E180: The CIA and the Bible. My interview with Nathan Morrison
Episode description
You might be wondering how the CIA and the Bible are connected!
Be prepared to go a journey. I was recently in Richmond Virginia preaching at the Courthouse Church of Christ. I had the opportunity to visit Washington D.C. with my friend Nathan Morrison. Nathan preaches at the Courthouse Church of Christ and is also one of the elders.
He shared with me the story of Hushai the Archite in the Old Testament. The CIA has known for a long time about Hushai and how he helped King David defeat Absalom. The CIA describes Hushai as the first Influence Agent. The CIA declassified how they broke down the story of Hushai and used it to train their agents to be influence agents. Find out the significance of all of this in this episode.
You can find where Nathan preaches in the link below and also the declassified PDF document the CIA released as well!
