This week’s Think Tank explores the intersection of religious values and political activity.

Our guests are three very thoughtful people who have in various ways dealt with the intersection of values, religion and politics.

  • Rabbi Robert Kravitz has been involved in civil and human rights for decades. After delivering a sermon addressing morality and honesty in government, he had to leave his part-time congregation.
  • Jerry Lewis, a former Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints stake president and one-time Republican state senator who now runs a school for homeless kids.

  • Rick DeGraw, once a Presbyterian minister who became a longtime Democratic activist in Arizona.


The Think Tank airs on KTAR 92.3 FM on Saturday 3-4 p.m. and Sunday 9-10 p.m.

Podcasts are available after broadcast.
