Overview

Becoming Jewish chronicles the author's lifelong search for spiritual meaning and a true religious home. Raised in a decidedly Christian yet theologically conflicted family, she never felt she fit into the churches of her childhood. Dissatisfied with pat answers and disillusioned by denominational hypocrisies, she embarked on an exploration of diverse religions. From New Age spirituality to fundamentalist revivals, she immersed herself in practices and communities hoping to find inner peace. Through personal revelations, crises of faith, and unexpected epiphanies, her path eventually led her to Judaism as an adult. There she discovered the missing piece of her identity. Candid, thoughtful, and enlightening, this memoir invites readers along on a journey to the heart of religious identity.
