A Profile of Jewish Believers in the UK Church

More about the book

Exploring the current status of Jewish believers in the UK church, the book utilizes a multidisciplinary approach, including social identity and memory theories. Through interviews with Jewish church members and leaders, it reveals that the church often presents a hostile environment for Jewish identity. Unlike other diaspora communities, Jewish believers face pressure to abandon their traditions in favor of assimilation into Gentile practices. This dynamic creates a challenging atmosphere where Jewish identity is viewed with suspicion, echoing historical tensions faced by early Jewish Christians.
