Peter Maer Interviews Paul Raushenbush

The tables turn this week on The State of Belief, Interfaith Alliance’s weekly radio show and podcast. Our host, Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush, will be sitting in the guest chair, as former CBS News White House Correspondent Peter Maer interviews Paul about his first year at the helm of Interfaith Alliance. As the great-grandson of Baptist theologian Walter Rauschenbusch and Louis Brandeis, the first Jewish United States Supreme Court justice, Paul will also speak about how his family tree has impacted his personal faith and activism journey. A leading voice in national news for more than a quarter century, Peter Maer served as a White House correspondent with CBS News from 1986 to 2015. He covered presidential politics, major national and international disasters, and was awarded honors including the prestigious Edward R. Murrow Award, five Merriman Smith Awards for Presidential Coverage, and the Overseas Press Award. In 2019, Interfaith Alliance honored Peter with its annual Walter Cronkite Faith and Freedom Award. Peter currently serves on the Board of Interfaith Alliance. Peter and Paul also discuss the approaching 30th anniversary of Interfaith Alliance, the expansion of affiliate organizations across the U.S., and where Paul finds hope amid the pressing challenges our nation faces on a number of fronts.
