John Hagee, John McCain and Christian jewelry

Texas Pastor John Hagee has been in the news recently thanks to his on-again, off-again endorsement of Republican presidential candidate John McCain. The most recent controversy: Hagee's assertion, not all that unusual in certain conservative Christian circles, that God sent Hitler as a "hunter" to force the Jews to go back to Israel.
While the news understandably focuses on Hagee's sermons and books, it's less well known that he also sells Christian jewelry. Pictured here: the Hagee prayer-box necklace, riffing on Jewish phylacteries. It's part of his wife Diana Hagee's King's Daughter Collection, which also includes a branded apron, tote bag and myrrh anointing oil.
An interesting bit of info about Diana Hagee: "She was presented the prestigious Lion of Judah award by the Jewish Federation of Greater Houston for the long-standing work she and Pastor Hagee do within Israel."
