Capitol Ministries

19 "Evangelical 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 are doing on high school and college campuses. If we are to truly 'Make America Great Again,' initiating these kinds of outposts is essential. Statistics indicate that most of our political leaders in state Capitols 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." Dr. Robert Jeffress Senior Pastor, First Baptist Church Dallas, Texas Bible Teacher on "Pathway To Victory" television and radio programs Oaks in Office: Essential Bible Studies for Political Leaders Oaks in Office is under revision. The upcoming edition will include two new Bible study series. One series will study the basics of the Christian faith, and the other reveals the scriptural perspective of government and economics issues, including capitalism versus communism, biblical tax policies, debt, money, and inflation, and resource development. All in Authority: Reigniting the Bible's Top-Down Missions Strategy The book of Acts records how a small band of men— the apostles—in very short order turned the world upside down during the first century (Acts 17:16, KJV). This team of uneducated, common men were not elite leaders, so how were they able to saturate the world with the gospel— chang ing lives, changing culture, and eventually changing the Roman Empire? Scripture provides the answer: not only did they fulfill the Great Commission one soul at a time through a ministry of geometric evan gelism and discipleship, but they succeeded by concentrating on and impacting a particular element of society, specifically kings and all who are in authority (1 Timothy 2:1–4). All in Authority, Reigniting the Bible's Top-Down Missions Strategy provides the biblical exegesis for this missional strategy that is found in both the Old and New Testaments. The book is a clarion call for the Church to make political public servants a priority mission field in our nation today. Request your complimentary copy at capmin.org.
