Inclusive & Inclusive

Faith Communities 1 Faith Communities 2

As faith communities continue to struggle against the secular world there is a tendency for them to try to become more inclusive without really being inclusive. For they might open up doors for individuals to participate in services that have felt left behind but do they then close the doors of those that are holding them.  Faith communities must be inclusive to those who have felt that they were in the back of the bus without having  those that are driving get off. For example Shul’s/Synagogues should open up new doors for women and young adults to participate in spiritual life while making ways for those more observant to feel comfortable attending as well (Mechitza area).  Inclusive should be for all those who seek a closer relationship to G-D whichever steps they are willing to take as long as they will not be stepping on others.  Or if you open the door on one side make sure the window is open on the other side.
