Back in January, when Rev. Caldwell announced his support for Sen. Obama, an online magazine called TalkLeft: the Politics of Crime said "new questions about Obama's commitment to fighting homophobia will be raised by the news of this endorsement by Rev. Kirbyjon Caldwell. This is troubling because Rev. Caldwell is, like Donnie McClurkin before him, a believer that homsexuality is a curable disease of the soul." The online publication alluded to a program sponsored by Rev. Caldwell titled "The Way, The Truth and The Life," designed "to provide Christ Centered instruction for those seeking freedom from homosexuality, lesbianism, prostitution, sex addiction and other habitual sins." Another online publication, Pam's House Blend, cited passages from Rev. Caldwell's pitch for the program: "Since the fall of mankind in the Garden of Eden, men and women throughout the ages have attempted to fulfill these deep emotional needs outside a relationship with God. In doing this, sinful patterns of living were developed, preventing the fulfillment of these needs as God intended. If you desire to learn to live life as God designed it, you are invited to join 'The Way, The Truth and The Life' program."
