I don’t really feel like I had any courage when I became a Christian, I just gave in. I wasn’t courageous; I didn’t have any choice. I kept trying to not believe but I just couldn’t avoid [accepting Christ]. If I could have avoided it, I would have.

Sounds like her "free will" was violated.

Tim Keller’s church, Redeemer Presbyterian in New York City

In the last couple years I have worshiped at Redeemer about 8 times.

Always heard a clear presentation of the Gospel message. On one occasion they were baptizing about 8 people. It was truly fascinating to see a tremendous variety of people make a public profession. Former Buddhists, atheists, blacks, whites, Asians.....

Kirsten is also staunchly Pro-Life and a good news source.

She is either the last or the first in a group of Democrats who still remember what Principles are.

She is a good one to have around.

And I am glad she is.

Now she needs to denounce the Democrat party and her conversion is complete. I did not say she has to be a Republican now. That is no proof of a Christian life.

She’s still a liberal. Statements like this...”It’s not like living in the South where everybody is a Christian” show her true colors as a northern elitist.

I’m glad she found Christ but I’ve always found it impossible to understand how you can be a lib AND a Christian.

I wondered where her change in attitude came from...

There is nothing like the grace of Jesus Christ. I will pray for Miss Powers. Jesus is working in her heart!

I have always liked Kirsten, I have always thought that was more to her than she knew herself, Praise God.

I don't want to be critical and I wish this lady the best but it does not sound genuine to me.

I have seen Kirsten Powers on TV. She is a typical air headed liberal. She takes whatever position that is politically correct.

This sounds like an attempt to please her boyfriend and an attempt to improve her likability. She sounds like someone in a very competitive profession who has little credibility and no following trying to attract attention and enhance her stature.

Being a sincere Christian is difficult, especially in today's world. You need to pray to God, forgo earthly pleasures, stand up for principles that are ridiculed and despised in today's world and give to others. But true faith and spirituality are far more rewarding than anything sacrificed.

I hope I am wrong. I hope her conversion is sincere. We shall see.

God bless her and I hope she continues to receive blessings in all she does. Once our Lord has touched your soul there is no turning back. Only He brings the love strength and comfort that gets us through every day of our lives in this fractured world.

Welcome sister in Christ!

She now is in the war for her soul. How can she be a Christian and a Democrat?

Pray for America to Wake Up

“Really, it was like God sort of invaded my life. It was very unwelcome."

As Jesus said, "You didn't choose me, I chose you"

Wonderful post. I shared it with my sisters, one of which is wondering.

She is one of the few liberal pundits that appears not to suffer from the poison punch. I don’t agree with her politics but she isn’t deranged like Colmes and that type. I guess that’s what the deranged are missing.
