“Avodah zara (idolatry) goes beyond just bowing to idols—it includes any practices or beliefs that deviate from exclusive devotion to the One God, as outlined by the Rambam (Mishneh Torah, Hilchot Avodat Kochavim 2:5). Most are unaware of these subtle forms, but once realized through our rigorous course, students are quick to shed the practice, ensuring your commitment meets the Beit Din’s halachic standards.”
“We warmly invite you to explore your journey toward Torah obedience with us! Our rigorous avodah zara course, which addresses idolatry, has helped many if not most who study it, often from diverse backgrounds, gain clarity and shed practices that deviate from exclusive devotion to the One God. We encourage you to see if this course resonates with you as a first step toward joining the Children of Israel in covenant.”

“The avodah zara course is mandatory and required before any other topic is studied. If you do not score a 100, expect a follow up question from the beit din rabbi who will answer any of your questions or explain a difficult to understand aspect of the topic. All other courses are are not scrutinized in the same manner. You will be free to contact us with any questions you have. All other topics are self-paced so you are in control.
“While conversion is an individual commitment, we encourage family interest. We can provide resources or guidance for family members exploring Torah observance alongside you.”
“Your spouse’s lack of interest does not prevent your conversion journey. Our program focuses on your individual commitment to Torah obedience and joining the Children of Israel in covenant. We offer guidance to navigate family dynamics, including resources to help your spouse understand your path, while respecting their choice. We address mixed marriage concerns and can assist through periodic online follow-ups, providing support to maintain harmony in your household, answering any questions you may have along the way. Our community and rabbinic guidance ensure you thrive in your new Jewish life, even within a mixed marriage, with strategies to balance your observance and family relationships”
“You’re correct that Orthodox Judaism does not recognize marriages between a Jew and a non-Jew as halachically valid under traditional law. However, your conversion through our program, overseen by an Orthodox Beit Din, establishes you as a full member of the Children of Israel in covenant. If your spouse is not interested in converting, your marriage’s status pre-conversion remains a personal matter, but post-conversion, it becomes a mixed marriage. We will offer rabbinic guidance and community support to navigate the halachic and practical implications, ensuring you thrive in your new Jewish life while respecting your family dynamics and answer any questions you may have along the way.”
