In this episode of our summer series recapping the 2024 Christians Engaged Conference, we're excited to share two powerful messages from two inspiring leaders—Craig DeRoche, President of Family Policy Alliance, and Jonathan Saenz, President of Texas Values—as they share urgent and encouraging messages for our nation.Craig DeRoche emphasizes the vital role Christians must take in praying, voting, and engaging in the public square to uphold biblical values in our culture and government. He reminds us that the Church is the key to addressing America's challenges, calling believers to step forward with boldness and unity. Listen as he shares his Forrest Gump–style journey through American politics and the powerful realization that Christians Engaged is building the most effective movement of its kind in the nation today.Jonathan Saenz brings a passionate Texas perspective, emphasizing the foundational principles of faith, family, and freedom that define our state and nation. From his early advocacy at the Texas Capitol to his ongoing work defending pro-life and religious liberty laws, Jonathan challenges Christians to “show up” and be equipped to engage effectively in the political process. Drawing from Scripture and personal experience, he encourages believers not to fear opposition but to stand firm with courage and truth.Join us as we explore how Christians can move beyond the sidelines and become influential voices in this pivotal moment for our country.➡️ Subscribe to our channel for more inspiring conversationsWe exist to awaken, educate, and empower believers in Jesus Christ to:▪️ PRAY for our nation and elected officials regularly▪️ VOTE in every local, state, and national election to impact our culture ▪️ ENGAGE our hearts in civic education or involvement for the well-being of our local communities and our nation

In the first episode of our summer series recapping the 2024 Christians Engaged Conference, we kick things off with a moving message from Arkansas State Representative Alyssa Brown—the youngest person ever elected to the Arkansas Legislature. Just two years ago, she joined our Young Adult 1630 Initiative and took a life-changing trip to Washington, D.C. What followed was a miracle: a journey from intercessory prayer to stepping into the race herself—filing with just 22 minutes to spare—and ultimately, winning with over 63% of the vote.Alyssa shares how God called her to confront fear, challenge the status quo, and embrace a bold, biblical leadership. Alongside her story, you'll also hear from Abby Sexton, our Young Adult Director, and inspiring testimonies from Ryan, Josh, Kaedon, and Lea—young leaders rising in this generation.Learn more about 1630 and connect: https://www.ce1630.orgThis is more than a political story—it's a faith story. One that proves God still raises up Esthers, Daniels, and Davids to face the giants of our day.
This episode is part of our Conversations series, Messengers: Live from the NRB Conference, which features insightful interviews with influential Christian leaders who inspire biblical action across generations. In this episode of Conversations with Christians Engaged, Ben Quine sits down with Pastor Lucas Miles—Senior Director of TPUSA Faith and author of Woke Jesus—to confront the cultural movement trying to "reimagine Jesus." From rising biblical illiteracy to the spread of woke theology, Lucas challenges believers to wake up, return to Scripture, and stand firm in truth.Discover how grace and truth work together—and how the Gospel empowers us to say no to ungodliness while living boldly for Christ in our generation.Watch now to be equipped, encouraged, and emboldened to stand for truth in an age of compromise.
Our teams at Christians Engaged and Family Policy Alliance Foundation invite you to join us in celebrating the National Day of Prayer! The National Day of Prayer is an annual observance held on the first Thursday of May, inviting people to pray for the nation. It was created in 1952 by a joint resolution of Congress and signed into law by President Harry Truman. The theme for 2025 is Pour Out to the God of Hope and Be Filled. It's based on Romans 15:13: "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Bunni Pounds, President of Christians Engaged, leads a powerful time of prayer to mark the occasion, joined by FPA Senior Vice President Amanda Banks and Christians Engaged Vice President Ben Quine. Join us for this special time of prayer. Discover more about the National Day of Prayer at https://www.nationaldayofprayer.org.

