Home > Conscious Loving >Q&A Joel Crohn



I'm a Christian man and my fiancee is a woman from a Reform Jewish background. What are the most common problems a Christian/Jewish marriage will face and should we immediately seek help?


Too often interfaith couples approach marriage minimizing their differences because it feels so good to be in love. Especially with the pressures of a wedding approaching, it sometimes seems best to sweep differences under the rug in the hope that "We can just make it through the wedding." This is often a big mistake. I think of the period between engagement and ceremony as the "escrow period" of love. It's stressful, but there is no better time to face your differences. Most importantly, clarify confusion and mixed feelings about your own religious background before you try to work things out with your partner. And yes, finding a counselor to help you work through these issues can be the best relationship insurance. .
