‘The Family’ on Netflix: Which Politicians are Connected to the Secret Christian Group, According to the Documentary?
By Anna Menta
Published Aug. 9, 2019, 12:30 p.m. ET

The series is based partly on Jeff Sharlet’s 2008 book The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power. Sharlet, a journalist, also executive produced and narrates the series, walking viewers through his own brief stint living with members of The Family in a communal-living house, where he describes a cult-like experience. The Family, Sharlet explains, has an extremely unorthodox reading of the Bible and an enigmatic motto: “Jesus plus nothing.”
