" B
efore being elected to the United States
Congress, I served in the new mexico state
capitol. I only wish there had been a stronger
ministry there when i served. Today, as our
nation faces mounting moral crises each
day, i strongly believe in the importance of
the ministry of capitol ministries which
offers evangelism, discipleship, and in-
depth bible studies for our leaders and
decisionmakers. Capitol ministries' bible
studies take current issues and examine
them thoroughly from a biblical world
view. This is essential for legislators. The
bible is our society's moral underpinning
and played a vital role in all our systems
from economics, to government, business,
and the courts. It is critical for legislators
to approach legislation and policy with
some type of consistent biblical yardstick."
