Interview with Obama
Relevant has an interesting interview with Barak Obama that focuses on issues of particular importance to Christians.


Obama the Christian?
And speaking of Obama, this article from BP News collects some of the ways Obama has described the Christian faith. Things like “I believe there are many paths to the same place, and that is a belief that there is a higher power, a belief that we are connected as a people.”
