NOW is in Wichita on Faith and Politics

Also, I have attached a link to a Pew Charitable Trust study on “young white evangelicals”. It is interesting to see what they (you) are thinking. In case your wondering, I don’t fit their category of “young white evangelical”. Two of the descriptors fit me but one doesn’t.

Obama’s Faith
Throughout the web, and many e-mail forwards, there has been a lot of discussion about Barak Obama’s faith. Some of these forwards and posts can only be described as mean spirited and others are simply ill informed. The link below is an interview with Obama published in Christianity Today. This is an opportunity to let him speak for himself.

Here is a link to Snopes which debunks some of the rumors of Obama’s Islamic faith.
