Democratic Convention Benediction: Joel Hunter

Joel Hunter is the Pastor of a very large church in central florida. I have never heard him speak before, but I am interested in his position on things. He's a pro life, card carrying republican. Which makes him praying at the end of the Democratic Convention very intriguing. It's my understanding that a few years back, he was enlisted to be the head of the new Christian Coalition, and he accepted, but then he said he wanted to stop focusing so much on abortion and gay marriage and then focus on poverty, aids, environment, social injustice, and the leaders at the CC said...uh...No Thanks. (at least this is how i remember this going down)

So I give him props for trying to get the old school conservatives to start thinking about more than the same old thing.

(No One transcribed it yet, and i am not that Hardcore. If someone does it, i'll revise this)
