SUMMARY:God: It's Complicated
DESCRIPTION:Who\, or what\, is God? Well\, it depends who you ask! Join Rabbi ArianaSilverman for a 5-part course exploring different perspectives on God. \nIf you’re not sure what you believe\, or if what you believe feels differentfrom what you’ve read in the Torah or our prayer book\, you’re not alone. Infact\, theologians have presented very different understandings of God over thecourse of our history. In this class\, we’ll explore some of those theologiestogether. Maybe your understanding of God will become a little clearer\, orperhaps more complicated – in a good way! \nStudents are encouraged to get a copy of _Finding God: Selected Responses(Revised Edition)_  by Rifat Sonsino and Daniel Syme. \nRegistration is available at a sliding scale from $54-$180. This registrationfee covers your enrollment for all five sessions\, with snacks provided at eachmeeting. Cost should not be a barrier to participation. For financialassistance\, please email Marisa at mahoney@downtownsynagogue.org. \nClass schedule is as follows: \nThursday\, May 7 \nThursday\, May 14 \n*no class on May 21 – join us at Tikkun Leil Shavuot instead!* \nThursday\, May 28 \nThursday\, June 4 \nThursday\, June 11 \nAll classes will be held from 7:00-8:30pm \nOrganized by: Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/15584
