She will be an excellent example for other women in the Body called upon by the Holy Spirit to serve, despite those who think the Spirit cannot and would not call upon a woman in a "leadership role" for Christ. Change has come indeed. God Bless Obama. Praise God! : ) It's fantastic that a woman of God will be LEADING the sermon at the Inaugural National Prayer Service!

"Her hair's too long". "She has a funny smile that may be offensive to someone." "Her estrogen level isn't high enough!" Everybody wants to complain about something but offer no solutions. Instead of crying about who's giving what prayer and when they do it, we need to begin thinking about how to fix the near incomprehensible mess Bush has left in his wake. It's truly amazing how much damage one man can inflict and then have that same man be dismissive of the carnage.
