(Hat tip David Brody). A group called the Matthew 25 Network, which aims to corral Christian voters for Barack Obama,will run its first radio advertisement on Christian stations in Colorado Springs, CO -- where Obama heads tomorrow and where James Dobson's Focus on the Family is headquartered.

Here's the ad
:


Narrator: "You know it's an election year when certain people start grabbing headlines by attacking the faith of Presidential candidates. With all these stones being cast at Senator Obama, it can be hard to know what to believe. But in Luke, Jesus taught us that we must listen to what a man says because "out of the overflow of his heart, his mouth speaks." So here are words from Senator Obama's heart:

Obama: "I think we make a mistake when we fail to acknowledge the power of faith in people's lives" "kneeling beneath that cross on the South Side, I felt that I heard God's spirit beckoning me. I submitted myself to His will, and dedicated myself to discovering His truth."
