Mike Rowe, host of "Somebody's Gotta Do It," is known as a famed spokesman, narrator and TV personality, and in a recent interview with Pure Flix, he shared some fascinating details about his upbringing.
Among them: Rowe's grandfather, a skilled tradesman, helped build the church he grew up attending.
For Rowe — whose show "Somebody's Gotta Do It" is now streaming on Pure Flix — the local church was very much a part of the fabric of his younger years.
"Faith and church for me growing up wasn't an event — it wasn't a thing that was introduced to me," he said. "It was a thing that was just there. It was there like the stable had always been there ... there were Lenten dinners on Wednesday nights. I was in the Boy Scouts [at the church]. For me, church and the faith that came with it were as much a part of the community as anything else."
