Speaking of Faith; Why Religion Matters—and How to Talk About It(200 T) is by creator and host of public radio’s Speaking of Faith program Krista Tippett, who has spent countless hours doing just that. Her conversations with religious authorities, scholars and others are borne of a treasure trove of intellect and interest, including her own. Overflowing with gems of wisdom, Tippett is a master of nuance for whom the great questions of belief transcend the simple an-swers that modern religion too often supplies. This is a vision of faith as a grand and unifying struggle with the very nature of being, and it is both deeply thought and deeply felt.
