from Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey · host Blaze Podcast Network
Filmmaker Chad Jackson joins us today as we unpack his upcoming docuseries, "The MLK Project," which challenges the narrative that MLK was the unifying Christian hero we’ve been taught. From his ties to Marxist ideologies and rejection of core Christian doctrines to the manufactured moments that shaped the civil rights era, Chad reveals a side of MLK that will leave you questioning everything. We also explore how these ideologies continue to influence the church today, often to its peril. Share the Arrows 2025 is on October 11 in Dallas, Texas! Go to sharethearrows.com for tickets now!
