Item Description
In these three moving and thought-provoking documentaries, renowned journalist Bill Moyers explores gripping questions long pondered by scholars and commoners alike: Why does religion poison some lives but give profound purpose to others? What do different religious beliefs say about the human spirit? And how has one beloved hymn inspired so many people? Join Moyers as he sits down with noted intellectuals from a wide spectrum of beliefs to discuss their search for meaning.
