Engage with Jewish values, celebrations and spirituality. Ask questions and discover multiple perspectives. Introduction to Judaism is an engaging multi-session course for adults interested in exploring Jewish life through a Reform lens. Open to all, this course is designed for interfaith couples, spiritual seekers, individuals considering conversion, and Jews of all stripes who want a meaningful adult Jewish learning experience. 

Wherever you are on your journey with Judaism, this class is designed to be a safe and welcoming place for you to explore. Topics include holidays, life cycle celebrations, core beliefs, prayer, the Bible and other sacred texts, antisemitism and the Holocaust, Israel, the North American Jewish experience, and the diversity of the Jewish people today. Join Rabbi Natan on a fascinating journey through Jewish space and time throughout the centuries. 

For those enrolling within the context of a relationship, we invite both partners to participate. While not a conversion class, and open to Jews and non-Jews alike, the ARA (Atlanta Rabbinic Association) has fully endorsed this class as a prerequisite for those planning or considering conversion.
