Congressional Scandals…and Godly Leadership

Came back from Michigan to hear the airwaves filled with the scandal of Rep. Tom Foley sending sexually suggestive emails and IMs to his teen-age male pages…and the even sadder scandal of the spin-doctoring by Democrats and Republicans alike as they seek to maximize the political advantage or minimize the political fallout.

As I was reading Psalm 78 this morning I was struck by the closing words:

“And David shepherded them with integrity of heart;
with skillful hands he led them.” (Psalm 78:72 NIV)

Funny (and tragic) — how an issue of “integrity of heart” has been given over to the “skillful hands” of the spin-doctors…
