February 11 2008 By virtueonline Influential Evangelicals Withdraw from Christian-Muslim Statement

"I signed the statement because I am committed to the business of peace-making and neighbor-love," Litfin stated on Friday in The Record, the student publication of Wheaton College.

February 11 2008 By virtueonline America's New God: When Politics Trumps Faith
