Excitement is building
Our family’s excitement continues to grow over the July 26th date for our final piece to the conversion puzzle, the Beit Din and Mikveh. My family has also been working towards being more frum and my wife has taken up an obsession with beautiful head coverings (Like I have with my Kippah collection). I have…

The Jewish Exponent article
The article about me by the Jewish Exponent has been released, click here to read it now. I think it turned out good, and will hopefully expose one of the principal reasons many in leadership roles have taken to that ideology in the first place. I’ve talked about identity here numerous times in my writings…
Change in conversion date and the Jewish Exponent
So, we found out the Mikveh was already booked full on the date our synagogue selected, so our Beit Din and Mikveh will be postponed until the end of July, just in time for my birthday! We’re still just as excited to see a point in which our conversion journey comes to fruition and we…

During this time I’ve read dozen upon dozens of books, took two classes to completion, and only missed two Shabbats throughout the duration. My family is…
So much is going on
Shabbat Shalom! So much is going on currently that is slowing down my eBook on converting to Judaism, including many good but work-intensive things. My memoirs, painting, getting interviewed for my art, getting a new car, B’nai Mitzvah classes, etcetera… but I am proud to say that construction on the new look and layout here…

Happy last day of Passover
Chag Pesach Sameach and Shabbat Shalom! We’re reform, which follows Israel’s cue on 7 days of Passover, so it’s the final night of Passover festivities and we’re celebrating the Feast of Moshiach with a large meal. Tomorrow day is the last tidbit of Passover, however, with it being our last dinner during the holiday, we’re…
Pesach continued…
Chag Pesach Sameach! As Pesach continues so does it that I am adding stuff here to this website (No this isn’t work to me at all). I’ve added a new section to the “I am,” articles section based on the mind and helping others. I am positive that my readers can benefit from my knowledge…
