Sean McGever, historian and author of "Ownership: The Evangelical Legacy of Slavery," discusses the uncomfortable truths about evangelical founders like Jonathan Edwards, John Wesley, and George Whitefield. He explores their blind spots regarding slavery, the justification of their actions in the context of the 18th century, and the evolving church perspectives on moral issues. McGever emphasizes the need for self-reflection on historical moral failures and encourages a nuanced understanding of church leaders, their legacies, and ongoing cultural blind spots.
