URL: http://harpers.org/archive/2003/03/0079525

Description:
This 2003 article describes a Christian religious association called the Family. "The Family's only publicized gathering is the National Prayer Breakfast, which it established in 1953 and which, with congressional sponsorship, it continues to organize every February in Washington, D.C. ... In the process of introducing powerful men to Jesus, the Family has managed to effect a number of behind-the-scenes acts of diplomacy." PDF version only available to subscribers. From Harper's Magazine.
