Saying 'I Do' in an Interfaith Relationship
Begins at 21 min
Christmas tree or Menorah? Honey baked ham or brisket? CCD or Hebrew School? For the 27 percent of Americans in mixed-religion marriages, (many of which are Catholic-Jewish,) what to do about holidays and religious school are just a few of the worries that often come up. Interfaith marriage counselor Mary Helen Rosenbaum says, fear not: there are practical ways to make it work over the long haul. We’re also joined by two interfaith couples who share their own experience. From February 2008.
