Do you remember the Christian prayer rally that filled Houston’s Reliant Stadium? “The Response” made cross-denominational waves, uniting people in prayer in a massive way. So why would its organizer, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, need to be baptized? The Associated Press reports that Perry was baptized last month in Little Rocky Creek near the small town of Independence. It was the same little creek where Texas icon Sam Houston was baptized. But again, why? “Gov. Perry has a deep and abiding faith in God,” Perry spokesman Felix Browne says. “Like many people of faith, the governor wished to reaffirm his commitment in a way that holds great personal meaning.” Perry is stepping down as governor of Texas after a record 14-year run. The Republican Party is still waiting and watching to see if he decides to take another shot at the presidency.
