Monday’s Religion News Roundup: POTUS’ prayers, Shmuley’s loss, prayer in 3 words

CNN's John blake has a worth-reading account of the painful split (and reunion) between legendary Atlanta preacher Charles Stanley and his preacher son/one-time rival, Andy.

After Episcopal Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori warned South Carolina Episcopalians not to pull another Fort Sumter, they did just that, voting to leave the national church.


POTUS asked Buddhist monks in Thailand to pray that he and Republicans can find a deal to prevent the U.S. from going over the fiscal cliff, Thelma-and-Louis style (that's the photo).

Christian author Anne Lamott explains the thinking behind her down-to-basics prayer: Help. Thanks. Wow.
