The Indiana-based Islamic Society of North America will be holding its annual convention -- the largest yearly gathering of Muslims on the continent -- in Washington, D.C. over the Fourth of July weekend. And while convention leaders are holding out hope that President Barack Obama might make the convention his latest stop in his outreach to the Muslim world, the convention has landed another pretty big fish as a featured speaker.
Purpose-Driven pastor Rick Warren has agreed to appear at the convention and be part of its main session discussing the convention's theme -- "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." Joining Warren for the session is ISNA President Ingrid Mattson and noted Muslim scholar Hamza Yusuf.

He just wants to be voted Miss Congeniality.
Exactly. God may be able to use him there. After all, he did use a donkey once to get Balaam’s attention and many people here think the same of Rick Warren...
Frankly, thus guy is a joke. Where are the Thomas More’s in our society willing to fight and die for what is true instead of securing accommodations for false doctrines.

I have been following the watering down of the faith -— from “Willow Creek Church Association” for many years....I left a church 10 years ago that went off the deep end after joining the Willow Creek “seeker sensitive” movement.
I find it interesting that these guys give a stage to the likes of Clinton, Gore, and Obama, but never mention or help out a conservative....
The don’t preach the message of the Gospel, they preach the message of “lets all get along” = Tolerance.
"Sharia driven life"
There will be a wealth of information to be gathered in the small groups that will meet, not in the general meeting, which will be mostly BS.
I don’t have a problem with Warren speaking to the Muzzies, as long as he presents the Plan of Salvation at the round table.

Don’t bet on it from that prostitute.
Do you think God used Rick Warren when he went to Syria to hobknob with Assad while they were killing and injuring US troops inside Iraq?
Not me.
I have no idea. He used Balaam’s donkey for His purposes so why not Rick Warren?
Well, Jane Fonda used the same shtick in Hanoi.
Good day.
Well he didn’t when he spoke to the Jewish groups where he spoke; seems to have no criticism of Mormon faith, so I guess we can’t expect him to preach the gospel message here either.
God is in Control-and as Christians we stand firm-even when Christians claiming to do God’s Work speak contrary to God’s Word!!Ephesians 5:11-and have nothing to do with the unfruitful works that darkness produces. Instead, expose them for what they are.
Please visit my blog and join in prayer for Christian being persecuted in India!!It is time to Stand!!

Well, I haven’t heard yet what Rick Warren has to say in that country, so I will not judge him. I’ll leave that to all of you.
