Pray for Kabeer, Chapter I: The School Play, the Minister of Defense and the Fall of a Hero

In the first installment of our Serial Longform series, 'Pray for Kabeer,' we delve into the former Packers star's theological evolution, his discovery of a new religious movement, his transformation from revered to feared and why he feels he--and his ministry--are misunderstood.
