Is the pandemic a threat or a hoax? Should you wear a mask or not? Should churches meet in person or online? Christians seem to be just as divided over the COVID-19 pandemic as those who are not united in Christ.
The only way for Christians to rediscover unity in a divisive time like this is by thinking biblically. To find a path toward reconciliation, Charles Morris spoke with Dr. Jeffrey Greenman, a Christian ethicist who is also the president of Regent College, an evangelical Christian graduate school in Vancouver. A portion of their conversation originally aired on part five of this series, but we’re including it here in its entirety.
Where is God in a Coronavirus World?
How belief in a loving and sovereign God helps us to make sense of and cope with the coronavirus outbreak.
We are living through a unique, era-defining period. Many of our old certainties have gone, whatever our view of the world and whatever our beliefs. The coronavirus pandemic and its effects are perplexing and unsettling for all of us.
How do we begin to think it through and cope with it?
In this short yet profound book, Oxford mathematics professor John Lennox examines the coronavirus in light of various belief systems and shows how the Christian worldview not only helps us to make sense of it, but also offers us a sure and certain hope to cling to.

Always, your ministry is in my heart and prayers. Please, please, please, give me feedback as to your thoughts concerning Dr. Peter McCullough’s many viewpoints of the pandemic. His viewpoints are in contrast to yours. He is a highly credentialed medical doctor and appears to be a credible Christian. Do you have any DETAILED review of his viewpoints? I would be glad to pay you for your feedback. Thank you. My prays are with you.
Hi Michael. Thanks for reaching out! I’ve passed your message along to Charles. I’m afraid we don’t have a detailed review of Dr. McCullough’s viewpoints, or anyone else’s, at this time. In this area, we report on what’s happening in the news from day to day and believe it is simply our role to encourage listeners to love their neighbors as best they can.
