Rick Warren Discusses Faith, Politics, and Society on Meet the Press

Pastor Rick Warren of California's Saddleback Church gave a fascinating interview with David Gregory on "Meet the Press" this morning. Addressing the topic of thanksgiving, Warren also fielded questions from Gregory on a myriad of issues including- AIDS, abortion, the economy, fulfillment, gay marriage, homosexuality, and leadership among others.

I have watched the entire interview twice, and read the transcript in its entirety. And even after having absorbed much of Warren's interview, I remain stunned by its content. In fact, Warren's interview offers the statement of faith and politics mostly closely mirroring my own of any public official that I have ever heard. 

Naturally, the clip is a fascinating watch for your Sunday afternoon, and Warren speaks well for himself.  From this corner, it’s nice to find a kindred spirit of sorts, albeit a famous one. It makes me wonder whether more Christians are also moving in this same direction as regards faith and politics…
