I was a former Episcopal priest and this tradition is still very much an important part of my spiritual formation, despite the abuse I experienced in several of the churches I worked for before stepping away and eventually converting to Judaism.
What does it mean to leave Jesus and embrace Judaism? For me, it wasn’t about losing faith but finding home. From bluegrass hymns to Hebrew prayers, from sermons to Shavuot, I discovered that what I thought I left behind had simply transformed. This is my journey from cross to Torah, from dogma to dialogue, and from searching to belonging—one soul’s path to abundance, joy, and spiritual homecoming.
Caught in the crossfire of the Episcopal Church schism, I never fit—too liberal for conservatives, too conservative for progressives. As a female priest, wife, and mother under scrutiny, I lost my place in ministry. Yet in the quiet glow of Shabbat candles and the rhythm of Jewish practice, I found healing, authenticity, and a path back to God beyond the confines of church politics.
