Spirituality and the Modern Orthodox Yeshiva Part I
This edition of INSIDE THE CONVERSATION kicks off a series on Spirituality and the Modern Orthodox Yeshiva High School. How can we help students create and deepen their inner spiritual lives? How can we utilize research on spiritual development in adolescents to encourage Jewish practice that is imbued with meaning? Rabbanit Lisa Schlaff and Dr. Gillian Steinberg coordinated the eight member Faculty Beit Midrash (FBM) group that brainstormed and researched these questions. This edition of Inside the Conversation features two of the FBM research papers and a podcast discussing the group’s work on spirituality.
