In this &quot;thoughtful, introspective, and moving account&quot; (<i>The Washington Post</i>) , former NBC news anchor David Gregory probes various religious traditions to better understand his own faith and answer important questions about who we want to be and what we believe.<br><br>When David Gregory was a reporter covering the White House, President George W. Bush asked him a question: &quot;Gregory, how's your faith?&quot; Raised by a Catholic mother and a Jewish dad, David had a strong sense of Jewish cultural and ethnic identity, but no real belief - until his marriage to a Protestant woman of strong faith inspired him to explore his spirituality for himself and his growing family.<br> <br>His spiritual journey has taken him inside Christian mega-churches and into the world of Orthodox Judaism. He's gone deep into Bible study and asked big questions of America's most thoughtful religious leaders, including evangelical preacher Joel Osteen; Mohamed Magid, the imam of a big northern Virginia mosque; and Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the Catholic Archbishop of New York. He has even reconsidered his own childhood, where a belief in God might have helped him through his mother's struggle with alcoholism.<br> <br><i>How's Your Faith?</i> is &quot;an unusual, probing book, part memoir, part cri de coeur, part exploration&quot; (<i>The Boston Globe</i>) . David explores spirituality with the curiosity and dedication you would expect from a seasoned journalist, coupled with the &quot;genuine and deeply felt&quot; (<i>The Wall Street Journal</i>) yearning of a true seeker of faith.
