According to the BusinessWeek.com report, Cameron's day began with the resignation of Culture Secretary Maria Miller, on Wednesday morning. Later, Cameron candidly told the gathering of Christian leaders and politicians that "The Bible tells us to bear one another's burdens. After the day I've had, I'm definitely looking for volunteers."

During the reception, the PM reportedly thanked the churches for their compassionate work amongst their communities; mentioning the growth of food banks for the poor, and the plight of persecuted Christians throughout the world.

Cameron said he finds "a little bit of peace and hopefully a bit of guidance" there, according to the report.

BusinessWeek noted that recent prime ministers have typically avoided the subject of personal faith, keeping it more private.
