WASHINGTON – In case you missed it, The Philadelphia Inquirer published a profile on U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.) following Senator Coons’ remarks at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church last week. Read the full profile here: http://www2.philly.com/news/chris-coons-prayer-breakfast-saving-civility-20181209.html
Excerpt from the profile:
“Coons — who has a divinity degree from Yale, previously served as an elder in his Presbyterian church, and still preaches on occasional Sundays — turns to religion. ‘Faith, and looking at the two of us from a Kingdom perspective, is what gives me the opportunity to forgive,’ said Coons, a 55-year-old from Wilmington with a cheery demeanor and dry wit. His recent speech and interviews show a glimpse of how one senator is trying in small ways to soothe the acrimony that has become the defining feature of American politics, overshadowing every major public debate.”
