28. Blair has also joined with Rick Warren to "launch a "faith offensive" in the U.S.
Wasn't aware of this until now.
Found it when searching for articles from March 2010 on Blair.

Why is this reminding me of "Aspen roots"?

Warren "is also on the board of the Tony Blair Faith Foundation, the former UK prime minister’s interfaith charity, which aims to “promote understanding” between major religions. “He’s been here at Saddleback,” says Warren of Blair. “I’ve given him relationship connections I have because I know religious leaders around the world.” "
