Ben doesn't know what's going on...

"Ben doesn't know what's going on..." is a series where local church pastor Benjamin Lee learns the latest news he's kind of heard about, but hasn't really paid attention to. Hopefully, with the help of Daniel Silliman, a journalist and historian, he will be able to know a little bit more about what is going on.
