Chabads in Tenafly and West Orange Begin New JLI Course on Faith

(Courtesy of JLI) Lubavitch on the Palisades and Chabad of West Orange will present Wrestling With Faith, the new six-week course from the Rohr Jewish Learning Institute. Wrestling With Faith will explore questions such as: Why do I need God if I can live perfectly well without Him? Does God really care about the nuances of Jewish practice? Doesn’t the concept of “Jewish chosenness” seem racist? How can we relate to a loving and caring God amid the experience of tragedy and suffering? How do we reconcile compelling evidence for evolution and the age of the universe with a Bible that tells a different story? And: Is it even possible to develop a relationship with a God I cannot perceive with my five senses?

The Chabad of West Orange course will begin on October 22 at 7:30 p.m., and the Lubavitch on the Palisades course will begin on October 23, from 8-9:30 p.m..

The course will be given by Rabbi Mendy Kasowitz at Chabad of West Orange, and by Rabbi Mordechai Shain at Lubavitch on the Palisades in Tenafly. Registration required: www.myjli.com. Fee: $90. Early bird and multiple registration discounts available.
