Topic: George Washington and his Names for God. Dr. Peter Lillback is the president of Westminster Theological Seminary (Philadelphia) and the founder/president of Providence Forum, the organization that published the book by Peter Lillback and Jerry Newcombe, “George Washington’s Sacred Fire,” which Glenn Beck helped turn into a national bestseller. Some people object to George Washington’s use of names for God that we’re not familiar with today—e.g. the Great Architect of the Universe, Providence, etc. Some critics go so far as to say that Washington was therefore a Deist. On this segment of Vocal Point, Peter Lillback and Jerry Newcombe discuss our first president and the name of God. www.providenceforum.org
