Aliza and Ephraim Bulow: When A Spouse Loses Faith

This series is sponsored by our friends Sarala and Danny Turkel.

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Aliza and Ephraim Bulow, a married couple whose religious paths diverged over the course of their shared life.

With the loss of a son, granddaughter, and grandson, Ephraim lost his faith in Judaism while Aliza remained an observant believer. As they describe it, now, when making kiddush, Ephraim provides the words and Aliza brings the kavanah. In this episode we discuss:

  • What is it like to stay committed to a marriage when one partner loses their religious faith?
  • Is there any public embarrassment in having a spouse who is less observant than oneself?
  • What might make it worthwhile to keep a religiously divergent marriage intact?
  • Which Jewish experiences do Aliza and Ephraim still share?
Tune in to hear a conversation about the love and trust needed to hold a marriage with religious differences together.

Interview begins at 12:02.
