How George W. Bush Got David Gregory Hooked on Spirituality

The Leonard Lopate Show | Sep 15, 2015

Former NBC newsman and Meet the Press moderator David Gregory talks about his spiritual journey. Before his departure from NBC, while David was covering the White House, he had the unusual experience of being asked by President George W. Bush "How's your faith?" Raised by a Jewish father and Catholic mother, Gregory had a sense of cultural identity but no real belief system. And President Bush's question, struck a chord and sent him on a quest to find an answer. He chronicles that journey in his new book, How’s Your Faith: An Unlikely Spiritual Journey.
