Who’s Obama Missing?

A recent article written by Daniel Burke, of RNS, profiles the seven members of President Obama’s “Spiritual Cabinet.”   President Obama reportedly uses this informal team to bounce ideas off of and regularly calls on them to personally pray for him. They are…

– Joshua DuBois, a Pentecostal Pastor, head of Obama’s Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, who sends daily devotionals to Obama’s Blackberry.

– Denis McDonough, a Catholic who serves as Deputy National Security Adviser and Chief of Staff of the National Security Council. Burke says he’s “a crucial player in Obama’s quest to engage Muslims, find common cause with the Vatican, and restore the country’s moral authority.”

–Rashad Hussain, a White House lawyer and a hafiz (someone who has memorized the Quran), who Obama has named as his envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference.

– Melissa Rogers, Chairman of the Director of the Center for Religious and Public Affairs at the Wake Forest University School of Divinity, she chaired the Faith-Based office’s advisory board, which this week released 60 recommendations for revamping the office.

–Rev. Joel Hunter, an Orlando, Fl., megachurch pastor, who Burke says, is “pushing to broaden the evangelical agenda to include issues like poverty, immigration and the environment.”

–The Rev. Sharon Watkins, President and General Minister of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), who gave the homily at the post-inauguration National Prayer Service last year.

–Navy Lt. Carey Cash (whose great uncle was Johnny Cash) an Iraq War Veteran and Southern Baptist Pastor who has led the worship at Cap. David’s Evergreen Chapel.

My question for you is this:  If you could add one member to Obama’s  “Spiritual Cabinet” whose spiritual influence would you want him to seek and why?
