MacArthur is mired in a legal battle with California officials over his church holding indoor worship services during the state’s second-imposed lockdown in response to COVID-19.
In an interview with the Falkirk Center at Liberty University in August, MacArthur discussed a phone conversation he had with the president over the litigation.
