More people are reaching for their faith, mentioning their practice and leaning into spiritual attachments. Batya Ungar-Sargon premieres a special edition of "Batya!" exploring the state of religion in America. Batya is joined by Pastor Alex Williams of the Institutional Church, Rabbi Motti Seligson, spokesperson for the Chabad‑Lubavitch movement, and Father Anthony Domenic Sorgie, pastor of the Immaculate Conception & Assumption of Our Lady Parish, to discuss why more Americans are turning toward religion again and viewing it as a positive force in society. Plus, television host and author Kathie Lee Gifford joins to discuss her new book and the role Christianity has played in her life and work. And Andrew Kolvet, a spokesperson for Turning Point USA, joins to discuss Charlie Kirk’s legacy of influencing young people on politics and religion. “It became apparent to the viewer that faith was this foundation, this wellspring of knowledge and love that Charlie lived his life so well,” Kolvet says. On "Batya!" host Batya Ungar-Sargon examines the week's most newsworthy topics with a wide range of newsmakers, prominent politicians, and media personalities.
