Mandi: Deconversion from Messianic Judaism

Published: Oct. 2, 2023, midnight

b'This week\\u2019s guest is Mandi. Mandi grew up in a mixed Jewish and Christian home, attending a Messianic temple. She loved every minute of it as a kid and cherishes her memories.

In high school and as a young adult, though, she began to ask questions, and as we\\u2019ve seen in religion time and time again, her questions were dismissed.

After incredible and full years of life\\u2014moving to Israel, returning to Georgia, joining an Orthodox Jewish community, getting married, and having children\\u2014she identifies as an agnostic atheist.

\\u201cIt\\u2019s been so good for my mental health, to not believe, to stop praying.\\u201d
