Four reasons Christians are terrified of Kamala Harris

“I want you to pray for me.”

That’s the request Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly made of her pastor, the Rev. Amos C. Brown, this month as she prepared to toss her hat into the 2024 presidential ring. 

Mr. Brown told Sojourners Ms. Harris phoned him to seek prayer for her husband, Doug Emhoff, for America and for her presidential aspirations.

But while Ms. Harris is receiving a great deal of attention over her Baptist faith — including her request for invocation — others are lamenting what they see as past “religious bigotry,” including legislative behavior that has some Christians on edge.
