I believe in the power of restoration and reconciliation. Obama’s father may not have been able to be served in a DC restaurant as a young man, but his skin color is now no longer a barrier to the highest office in the land.

Obama’s Muslim middle name (Hussein) sends shivers down many American’s spines, but it is my prayer that he will lay a foundation of reconciliation between the Arab world and the west. He took the first step giving his first televised interview to Al Arabiya.

This is a powerful interview, and regardless of your politics is worth your time.

If we can see reconciliation between the west and the Arab world, maybe those snowballs can have a fighting chance in hell.
