The interview took place during the church’s weekend services. Graham thanked Abbott for leading the fight against an unprecedented crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, and asked if he had a personal story of a crisis.

Abbott said his experience of the crisis in his own life was helping him lead in the crisis today.
