Course is approximately 30 hours
Join us for this deeply reflective online course designed to increase knowledge and skills at the intersection of faith and sexuality, which blends interactive peer-learning elements into an asynchronous, self-directed program.
Developed by the Religious Institute in collaboration with Rabbi Mychal B. Springer, director of the Center for Pastoral Education at JTS, this innovative course, suitable for Jewish clergy of all movements, addresses an urgent need among Jewish clergy to be well-prepared when supporting congregants with issues surrounding sexuality.
Topics include:
“I have greatly enjoyed this course: the way it took on the subject honestly and openly, the resources provided, and the emphasis on self-examination and reflection. The course has made me think differently about sexuality, power, sex, communication, and so many more dimensions of working in community.”
