How do we evaluate risks when it comes to COVID-19? Not always very well. We talk to Joshua Weitz, professor at Georgia Tech who developed a tool to show people their risk of catching COVID-19. Also, even as giving drops off because of the pandemic, some churches say they are called to the work more than ever. We talk to Pastor Robert Turner of the Vernon AME Church in Tulsa about how the pandemic is affecting church giving.
