In Good Faith: Christmas isn't a Zoom call

In Good Faith: Christmas isn't a Zoom call

By: Jim Benson

There's a scene in “Saving Private Ryan” that has been replayed more than 600,000 times since 1900: Two uniformed military officers approach a home where a mother, whose sons serve away at war, breaks down in tears. She knows why they've come. Her soldier-son has died in combat and a face-to-face visit is the right thing to do.
