Did God Create Us or Did We Create God?!

What Does this Question Mean for Today's Jews?

Identity & Responsibility, Text & Thought

Our traditional texts have always taught "In the beginning..." God did everything. But today's Jews think about God differently and approach that question with new world views. We will explore the question using traditional texts, modern commentary, and, most importantly, the views of participants to understand what God's role means to us today. All views of God are encouraged, and open minds are required.
