I heard a bit more about C Street than I wanted to know tonight. While I thought the far right religious right is dangerous I don't think I ever knew the half of it until I had viewed their websites and how ingrained they are in not just our government but in other country's and what they are actually doing. But this is something else I never knew about.

Sen. Inhofe, C Street, and the "Jesus Thing"

I have to wonder what the average christian in this country even knows about what their leaders agenda really is and who in our own government is involved in this sort of thing.

Well that wasn't the complete story of this group, besides I think that many don't really want to know this stuff, puts religion in a bad light, but I think it's even more dangerous to ignore it, even for christians that have no clue what the real agenda is of far to many of their leaders.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most recently covered by MSNBC's Rachel Maddow (1, 2), Washington D.C.'s "C Street House" has over the past two weeks become the center of a media firestorm. Along with GOP Senator Tom Coburn, sex-scandal embroiled GOP leaders Senator John Ensign and South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford have been tied to the row house, assessed to be worth 1.84 million dollars, which is registered as a church and provides Washington politicians with substantially lower than market rate rent. Coburn and Ensign have lived at the C Street house, while Sanford has participated in its Bible study group.


According to the Washington Post the house is owned by Youth With a Mission D.C. Youth With a Mission is one of the most extensive Christian fundamentalist para-church organizations on Earth, and YWAM founder leader Loren Cunningham has publicly outlined a vision for Christian world-control.


In a 2008 promotional video, "Reclaiming 7 Mountains of Culture", Loren Cunningham describes a vision he shared along with the late Campus Crusade For Christ founder Bill Bright and late Christian theologian Francis Schaeffer, in which Christian fundamentalists could achieve world domination by taking over key sectors of society such as business, government, media, and education.


Francis Schaeffer is widely credited as one of the most influential theologians of the 20th Century Christian right. Among the myriad ministries of Bill Bright's behemoth Campus Crusade For Christ is the Washington D.C. ministry Christian Embassy that targets Pentagon leaders for evangelizing.


The C Street House is run by a secretive Washington ministry known as The Family, or The Fellowship. Over the past year and a half, The Family has gradually come to public attention, mainly due to journalist and Harpers editor Jeff Sharlet's ground breaking book The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power. The Family runs the yearly National Prayer Breakfast and maintains a network of Capital Hill prayer groups which have enjoyed the participation of both top GOP but also top Democratic Party Congress and Senate members.


The Family runs but does not own the C Street House. According to a June 26th, 2009 Washington Post story, by Manuel Roig-Franzia, "The Political Enclave That Dare Not Speak Its Name: The Sanford and Ensign Scandals Open a Door On Previously Secretive 'C Street' Spiritual Haven", the C Street House is owned by a "little-known organization called Youth With a Mission of Washington DC."


Youth With a Mission is a global Christian evangelical organization founded in 1960 which, declares YWAM, is "currently operating in more than 1000 locations in over 149 countries, with a staff of nearly 16,000."


As Cunningham introduces Reclaim 7 Mountains of Culture, "It was August, 1975... and the Lord had given me, that day a list of things that I had never thought about before. He said, 'This is the way to reach America, and nations, for God.' "


The video continues with a narrator who declares, "In every city of the world, an unseen battle rages for dominion over God's creation and the souls of people. This battle is fought on seven strategic fronts, looming like mountains over the culture, that shape and influence its destiny. Over the years, the church slowly retreated from its place of influence on these mountains, leaving a void now filled with darkness. When we lose our influence, we lose the culture and when we lose the culture we fail to advance the kingdom of God. And now, a generation stands in desperate need. It's time to fight for them and take back these mountains of influence."


Reclaim 7 Mountains of Culture then outlines seven areas of influence for Christian fundamentalists to reclaim:



The Mountain of Government, "where evil is either restrained or endorsed",


The Mountain of Education, "where truths, or lies, about God and his creation are taught.",


The Mountain of Media, "where information is interpreted through the lens of good or evil",


The Mountain of Arts and Entertainment, "where values and virtue are celebrated or distorted",


The Mountain of Religion, "where people worship God in spirit and truth, or settle for a religious ritual",


The Mountain of Family, "where either a blessing or a curse is passed onto successive generations and,


The Mountain of Business, "where people build for the glory of God or the glory of man."


The last is the key mountain, proclaims the video: "those who lead this mountain influence what controls our culture."
Youth With a Mission also runs a global Christian evangelism educational ministry headquartered at the University of the Nations 45 acre campus in Kona, Hawaii.

As one example in which organizations such as YWAM are implementing the Reclaiming the 7 Seven Mountains agenda, the university has developed programs to provide its students with real world skills such as media and film production.

One of the graduates from the Kona university is Loren Cunningham's son, David Loren Cunningham, who founded the Film Institute in 2004 with other University of Nations students, to place students in the film industry in order to transform Hollywood from within. Cunningham directed Path to 911, the controversial television film aired on ABC on September 10 and 11, 2006 and covered at The Huffington Post by journalist Max Blumenthal.

What I think scares me more is that this group has people on both sides of the Isle, and interesting who they are too. And they spent our tax payer dollars to further thier agenda with out our knowledge.

the roles have changed

when the fed reserve took control of the money

the govt became mommy and daddy and the people became he children

before then it was usually the other way around

but check the laws that were passed for the good of ""the people"" they started just after the fed reserve was established

so now ""the people"" are the kids

how often does what the kids think really matter

just a thought

I think she and her church have their own brand of control. Besides I don't know if Palin really gives a hoot about what she was brought up to believe, she just uses it to her advantage.

I agree, but but but... How convenient for the group to have people on both sides, no? Kinda makes them invisible in a way, because they can do more if no one really knows who is who..
