The Saddleback Civil Forum with Barack Obama & John McCain
Original Air Date: August 17, 2008 AudioLink_2008_0817
Show Category: Politics
Show Description: Rick Warren hosted Barack Obama and John McCain at Saddleback for what he called the "Civil Forum." It definitely lived up to its name and was quite possibly the greatest moment in presidential election history. All were given equal, tough questions, and the same time to answer. I have to say that both Obama and McCain did wonderfully, but the real star was Warren. Join the conversation as we look at faith, civility, and politics.

For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will ? to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves."
-Ephesians 1:3-6
