I Stand Corrected

Kevin Eckstrom

Turns out what you read isn’t always what the writer meant to say …

Re: my earlier “Outrage of the Day” post about “contribution envelopes” hanging on the Christmas tree at Point of Grace Church in Waukee, Iowa, it turns out that those envelopes were for the church, not the campaign.

My thanks to Ted Olsen of Christianity Today for pointing that out, and to Ruth Marcus at The Post for clarifying.


And my apologies to the Huckabee campaign and Point of Grace for any misdirected indignation.

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
