Over the past few months, every single person I have talked to who has met with Mr. Trump alone or in a small group gives the same report: He is attentive, listens well, receives what is shared and is respectful.

This conference call was my first opportunity to observe (via phone) his demeanor. He shared confidentially, was focused, answered questions thoroughly and—this is the most important one to me—received correction.

I debated posting this for two reasons:

• I did not want to violate any confidences (I got permission from the campaign to write my thoughts, although they have no idea what I am writing).
• And I do not want to launch any of the "NeverTrumpers" into orbit, but that may be too much to ask for. I say this—tongue in cheek—that some may hit the outer stratosphere by the time they are halfway through the article.

With those two explanations or disclaimers, here goes.

At one point in the conversation, he used a phrase that was by his own words stated "jokingly." I was aware of the phrase as I knew he had used it when speaking to a group in Florida and one time since. The phrase (which does not need to be repeated) was not offensive in any way, but is theologically wrong. When he stated it on the call, one of the Christian leaders immediately corrected him theologically. Mr. Trump received the correction. Teachability is a lost art in much of present day culture, but he demonstrated it perfectly. The issue here is that he was not defensive, but received the correction. (Photo Credit: Wikipedia.org)

Several pastors and Christian leaders spoke up and gave mini-exhortations on humility, and thanked him for the changes that they have observed in him in the past two weeks. I do not know for certain, but I suspect that he has heeded correction from my friend Kellyanne Conway on this matter, who accepted the role as Trump's Campaign Manager on August 17. Without going into the details of Mr. Trump's response, I shall simply state that he again received what was said.

I had no intention of speaking up on the call, but one of the persons referenced my "Trump vs. Hillary" article going viral and that it had had a million "shares." At that point I spoke up explaining that it was in the 900,000's (It should pass a million early Thursday).

Mr. Trump responded with "I have read it Jim, and I thank you for writing it."

As the conversation continued, I spoke up again and explained why he might want to consider slightly altering his phrasing on a particular matter for the sake of accuracy and comprehensiveness. He immediately acknowledged that he would do that. Dr. James Dobson later brought up the same matter. Once again, Mr. Trump demonstrated total openness to our input. Numbers of others offered insight. It was well received each time.

He was not rushed. I fully expected it to be a "hit and run," an "on and off" phone appearance. It was not. He seemed quite relaxed and took the time to hear from us. During the course of the call, almost all the people on the call offered their thoughts. In all, there was a great deal of solid, sound, Biblical input shared. Mr. Trump received every bit of it.

As I stated in my earlier article, I do not make…
