How do you balance faith, sexuality, and life—without losing your mind? Finding the just right path to authenticity can feel overwhelming, even chaotic. But here’s the truth: authenticity is a journey, not a destination. And living your most fulfilled life as a gay, Jewish Rabbi (or whoever you are) is exactly the path you’re meant to walk.
Joining the conversation today is Rabbi Steven Greenberg—author of Wrestling with God and Men: Homosexuality in the Jewish Tradition and founder of Eshel, an Orthodox LGBTQ+ advocacy and support organization. He’s here to share his wisdom on embracing all of who you are and aligning faith, identity, and purpose as a Jewish queer man.
Key lessons you'll learn:- What does authenticity mean to you and how to live and define it on your terms
- Keys for embracing your Jewish (or other faith-based self) with your gayness
- How to get support from Eshel if you desire it
