In the final episode, Rabbi David Minkus reflects on the central tension of the series: how do we hold boundaries that are not shaped by fear and gatekeeping? With some familiar voices, and a couple new ones, David explores what it means to draw lines with empathy, to lead with care, and to imagine a Jewish future rooted not in judgment, but in dignity, love, and trust.
