Values

NON-PARTISANSHIP

We provide spiritual care to those in government regardless of their political affiliations and believe that Christians can in good faith come to diverse perspectives on policy issues.

RESPECTFUL ENGAGEMENT

In an age when it is easy to talk down to one another, we seek to treat each person with honor and respect. While we hold to our faith with deep conviction, we also seek to talk about faith and religion thoughtfully and respectfully.

RELATIONSHIPS

Ministry to State provides the opportunity for Democrats and Republicans to gather together, form friendships, and to develop positive relationships. We prioritize people over policy.

HUMILITY

We seek to humbly serve our political leaders with compassion and understanding, recognizing the unique and complex challenges that they face. We do not pretend to be policy experts or to have all the answers, but we do strive to create space to listen to one another and to prayerfully consider God's call.

We provide pastoral care, events, and resources to public servants learning to follow Christ in Washington D.C., State Capitols, and Internationally.
