Wallis Admits That Sojourners Has Received Soros Funding

Sarah Pulliam Bailey of Christianity Today has a good run-down on the Olasky-Wallis exchange over whether Sojourners has received funding from liberal billionaire George Soros’ Open Society Institute. Here’s a quick summary:
1. Last month, Marvin Olasky openly invited Jim Wallis to admit that his organization, Sojouners, had received financial support from the Open Society Institute (an organization that has financed groups promoting abortion, atheism, and same-sex marriage). Olasky attributed a more than tripling of Sojourners’ revenues over the last decade to secular leftists learning “to use the religious left to elect Obama and others.”
2. Wallis denied receiving funds from Soros and accused Olasky of lying.
3. Olasky responded, providing more evidence that Sojourners had received funding from Soros.
4. Wallis admitted that Sojourners has received Soros funding, but says that the “three grants received over 10 years from the Open Society Institute…made up the tiniest fraction of Sojourners’ funding during that decade — so small that I hadn’t remembered them.”
