From the Black Church to India: The Theology of Martin Luther King Jr.
posted on April 2, 2018Ahead of the 50th anniversary since the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated, Religion News Service’s Kimberly Winston writes about King’s theological development during his lifetime. King’s theology was shaped by diverse sources, from his family’s Baptist tradition to Reinhold Niebuhr’s Christian Realism.
