Christian Group Creates "Adopt a Liberal" Initiative

By Howard M. Friedman

Liberty Counsel (a Christian advocacy group) has begun a "prayer in action" initiative it calls "Adopt a Liberal." It is hoping to change the minds of political leaders it sees as "misguided". The initiative calls on participants to pick one of the eleven liberals on Liberty Counsel's list, or to choose some other liberal leader, and then:

Pray earnestly and intensely for them! Pray that the Lord would move upon them and cause them to be the kind of leaders who will encourage others to lead "a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence." We encourage you to seek the Lord's guidance on how to pray for your liberal(s), always allowing Him to temper your prayer with His love and mercy....

Please pray daily for the liberal(s) of your choice, so each can become a good influence on our Nation's culture. Prayer is powerful! It allows God to change the minds of those for whom we are praying. In fact, we fully expect that many of our adoptees will "graduate" from this prayer program with vivid testimonies of God having changed their lives and worldviews!
