In this episode, Rachel Kushner opens up about her journey through grief and gratitude. Rachel introduces the Shema, a foundational prayer in Jewish life. She unpacks its meaning, its call to love God with all your heart, soul, and strength, and how Jesus brought that to life. Rachel also shares easy, meaningful ways families can live out the Shema daily. This episode is part deep faith, part practical tips, and part "why is there a scroll on my doorframe?"
