Gospel Reach | CM 2019 39
" E
vangelical pastors as a whole have largely overlooked the
importance of building effective ministries that disciple
local government leaders for Christ. With over 40,000 local
governments in America, we need to birth ministries similar to
what Youth for Christ and CRU and Baptist Collegiate Ministry
are doing on high school and college campuses. If we are to
truly 'Make America Great Again,' as defined by Scripture,
initiating these kinds of outposts is essential. Statistics
indicate that most of our political leaders in state capitals
and Washington, D.C. were once city council members. In
Oaks in Office, Ralph Drollinger provides an invaluable tool
to equip pastors and laymen with pertinent Bible studies
to initiate discipleship ministries with those serving in local
government. I highly recommend this excellent resource."
