Part of the series: The Soul of the Nation with Jim Wallis

The Deep Connection of Faith and Science with Dr. Francis Collins

9763d1d8-25d8-489e-af9a-6a2b474e8d4f.mp3

Rev. Jim Wallis and Director of the National Institutes of Health Dr. Francis Collins break down the current state of our country with COVID-19 and how the faith community can help with vaccine distribution and messaging.  Collins shares his journey of religion and science, and how he's found his harmony between the two.

"It's heartbreaking. Most people I don't think associate themselves with those extremes but they haven't necessarily found a lot of opportunities to discover the harmony and one of my small goals here since I began writing about this was to try to put out there that this is an unnecessary conflict. In most polls to Americans, do science and faith have anything in common? Can they get along? You'll encounter a lot of skepticism, which is hurting us as individuals, as families, as communities, and as a country."
