In response to Houston's gay mayor's solicitation of church sermons, on Nov. 2, 2014, Houston Texas will host an I Stand Sunday.  The event, held at a church that openly endorsed a politician, wants to be a player in these issues.  The meeting, held at Grace Church, happens to be the congregation charged by Americans United for Separation of Church and State with using church stationary to seek to endorse a Congressional replacement for Tom DeLay.    Pastor Ed Young will speak.  Ed is the CEO of Second Baptist which has franchises across the region and was in court with the IRS over publicly endorsing candidates for office.   Mike Huckabee, Fox News analyst, is known for claiming that the man who wrote the book about the Myth of Separation of Church and State, is the greatest historian of our generation.  Rick Scarborough, who once claimed Tom DeLay was crucified like Jesus, will speak.  Rick drug his Houston suburb church into the political arena and tore up the congregation.  David Welch, head of the local pastor's conference, seeks to get churches directly engaged in right wing politics.  Ronnie Floyd, president of the Southern Baptist Convention is in the house.  Ronnie once used his pulpit in Arkansas to endorse George W. Bush for President.  The head of ADF will be present.  His organization is the nationally known group encouraging churches to defy the tax codes and publicly endorse candidates for office challenging the churches to defy the government and go into the court rooms.  Meanwhile the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship recently gave a public civic award to Wendy Davis. Davis is the Democratic candidate for Governor in Texas.  Entanglement with churches and denominations and politicians tends to be the trend today.
