"The Fellowship," just so people know, is the group behind the National Prayer Breakfast, officially hosted every year by members of Congress but really organized by these guys. The President always attends, as do many congressmen and foreign dignitaries. My Dad has been loosly affiliated with them for many years--they are about the nicest, kindest, most welcoming (and scrupulously apolitical) group of evangelical Christians around. They help organize bible study groups among busy politicians--very purpously bi-partisan--and do absolutely no lobbying.

It's amazing that such a benign group can raise any hackles at all--but proves to me again that "spiritual warfare" is real.

God bless these guys--they'd appreciate your prayers FReepers....

I believe this Harper's article sheds a little more light.
