  • "David French: My Journey as a Christian to the New York Times" — Season07, Episode 3
    2024/12/05
    In today’s episode, Josh and Betsy are joined via phone by David French – a well-known writer and political commentator. David is an attorney, a former senior editor of The Dispatch, a professor at Lipscomb University, and a frequent columnist for The New York Times. David discusses his work at The New York Times, and what it is like to be a part of such a prestigious – and sometimes liberal – organization. He reflects on his influence as a man of faith, a follower of Christ, and shares his journey from a small Christian college to the NY Times. And – as another avid fan of J.R.R. Tolkien, he joins Josh and Betsy in ‘geeking out’ over the Amazon Prime series, “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power”!
