My talk begins 35 mins in and ends with me leading the 3,500 assembled in singing “Amazing Grace”. No kidding.
Guess who snapped this photo below? None other than VP Joseph P. Biden, who of his own accord very graciously offered to take it for me! Amazing. I wonder how many photos there are of U.S. President’s taken by U. S. Vice Presidents?
DOES GOD WANT US TO CHANGE THE WORLD? And if so, how? If you’re in a hurry, let me cut to the chase: a.) yes – and b.) by doing what the Clapham Circle did: proving their faith through works, mostly among the poor and powerless, and working among the rich and powerful. There’s a little more to it, but if you must run, there’s the nuance-free answer which, like a sack lunch, you may take with you. If you can stay, I’ll begin by telling you about the night talkshow host Dick Cavett and I went to see Mickey Rooney perform. This is not a joke. [To continue click here.]

I’m sure you’ve heard about it: Pat Robertson said that Haiti’s founders made a pact with Satan in 1791 and the nation’s ongoing woes are a direct result of that diabolical beginning. Whoops! Um, what’s the Aramaic word for “retraction”?

Last weekend FoxNews analyst Brit Hume said something so beyond-the-pale that the outrage has been deafening.
Did he say Janet Napolitano was the love child of Susan Sontag and Elmer Fudd? Did he label the POTUS a “long-legged Mack Daddy”? Did he say that Adam Lambert was making him reconsider his position on Sharia Law? Those things would have been offensive — but he didn’t say any of them!
Then what did he say? Well, what he said was pretty bad, so if you are reading this aloud with kids around, you might want to tell them to go play with their Wii for a few minutes… Okay, are they out of the room? Great.

An extraordinary interview with the author Anne Rice, in which she discusses her return to Christian faith. To see it,

I just got my own copy in the mail and BOY does it look good. It’s a hardcover and it’s super orange!
