Krista Tippett - "Speaking of Faith"

Speaking of Faith

Krista Tippett , host of the program “Speaking of Faith”
on American Public Media, discusses some of the deep questions that compelled her to create and launch the nation's premiere public radio program on religion. In her book, Krista describes how her understanding of religion and spirituality as a force in the modern world have been shaped by her conversation partners and intellectual heroes from Elie Wiesel and Dietrich Bonhoeffer to Zen monk Thich Nhat Hanh and Nobel Laureate Wangari Maathai.

Her book is revealing and analytical, at once a journalistic and theological exploration of the reasons religion has moved front and center in our culture since the radio program began to pilot in the late 1990s.
