Taking Judaism Personally is an intimate look not only at the inner meaning of being Jewish, but also at the way Americans construct a faith out of the spiritual chaos of contemporary society. Judy Petsonk, a writer and teacher in the vanguard of the Jewish renewal movement, shows how she and many others have rediscovered comfort, joy, and wonder in Judaism. They are the creators of the Havurah movement: circles of close friends who study, pray, and celebrate important events together. They are Jewish feminists struggling to redefine their role within traditional Judaism. They are young families looking for new approaches to religious education and childrearing. Searching their souls and the traditional sources, they have achieved a meaningful and satisfying form of spirituality.
Rich with stories (including the author's) of twenty years of Jewish renewal, Taking Judaism Personally provides examples and inspiration for Jews seeking to create their own connection to Jewish tradition and community.

Many Jews have given up on standard Jewish observance. They find it inaccessible or unable to meet their spiritual needs. But the lively, concerned, and creative people in the vanguard of Jewish renewal have interpreted traditional Jewish sources with an innovative eye--forging new ways of practicing their religion. Petsonk tells the stories of these people.
