Welcome

Welcome to Capitol Commission Oklahoma!

Elected members of the Oklahoma legislature face unique challenges and extraordinary pressures. Regardless of political party, the most needed and meaningful help available is the power of God through prayer and the eternal truth of Scripture.

Three Pillars of Work
1. Pastoral presence within the state capitol for elected leaders and their staff.
2. Proclaiming the Word in weekly Bible studies or devotions.
3. Prayer for all those in authority as the Bible teaches in 1 Tim. 2:1-4.

God cares for all people and when our leaders are better, we are all better. As Christ’s ambassadors sharing truth and grace in the State Capitol, the power of God is at work among the leaders serving communities across the state of Oklahoma. (2 Cor. 5:11-21)

3. FOLLOW | Click Here and sign up to receive The Oklahoma Capitol Report providing regular updates, news, and opportunities to reach the Oklahoma Capitol for Christ. Follow Joel at joelharder.org and on Twitter @JoelWHarder
