Capitol Commission

MANY PASTORS ARE FEELING A TENSION
...Are you?

“If I address anything ‘politically adjacent,’ I might divide the church.”
“Our people are anxious… and I’m not sure how to calm the temperature.”
“We want to help—but we don’t know where to start.”
“We have no meaningful connection to our state leaders.”
“We don’t want to rope Jesus into party platforms.”
“We don’t want to stay silent either.”

A KINGDOM WAY TO ENGAGE GOVERNMENT—WITHOUT PLAYING POLITICAL GAMES

Capitol Commission helps churches bring prayer, presence, and proclamation into the public square—by connecting you to a nonpartisan missionary-pastor already serving inside your state capitol.

A Pastor to Pastor Partnership

Guidance for addressing government biblically without partisan division.

A Trusted Bridge to the Capitol

Help your church meet leaders and pray for them in appropriate, healthy ways.

Prayer Tools

Pray1Tim2 makes daily intercession simple and specific.

On-the-Ground Gospel Presence

A minister in the capitol is discipling leaders week by week.

We’re not asking your church to become political.

We’re inviting your church to become faithful.

How It Works

1

Connect with Your State Minister

A simple first conversation—pastor-to-pastor.

2

Schedule a "King of Kings" Sunday

A service that calms the room, lifts eyes to Christ’s authority (Psalm 2), and gives your people a clear next step.

3 Mobilize Your Church in Prayer and Partnership

Adopt leaders in prayer, use Pray1Tim2 daily, and (as God leads) help support gospel work inside your Capitol.

WHAT PASTORS ARE SAYING

“Few doors have God opened with more clarity and purpose than Capitol Commission. This ministry is not Republican, Democrat, nor Independent. We praise God for that. God did not come to take sides. He came to take over! I heartily commend this ministry!”

"Believing that the gospel is non-partisan and needed by all, Capitol Commission has the vision of sharing the good news with all who are in government, no matter their political affiliation. Great idea! And Biblical!"

I am so grateful for the work of Capitol Commission. They are the foremost organization in the world solely committed to carrying out 1 Timothy 2:1–2 by praying for and reaching government leaders with the gospel of Jesus Christ. To this end, they currently have State Ministers in twenty-seven statehouses, soon to be in Washington D. C., and in several other countries across the globe. They transcend party lines in their evangelistic work and in their faithful expository teaching. They are committed to sharing the gospel with everyone who serves in our nation’s capitols. I would encourage every church’s mission’s team who believes the power of the gospel to change lives and glorify God, to add Capitol Commission as one of their supported missionary organizations. We, at The King's Chapel, fully support this ministry

WHY THIS MATTERS (1 TIMOTHY 2)

Why Pray for Leaders?

God commands prayer “for kings and all who are in high positions” and ties it to the advance of the gospel. This gives pastors a safe, biblical on-ramp for their people.

WHAT IF YOUR STATE DOESN’T HAVE A STATE MINISTER—YET?

Capitol Commission currently has State Ministers serving in 27 state capitols. If your state is one of them, we’d love to help you connect directly with that minister.

If your state does not yet have a State Minister, you still have a meaningful next step. A member of our national ministry—often Dr. Brad Harbaugh—can help facilitate a King of Kings Sunday, equip your church to pray for leaders, and walk with you as we discern God’s timing for placing a State Minister in your capitol. Many churches play a key role in helping launch new state ministries.
