Jewish interfaith relationships are increasingly common in the United States. An About.com article written by Lisa Katz (2006) reported the following statistics:
If you don't feel able to broach this on your own or talking seems to turn to arguing, seek interfaith counseling. Faith is a beautiful source of love and strength, do not let miscommunication rob your family of what this can be.
