Discover the unapologetically Christian and liberal Barack Obama-and how he represents the changing face of religion in American politics. You'd have to live in a cave to have avoided hearing about Barack Obama's woes as he deals with the crises arising from the close mentor relationship he had with the senior pastor at Trinity United Church of Christ, Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. How, people ask, could Sen. Obama represent as president people of all races, when he attended for 20 years a church permeated by a defining, if understandable, spirit of anger toward white America? There is, however, much more to the senator's faith than this one issue.
As early as 2004, as he delivered a powerful speech to the Democratic National Convention in Boston, he was taking a stand for his faith: "We worship an awesome God in the Blue States." In The Faith of Barack Obama, Stephen Mansfield explores Obama's religious faith without political or ideological bias. Because if a man's faith is sincere, it is the most important thing about him, and it is impossible to understand who he is and how he will lead without first understanding the religious vision that informs his life.
"You must read this perceptive and well written book. Then you will know why Barack Obama has
such a passion for justice and equity, such a gift for filling people of different generations with a newfound hope that things can and will change for the better. His inspiration comes from his faith; he is an ardent believer. Yes, he is a Christian and proud of it." ---ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU NOBEL LAUREATE
Barack Obama, a freshman senator from Illinois, might be the first to admit that the excitement generated by his presidential bid has little to do with what he has already done, and much more to do with hopes
In his interview with Christianity Today magazine, democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama talked about several issues that he believes will be viewed favorable by christians.
Barack Obama said that evangelicals have come to believe that democrats are anti-faith and that part of his job in the campaign is to make sure he is showing up and reaching out to share his faith experiences.
Barack Obama said that he is a devout Christian and believes in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Barack accepted christ before he went away to college at
Harvard. He states that his faith gives him a path to be cleansed of sin and to have eternal life. He goes on to say that he believes in the example that Jesus set by feeding the hungry, healing the sick and always prioritizing the least of these over the powerful. On abortion Barack Obama said he doesn't know anyone who is for abortion and that he feels it is important to start with a premise that has a goal that makes abortion less common.
Barack Obama said in the interview in Christianity Today Magazine, that we should discourage unwanted pregnancies and encourage adoption wherever possible. He also feels that we should prohibit late-term abortions, as long as there is an exception for the mother's health.
So far there are 122 books written about the Obama's, including several childrens books coming out next year.
