This is a big one, y’all! Jemar and Tyler had the privilege of recording this podcast during our LIVE “Free To Be” Juneteenth Event. Our guest is the incomparable Rev.

He is the Senior Pastor of the historic Watson Grove Baptist Church in Nashville, Tennessee, and one of the premier voices for justice and equity in the Black Church.Our topic today is a spin-off from his current sermon series at The Grove, entitled Not My Jesus: Reclaiming the Messiah from ‘Merica”.
