I don't see any listing of this being carried live.

I know this is the WP, but it seems to give a fairly realistic spectrum of what to expect today.

But more than policy positions, he wants to get a glimpse of Trump’s soul.

These guys take too much on themselves. Perhaps each one will imagine he's seen Trump's soul, and that it looks like ... whatever he wants to see. Each one will believe he's been promised (and will receive) whatever matters most to him.

Means nowt, as the Brits say.

Trump can be as fake as the politicians they support; that’s the only way to win them.

If these jokers were interested in supporting Trump, the information they’re seeking is out there. They’re ticked off because Trump’s not sucking up to them.

Some of these people want to be reluctant? Will they choose Hillary? To reject Trump who is not anti-evangelical to Hillary who definitely is? Why is the meeting necessary?

As I was picking a cup of fresh red raspberries for breakfast (God does provide) it occurred to me that among our comments today we could offer up prayers for DJT , his family, his mission and all here on the Trump Train.
So many praises and prayers of thanksgiving. So many in need. So much evil in the world and yet so much good in people’s hearts. So many “confused” people. And too many others who think they know.
Turning our country over to God’s will and then accepting His will and Grace is a challenge even for the most devote

Lord, Only YOU know our true needs, we turn our country and lives over to your will
Knowing it is through you

Instead of looking at Trump’s soul why not take a peek at Hillary’s?

Isn’t that sweet? The Compost is concerned that Trump can’t win some votes.

Last summer the meeting was closed but one of the pastors sent a video of the laying on of hands and closing prayers to his elders so they could join in (It went viral). There were 40-50 pastors at a 20 invite meeting in Trump Towers.
About 500 were invited to this meeting Close to 900 have RSVP that they are planning on attending. .
....When two or more gather in HIS name!
My understanding that other than Christians will be attending this meeting too. (The Trump family is very close to the NY Jewish community , not just through Ivanka, but for decades. Trumps fellow students at NYMA were often Jewish) When he opened MarLargo in Florida it was the first club that allowed both Jewish and people of color to join— “it was the right thing to do!” Explains a lot about his heart!

“...Turning our country over to God’s will...”

Amen and - enough of us remaining righteous in order to petition God as Abraham did: Genesis 18: 23 - 33

The fact that the meeting is even occurring is a sign that God is blessing the meeting because many things could have happened to prevent it.

Great post! Thanks for reminding us to pray and accept God’s will.

As my mother used to say if we can accept HIS will and love our neighbors (who were rather a peculiar lot). We could go on to the next steps.
I think about it often My neighbors are much easier to love,but accepting HIS will has always been a challenge. (Too strong headed )

Am still running a fever this AM but did have enough energy to pick a few fresh red raspberries. Life is good and Gods provisions are wonderful with a bit of cream. Prayers are always appreciated

fine, I understand wanting to hear from him directly, but can any of these people seriously contemplate supporting Shrillary instead of Trump???

On a long list of relevant issues and values, real evangelicals should loathe Hillary with every fiber of their being.

The media is not telling you that these meeting have been going on even before he announced. They started as prayer meetings. And have grown from a dozen or two into hundreds. Yes they discuss his stand on the topics the evangelical are interested in but some of the time from what has been leaked out is spent in prayer. Do you really think the MSM is going to report that? If they did it would be presented as some JESUS FREAKS. That is why it is not open to the media
