Catholics and Evangelicals Unite at Worldview Summit

September 03, 2010

Here are a couple excerpts from the the Free Christian Press article:

"The summit began with worship by Dove award-winning singer, Fernando Ortega. Ortega, a New Mexico native, led the 2,000 plus congregation in five songs, all with the sole purpose of glorifying Christ and developing unity among the wide assortment of people gathered.

As I looked around, I saw collared clergy, suit-wearing Protestants, and casual evangelicals, all worshiping the same Lord. When Ortega sang the two final songs, “In Christ Alone” and “Be Thou My Vision,” I sensed God’s presence as hands were raised and eyes fixed upward."

"Before Colson began his message, he recognized the historic nature of this summit, calling attention to all the speakers and musicians participating in the days event. Then he asked for forgiveness for standing during “Amazing Grace,” stating, “In prison, this is our motto.” The congregation erupted in applause!

Colson, the former Richard Nixon aide, author, and founder of Prison Fellowship, gave a stirring message entitled, “The Manhattan Declaration: A Biblical Worldview Document.” In his presentation he covered a wide range of topics: from relativism, moral collapse, and the changing nature of America’s political landscape. It was a challenging and stirring message, causing one to think and imparting a yearning to act."
