Chaplian Fired over Name of Jesus

An honorary chaplain was removed from his position because he used the name of Jesus in a prayer. Ron Baity is the pastor of Berean Baptist Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He closed a prayer at the state house of representatives by invoking the name of Jesus. House Speaker Joe Hackney took Baity out of the week-long job after a House clerk asked to see a copy of the prayer and saw that Baity intended to mention the name of Jesus.
