The President & The Prophet: Obama’s Unusual Encounter with Eric Metaxas

The President & The Prophet: Obama’s Unusual Encounter with Eric Metaxas

If the organizers of the national prayer breakfast ever want a sitting president to attend their event again, they need to expect that any leader in his right mind is going to ask — no, demand — that he be allowed to see a copy of the keynote address that is traditionally given immediately before the president’s.

That’s how devastating was the speech given by a little known historical biographer named Eric Metaxas, whose clever wit and punchy humor barely disguised a series of heat-seeking missiles that were sent, intentionally or not, in the commander-in-chief’s direction.

TONY DIGIROLAMO- ERIC METAXAS CAME TO THE MEETING PREPARED WITH FIVE STONES AND WITH ONE HE SLAYED THE GIANT SITTING JUST FIVE FEET AWAY FROM HIM.

Eric and I and the members of MasterMedia in NYC met every Wednesday for lunch and Bible study. We met at the Kings College in the Empire State Building.

It's an honor to know the man.

In his book Bonhoeffer has parallels of the direction that Obama is taking the country today. Great book and read. He also wrote Amazing Grace which led to the movie of that same title.

Remember Mother Teresa did the same thing to the Clintons years ago.

It is going to take that kind of bold courage to shake up the church and the nations leaders to get back to the true meaning of "one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all".

Eric Metaxas, I salute you my friend ...A Patriot
