Just days until the September 2nd Primary Election!

Why Christians Should Vote

Our faith in God should influence our values in life, including the political arena. We shouldn't be bashful about injecting notions of right and wrong into public debates. These ideas come from moral standards, which help prevent a free society such as ours from sliding into social chaos. People of faith, grounded in moral truth, must be prepared to discern those candidates best able to uphold moral values.

As Christ's representatives on earth, we have a mandate to be "salt and light" in our culture (Matthew 5:13-16). Dr . James Dobson has said, "we live in a representative form of government where we are its leaders. It means that every citizen has a responsibility to participate in the decisions that are made, and that includes people of faith using their influence for what is moral and just."

"If America is to survive, we must elect more God-centered men and women to public office - individuals who will seek divine guidance into he affairs of the state."

Billy Graham


The Ministry of Voting

That's right. Your vote can be a form of ministry. After all, when you vote, you are directly and indirectly impacting people's lives. By the people you select and the ballot measures you support, you are making a practical difference - for good and bad - in the lives of:

- Preborn children (abortion policy)

Impressionable youth (pornography laws & education policy)

Husbands and wives (marriage & divorce laws)

Hurting souls (religious freedom laws)

This election year, prayerfully resolve to:

1) Be registered

2) Be informed

3) Vote your values!
