Os Guinness and Richard Mouw (President of Fuller Seminary) will unveil their “Evangelical Manifesto” today at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. According to an AP story, the manifesto condemns people of faith for allowing themselves to be “useful idiots” in the political process and calls for a reformation in the behavior of evangelicals.

According to the National Press Club, “An Evangelical Manifesto” was “…drafted by Dr. Os Guinness, vetted by a nine-person steering committee and supported in charter signature by more than 80 of the nation’s leading Evangelical Christians.”  The AP reports the Manifesto may be noteworthy because of who DID NOT sign it, including evangelical notables like James Dobson and the SBC’s Richard Land.

The press conference will be webcasted live from the National Press Club at 9:30 am ET today. Go to http://www.alrcnewskitchen.com/webcast/.
