How do you make Jewish decisions?

Every serious Reform Jew confronts this question quite often.

Rabbi Stanway is delighted to offer the course: Living Ethics – An Investigation of Reform Halacha through Case Studies.  This is a six session course, with each session lasting about an hour to an hour and a half.  It is free for members of Beth Miriam and non-members are asked to make a $36 donation to the temple. These six lessons written take learners through the process of how Reform Jewish halachah evolves. Learners study particular cases of responsa (modern questions to and answers from the CCAR Responsa Committee), addressing issues from nuclear war to abortion to plastic surgery.

This unit will prepare adult learners to continue their study of Reform responsa in an ongoing study groupParticipants should bring a binder for materials and paper for notes and writing utensils
