11 Questions for the Candidates

You need to read "Gordon MacDonald's 2008 Questions," a superb list of 11 questions he would ask of presidential candidates. He begins by referencing a secretive meeting some evangelical string-pullers held at a hotel in Florida, where Dobson and Falwell types (and probably Dobson and Falwell) were determing whom to annoint as the Christian candidate. MacDonald says, if he had been invited to that meeting, these are the questions he would want answered. It's great stuff. I'm right there with him.

Sadly, the answers to these questions that would satisfy me most likely would not come from Republicans.

"My passion is local church ministry."

Political ranting and piling on have taken the church away from its true passion, seeing lives transformed by the power of God. After all Jesus came to "seek and save those who are lost" not to take pokes at those in need of transformation and prayer.

Where is you passion?

Touche, Rick. My passion is still local church ministry, but I can get worked up about other things, too, and I certainly feel strong about what's been happening to my beloved country. But I'll try to stick to more positive things.

Thanks for the prod.
