Summary
More Americans have been killed by Covid-19 in two months than were killed in the Vietnam War in 20 years. Some Christians are responding to these uncertain times with familiar platitudes—none more popular than, "God is in control." But is he? Mike Erre is back to talk about the tension in Scripture between God's sovereignty and human free will. Also this week: What's so special about lama blood? Churchgoers attempting to conduct a drive-in service get ticketed. A conspiracy theory growing among Christians says Dr. Fauci planned the pandemic in league with the antichrist. Has gullibility now become a Christian virtue? Skye shares his family's quarantine rules, and Phil thinks bathing is overrated.
