Faith In Public Life Proudly Cosponsors Forum on Compassion with McCain and Obama at Saddleback

Monday, July 21, 2008

As reported in Monday's New York Times, Faith In Public Life is cosponsoring Senators Obama and McCain's first joint event of the campaign, the Saddleback Civil Forum on Leadership and Compassion, on August 16th at Saddleback Church, home of Rick Warren, author of the bestselling The Purpose Driven Life.

Much like The Compassion Forum at Messiah College, which brought together the Compassion Forum Board of faith leaders from across the ideological spectrum and Senators Clinton and Obama in April for an unprecedented in-depth conversation, the Saddleback forum will focus on pressing moral issues on which people of faith are taking action -- such as HIV/AIDS, poverty, climate change, and human rights.
