TEXAS BAPTIST FORUM:
Claim the nameEvery day, the name of Jesus becomes a “rock of offense” to more and more Americans.
In an effort to offend no one, timid church members–especially politicians–are using a new term to escape the scorn of the “politically correct.” Instead of “I'm a Christian,” it's now, “I'm a person of faith.” This brings no criticism from those who don't like the name of Jesus.

Saying, “I am a person of faith” is just a bit vague.

POSITIVE CHARGE: Interstate Batteries’ Norm Miller_122203
Posted: 12/19/03
POSITIVE CHARGE:
Interstate Batteries' Norm MillerNorm Miller is chairman of the board of Interstate Batteries System of America and is widely known for his appearances at NASCAR racing events with driver Bobby LaBonte and the race car sponsored by Interstate. More than that, however, he is an outspoken Christian. A one-time alcoholic, he testifies to God's power to change people's lives. Miller is a member of the Dallas Theological Seminary board, the Dallas Seminary Foundation and the Overseas Council. He is co-founder of the Great American Race, a premier vintage car event. He and his wife, Anne, have two children, Tracey and Scott, and five grandchildren. They attend Highland Park Presbyterian Church in Dallas.
Q.
What are your responsibilities as chairman of the board of Interstate Batteries?
Primarily what I am doing is looking ahead, seeing where Interstate can grow and where we can do better and kind of being an out-front-looking person. Of course, we have our board meetings every few months where I preside and look at our plans and how we are stacking up.
