Conversion in Judaism in 10 Minutes

Thinking about joining the tribe? In Conversion to Judaism in 10 Minutes, we'll walk through what it actually means to become Jewish—from ancient Ruth's "your people will be my people" to modern-day mikvah dips, study sessions, and the occasional awkward circumcision conversation. We'll cover the big questions: Why do people convert? What steps are involved? How do different movements—Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, and beyond—handle the process? And of course, we'll sprinkle in the humor: because if you're going to change your entire religious identity, you should at least get a bagel at the end. This quick tour will give you the essentials—history, practice, and meaning—all in ten minutes, with none of the endless paperwork or rabbinic pop quizzes.
