A Candidate Shares His Faith
Here is an excerpt from Barack Obama's speech to last Summer's Call to Renewal meeting. I put his up, because I've jumped on his bandwagon. But he isn't the only one who speaks from faith. You can find other clips from Edwards, Giuliani, Clinton, Romney, and McCain at the Faith in Public Life blog.
A candidate's religious predilections aren't a test for office, but it is good to hear where they stand. What I appreciate is that progressives like Obama are willing to speak from their faith, but do so in a humble non-coercive way.
