A good article on public prayer. I think the points are well made and should be well taken, but that doesn’t mean it won’t tweak you. A important bit of information to understanding the author’s opposition to Christian prayer before public events:
“I am not talking about a politically correct desire to avoid giving offense.”
Another key quote:
“Our decades-long fight to restore or institute prayer in the public square while neglecting to actually pray for the public good represents a staggering act of faithlessness.”
I would very much encourage you to take a look.
