Engaging in Jewish life can be a source of deep value and meaning, not only for Jews, but equally for their partners from other faith traditions, and most importantly for their children. Through historical context, statistics, personal narratives, and practical guidance Edmund Case, founder of InterfaithFamily, outlines three invitations to engage in Jewish life that can be extended to interfaith couples. He charts three road maps to adopt radically inclusive attitudes and policies that treat interfaith couples and partners from different faith traditions as equal and full participants in Jewish life, and implement programming designed to engage them. Together these approaches can revitalize and sustain Jewish tradition.
