Join me in this captivating episode of New South Christians as I sit down with Audrey Barash, a returning college student with a unique religious background. Audrey shares her experiences growing up in an ultra-Orthodox Jewish family and how her faith has evolved over time. We delve into topics such as the role of women in the Jewish community, the interpretation of scripture, and the acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community.
Audrey also opens up about the challenges of living in the South, where conservative beliefs often clash with her own. We discuss the changing landscape of faith among Gen Z, with many young people questioning traditional religious institutions and seeking a more personal connection with God. We also touch on the pressing issues of anxiety, depression, and the alarming suicide rates among young people today.
Despite the challenges, Audrey remains optimistic about her economic future and her faith journey. She shares her belief in striving for the best, surrounding oneself with positive energy, and embracing new opportunities. This thought-provoking conversation sheds light on the diverse perspectives within the Jewish faith and offers valuable insights into the evolving religious landscape of our generation.
