1040: Hoover's New Boss // Spiritual Lessons from Black & White America 31 (Eric Ludy)

Sep 11, 2023
59:26

This is the thirty-first installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this episode, he dives into the meteoric rise of Bobby Kennedy to the position of Attorney General of the United States in late 1960. As a thirty-five year old, Bobby became the boss of the most legendary and intimidating man in Washington--The seventy-year-old J. Edgar Hoover--Director of the FBI. Sparks flew when Bobby stepped into this position, and the comical relationship that unfolded between these two men supplies us as Christians today with an amazing peek into the inner workings of our own relationship with spiritual change and growth.
