I promise this is my last post on Donald Miller, who gave the benediction last night at the Democratic National Convention.
He accepted the invitation last week after Relevant founder Cameron Strang backed out, he spoke with me yesterday and then prayed after Michelle Obama’s keynote last night.
I overheard a conversation today that pointed out that although Miller used the name of Jesus, he seemed to emphasize the word “I.” He said, “I make these requests in the name of your son, Jesus, who gave his own life against the forces of injustice.” Why do you think he worded it that way?
Here’s the video I took of our interview yesterday in a restaurant. I cut down the full interview for those with short attention spans, but he said something later I found noteworthy when I asked him about negative reaction he has received. He said, “It’s interesting that you could do something scandalous like deny the trinity and get less flack than support a Democrat for president.”
The video focuses on the issues he believes should be important to the Democratic Party.
