The Democrats anointed their messiah last night at the Democrat National Convention in Denver.
Having heard from Michelle Obama on Monday, Sen. Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, former President Bill Clinton and vice presidential running mate Joe Biden on Wednesday, the “transcendent” and “transformational” candidate, Sen. Barack Obama, spoke to a packed stadium of 85,000 people last night about how he will “change” America.
He’s correct, he will change America — just not in ways that Christians should want.
Meanwhile, the Republican National Convention starts Monday here in St. Paul, Minnesota where Sen. John McCain will make the case that he would be the best choice for president.
This weekend on The Christian Worldview, we’ll focus on politics — why conservatism is most Christian, the faith of the candidates, and whether McCain’s vice presidential choice is a good one.

Say what you will about super-pastor Rick Warren, but he certainly provided us an excellent and important look last Saturday into the minds and hearts of the two major candidates for president, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama.
What the mainstream media consistently fails to do in their debates in both format and questioning, Rick Warren did in the simplest of ways — just sit down one on one with each candidate for an hour and ask questions that regular Americans want to ask. Some are considering this a turning point in the 2008 election.
If you didn’t see the forum, you can watch it here or read the transcripts here.
This weekend on The Christian Worldview, you won’t want to miss sound bite highlights from the forum and analysis of the candidates responses.
