My G-d
Defining the Divine
Who is G-d? What is G-d really like? And how does our understanding of G-d affect the way we live?

Some of the biggest questions in life are also the ones we rarely get to ask. Who is G-d? Why did G-d create the world? Does G-d care about what we do? And is there room for doubt in Jewish faith?
Join us for My G-d, a fascinating six-week journey exploring Judaism's understanding of the Divine. Through engaging discussions and surprising insights from Jewish wisdom, we'll examine G-d's nature, our purpose, and what it means to have a relationship with G-d.
No prior Jewish learning is necessary. Come with your questions, your curiosity, and an open mind.
What We'll Explore
Six thought-provoking sessions exploring the questions at the heart of Jewish belief.
The Basics
What is G-d? Where is G-d? And who created G-d?
His Nature
Does G-d have feelings? Does G-d communicate with us? And why does G-d have so many names?
His Reasons
Why did G-d create us? Why does evil exist? And can we question G-d?
His Expectations
Must we believe in G-d? Is doubt acceptable? Can we connect with G-d without being religious?
His Paradoxes
If G-d knows the future, do we have free choice? Can our prayers change G-d's mind?
Our Relationship
Why can't we see G-d? Can faith and science coexist? How can we build a meaningful relationship with the Divine?
