Now that Obama and his family are without a church, he's going to be getting a lot of invitations to join various congregations. It will be interesting to see what he decides to do there. They say he'll wait till after the election to choose where he'll go, but who knows he might find what works for him before that.
Anyway, here's one of the invitations to Obama to worship today:
Dear Sen. Obama,
Now that you are back on the market, so to speak, having abandoned your church home of two decades to allow your friends to "worship in peace", I'd like to invite you to consider my church. Let me tell you a little bit about it.
...
Sen. Obama, if you love Jesus, and enjoy the fellowship of others who share your faith in Christ, then you and Michelle and the girls might feel at home here.
Of course, we're not perfect. We lack some of the features to which your family has become accustomed. For example, our pastors never talk about political candidates from the pulpit. There's not a whole lot of angry screaming -- in fact, none. No preacher here has ever called down God's condemnation upon our native land.
...
If you like liberation theology, at our church you get it, but it's not limited to the poor, or to any particular race, because "if the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed" (John 8:38) no matter what you look like or how much you earn.
So, Sen. Obama, now that you're church shopping, why not stop by?
For a man who's all about "change" this one might be refreshing.
Sincerely,
Scott Ott
If I had to guess, the only church we'll see him for the rest of the election season at is "The Church of Obama"
