When Gov. Roy Cooper banned large gatherings in North Carolina, it turned the lives of faith leaders upside down.
This week, Tim and Ben talk with a rabbi, imam, and executive pastor to discover how they are dealing with these restrictions while still ministering to their congregations. We’ll talk about how technology is saving the day, how rituals and upcoming holidays will be impacted, and how they are dealing with funerals in this uncertain time.
We also ask all three faith leaders why God allows this to happen. While they represent three very different religions, their messages are incredibly similar.
