Episode Details

After eight years of guiding Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue through unimaginable grief, legal battles, and pandemic hardship, Rabbi Jeffrey Myers is stepping down — a chapter closing as a new era begins. He took the helm just a year before the 2018 synagogue shooting that killed 11, and through it all, he found strength in Psalms and even pop culture, turning pain into purpose. Now, with a new synagogue set to open in 2028 — complete with a memorial, education exhibits, and worship spaces — the community stands resilient. At 70, Myers is returning to New Jersey to write, travel, and make room for fresh leadership, leaving behind a legacy of courage, healing, and unwavering hope.
