Today on Planet Money:

Plus, a divine Economist House Call, and after the jump, links from you.

-- Renee Rico, a Presbyterian pastor in California, asks housecalling economist Simon Johnson about the church's annual pledge drive.

-- Niall Ferguson, author of The Ascent of Money, takes the one question that keeps on giving: Where did all the money go?
