Since 1996 Capitol Ministries has planted discipleship ministries inside the halls of
government to state and federal political leaders in the United States and around the world.
Now, through Local Government Ministries, we are increasing our efforts to partner
with the local church and dedicated individuals to build weekly discipleship Bible study
ministries to city and county officials who serve across America.
It's a daring vision. But we already have the Bible studies written specifically to meet the
faith needs, both personal and professional, of public servants. We are seeking men to teach
them—retired businessmen, pastors, former pastors, lay leaders, and the person who senses
his heart is being tugged by God. Is this you? We provide support and training at no cost. Share
the Word of God with America's national leaders of tomorrow in your neighborhood today.
I've wondered about this for quite some time. When I served as U.S. Secretary of Energy in Washington,
D.C., nothing prepared me better for the work that needed to be done for our nation than the hour
I spent every week in the Capitol Ministries White House Cabinet Bible Study. Our political
leaders desperately need God's Word, and yet they are all but forgotten when it comes to
evangelism and discipleship. Let's fix that. I am spearheading this bold effort to reach
political leaders with the Word of God throughout America! Please join me.

Why are our political leaders
one of the most neglected
mission field in America today?
