Stringsinger says: they are actively pursuing their agendas....

Yeah, I suppose that's true. I'm affiliated with one faith-based program whose agenda is to provide "hospitality with dignity and love" to women in an impoverished area. Another one I work with has a different agenda: to encourage the county jail to treat prisoners with compassion and fairness. I'm involved in other faith-based organizations that protest capital punishment and promote the cause of peace.

I don't apologize for any of these agendas. They put to action what I believe. And please note that none of these faith-based programs makes any attempt to preach religion.
