I believe that they can be from the heart. When they are used corporately they can sometimes lead in worship better than casual prayers. We just aren't used to them much in evangelical churches. I know it isn't exactly the same, but we do have written songs, written sermons, written Scripture we read. Next time I use one at Calvary though, I'll announce it! I like written prayers.

This bugs me too, but in addition to what you said it seems strange that some of the hot points of this election are in this prayer. I wonder if when he was asked to pray they also asked him to make sure he mentions certain points that show some people that maybe watching on TV what they are about. I know I'm being a critical but stuff like that gets under my skin. I agree that a shorter more general prayer could have done the same thing and not stressed the points of the campaign. Is prayer really the place to make this advertisement? Yeah, I’m with you.