Family Matters with Jim Minnery - The Faith & Politics Show !
Bunni Pounds is a bundle of energy. After running a very successful political consulting firm, she founded Christians Engaged to awaken, educate and empower Christians to pray, vote and engage regularly in efforts to improve the nation's well being.Most Christians would agree that our government would be in better shape if more Christians were involved. However, polling tells us that in many places up to a third of the Christian community sits out key elections. Many of the people who share our values simply don't vote.Alaska Family Council has worked hard over the years to increase voter turnout in the pews. But we've lacked a dedicated staff person and solid technology to truly have as great of an impact as we'd like.Until now.Family Policy Alliance, our national partner we've worked side by side with since our founding in 2006, and Christians Engaged (CE), the nation's leading Christian-based, voter turnout operation, have united to form a powerful alliance dedicated to advancing biblical values in our nation's political landscape for generations to come.Bunni and I will chat about it on today's show. For more info about this strategic merger, watch this video.In short, Christians Engaged has developed the technology and tools we need as a movement to inspire and activate Christ-followers to get to the polls. However, CE lacked the national presence to effectively bring the program before the larger Christian community. Family Policy Alliance, and its network of state-based organizations like Alaska Family Council, has the footprint across the nation but lacked the right technological tools.Together, with FPA and CE now fully merged, Alaska Family Council is prepared to immediately implement this program. The goal is to educate and equip one million Christians across the nation—many of them from right here in Alaska—ahead of the November 2024 Elections.Stand by for more details and take a few minutes to tune in today.Support the Show.

Guest: Matt Shaheen, Texas State Representative, District 66 State Representative Matt Shaheen led the efforts in the last legislative session to pass laws requiring age verification for access to “adult” [porn] websites (for more information, see House Bill 1181). The law requires that users verify that they are over 18 years old. A couple of months ago, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a challenge to the Texas age verification requirement. Responding to that decision, several porn sites have blocked all uses from Texas. Several other states are passing similar legislation in efforts to protect children from sexually explicit material. Common Sense Media released valuable research called “Teens and Pornography” which found that 73% of teens aged 13 to 17 who participated in the survey have watched pornography online and more than half (54%) reported that their first exposure to pornography occurred around the age of 13. The report also revealed that a majority of teens who indicated that they've viewed online pornography have been exposed to what has been labeled aggressive and/or violent forms of pornography. And remember that this year is a Presidential Election and the General Election is coming up this November. Christians Engaged is a wonderful organization to help you get informed and engaged as a Christian citizen in our great country.

It is no secret anymore that this is a war for our children! Many times though, that passion can be met with immediate feelings of overwhelm and powerlessness in how to impact change. If that's you, then you don't want to miss today's episode. In fact, you need to share it with EVERY mama bear you know who is passionate about doing her part. Bunni Pounds was a Christian house-wife and missionary who ended up somewhat accidentally in a civil service role because she was determined to see some change happen, and the Lord has elevated her faithfulness to being an influential figure in political circles, and running a company that serves Christians in staying educated and involved (thus impactful!) in their local, state and national governments! She is fun, down to earth and determined to make it clearer and more doable for believers to know exactly what their place is and how to take it up fully in this time. Listen folks, wickedness prevails when good men do nothing. Do not let "nothing" be how you showed up in this space. The primaries are coming up very soon in March for many states, as soon as next week, and we want this episode to get around and help people, so please share, and enjoy the show, and then TAKE ACTION. PRAYER is the first and most crucial starting point, Voting is essential, and then getting involved however you can! Check out her resources below that will help you in staying up to speed on candidates for when you vote. ABOUT BUNNI: Bunni Pounds is the President of Christians Engaged. This statewide non-partisan ministry awakens, motivates, educates, and empowers believers in Jesus Christ: to pray for their nation and elected officials regularly, to vote in every election to impact their culture, and to engage their hearts in some form of civic education or engagement for the wellbeing of America. Married for 27 years to Tim Pounds, they have 2 young adult sons, Israel and Ben, and two daughters-in-law as well as a new grandbaby, Grayson Lee Pounds.
