Donald Miller: Prayer at the DNC
The Benediction for the Democratic National Convention on Monday Night
I was honored to deliver the closing prayer at the DNC on Monday night. Evangelical voices have been scarce within this party, perhaps since the Carter administration. But as strides are being made on key issues of sanctity of life and social justice, as well as peaceful solutions to world conflicts, more and more evangelicals are taking a closer look at options certain members of the Democratic Party are beginning to deliver. There is a long way to go, but sending a message to Washington that no single party has the Christian community in their pocket, thus causing each party to carefully consider the issues most important to us, is, in my opinion, a positive evolution. I am glad that, for the most part, the dialogue has been constructive and positive. Will you join me in keeping the conversation thoughtful and not reactionary?

***this post bears no reflection of my personal choice of the next president. (mostly because i haven't chosen yet. but, call it my maternal instinct kicking in, but all the sudden i have a profound interest in the current decisions are local, state and national leaders are making that will affect Whitaker and our future kiddos)
