Scenario

When friends disagree about staying versus leaving a compromised religious community

My best friend and I have been in the same synagogue for twenty years, but since the rabbi left under suspicious circumstances, she wants to stay and fight for change while I think the whole institution is rotten, and we can't seem to have Shabbat dinner anymore without this tension filling the room.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who built their friendship around shared spiritual practice are discovering that crisis reveals different definitions of loyalty.
