Specificatii
A book on the growing number of interfaith families raising
children in two religionsSusan Katz Miller grew up with a Jewish
father and Christian mother, and was raised Jewish. Now in an
interfaith marriage herself, she is one of the growing number of
Americans who are boldly electing to raise children with both
faiths, rather than in one religion or the other (or without
religion). In Being Both, Miller draws on original surveys and
interviews with parents, students, teachers, and clergy, as well as
on her own journey, to chronicle this controversial grassroots
movement. Almost a third of all married Americans have a spouse
from another religion, and there are now more children in
Christian-Jewish interfaith families than in families with two
Jewish parents. Across the country, many of these families are
challenging the traditional idea that they must choose one
religion. In some cities, more interfaith couples are raising
children with both than Jewish-only. What does this mean for these
families, for these children, and for religious institutions?
Miller argues that there are distinct benefits for families who
reject the false choice of either/or and instead embrace the
synergy of being both. Reporting on hundreds of parents and
children who celebrate two religions, she documents why couples
make this choice, and how children appreciate dual-faith education.
But often families who choose both have trouble finding supportive
clergy and community. To that end, Miller includes advice and
resources for interfaith families planning baby-welcoming and
coming-of-age ceremonies, and seeking to find or form interfaith
education programs. She also addresses the difficulties that
interfaith families can encounter, wrestling with spiritual
questions (Will our children believe in God?) and challenges (How
do we talk about Jesus?). And finally, looking beyond Judaism and
Christianity, Being Both provides the first glimpse of the next
interfaith wave: intermarried Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist couples
raising children in two religions. Being Both is at once a rousing
declaration of the benefits of celebrating two religions, and a
blueprint for interfaith families who are seeking guidance and
community support. From the Hardcover edition.
