GOP no longer represents Christians

Many Christians are troubled by Republican politicians in power who govern to advance the party, not the common good for all people. We are a robust bloc of Christians who refuse to vote for candidates who claim Christ yet govern in opposition to His teachings. This fall, we’ll be in 30 congressional districts seeking to unseat Republican incumbents whose policies have strayed too far from our values.

Evangelicals needn’t be disheartened and need not sit out this election. Voting your conscience is an act of faith. Followers of Jesus are all values voters, but the Republican agenda no longer reflects the values of the common good. Pastor Doug Pagitt, executive director Vote Common Good Minneapolis
