When religious study groups become spaces for faith questioning

My book club meets at our synagogue and we've been reading about faith and doubt, and now several members are sharing that they're struggling with belief but don't want to leave our Jewish community. We're realizing we don't know how to talk about questioning faith while staying connected to Jewish identity and culture.

What we've seen

Learning communities within religious contexts become unexpected venues for doubt and questioning, challenging the group to hold both inquiry and belonging simultaneously.
