There is an email circulating claiming that Barack Obama is a Muslim.  In attempt to set the record straight he’s done a series of interviews.  Here’s an excerpt from the conversation he had with Christianity Today.

I am a Christian, and I am a devout Christian. I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ…

I believe that that faith gives me a path to be cleansed of sin and have eternal life. But most importantly, I believe in the example that Jesus set by feeding the hungry and healing the sick and always prioritizing the least of these over the powerful. I didn’t ‘fall out in church’ as they say, but there was a very strong awakening in me of the importance of these issues in my life. I didn’t want to walk alone on this journey. Accepting Jesus Christ in my life has been a powerful guide for my conduct and my values and my ideals.

He also answers questions about abortion and the evangelical vote.  Click here to read the whole interview.
