In this edition of Perspective...

Dunn Juror Speaks
Last Saturday, a Florida jury convicted software developer Michael Dunn of three counts of attempted murder for firing on a car with four teens inside.  However, the jury could not come to a decision on the most serious charge of first degree murder.  The altercation began with an argument over loud music and ended with the death of 17-year-old Jordan Davis.  Now, one of the jurors is speaking out.  Here's ABC News Senior National Correspondent Byron Pitts.

Gay in Russia
In the lead up to the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia's anti-gay laws spent some time in the spotlight, but what do those laws mean for those living there?  As the Winter games wind down, we bring you a report from Moscow, where ABC News Chief Foreign Correspondent Terry Moran reports on what it's like for the gay community.

Test of Faith
This week pastor Jamie Coots died from a poisonious snake bite.  It was the tenth time he'd been bitten and the tenth and final time he refused medical treatment.  He's just one member of a community of Christians who say vipers are as vital to their faith as the Bible itself.  Here's ABC's Juju Chang.

The Man Behind the Wolf
The Wolf of Wall Street grossed over 300-million dollars worldwide and has been nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director.  That  nominee for Best Director is Martin Scorsese, who sat down with ABC's Chris Connelly to talk about the film.

Son of God
For it's latest source of inspiration, Hollywood is going back to biblical times, to a subject that's already scored high ratings on a T-V miniseries.  Now the story of Jesus is moving to the big screen.  Here's ABC's David Wright.

Host:  Alex Stone
Producer:  Colin Tipton
