An Evangelical Manifesto

This morning a group of Christian leaders will present what they are calling an Evangelical Manifesto. It chastises Evangelicals for being used by the political parties, suggesting the focus on politics has diminished the Gospel. Among the 80 signers: Megachurch pastor Rick Warren, author Os Guinness, Fuller Theological Seminary president Richard Mouw and Timothy George, founding dean of Beeson Divinity School. Among those who did not sign the document: Focus on the Family founder James Dobson and Richard Land, head of the public policy arm for the Southern Baptist Convention. Read the Manifesto here.
