Capitol Commission Tennessee Serving public servants and the Capitol Community of Tennessee through Bible Study, prayer support, counsel and chaplaincy across party lines.

The Tennessee General Assembly just completed the first half of the 114th Legislative Session last week. It was an intense and busy Session beginning with the special Session called for by Governor Bill Lee. In spite of that, they were able to complete their essential work by the end of April.

I was with them all the way serving as the ministry of Capitol Commission/Tennessee, providing chaplaincy care, Bible studies both in person and written for every member of both Senate and House each week, distributing a copy of the study in leadership from the book of Nehemiah to every office. I also offered an in person study for the staff as well.

Additionally, each week it was my privilege to secure speakers for Wednesday morning Devotions, attended by Members, Staff, and lobbyists. It is always a great challenge and encouragement to have speakers from within the Legislature as well as from around the State. One of the highlights this year was to have Dave Ramsey speak and also Brad Gray, the teacher and founder of Walking the Text, who led as our tour guide on a life-changing study trip last August to Turkey, which was where I met Dave.

Below is a video explanation of this year round ministry. Please prayerfully consider partnering with us financially to continue this vital ministry that spiritually challenges, equips and encourages public servants!

Capitol Commission Tennessee has the privilege to invite speakers for the weekly Devotions held at the Cordell Hill Legislative Building. Each Wednesday morning, all Members of the General Assembly, staff and lobbyists are invited to receive a dose of biblical encouragement through men and women of God who share from life experiences and biblical truth. Dr Daryl Crouch, founder and director of Everyone’s Wilson has been with us in each of the last few years and is a favorite because of his humble, gracious and clear insights that speak to the needs and heart of people in leadership.
Pray with us for this important way that Legislators can be encouraged and challenged to keep God as their first priority, even in matters of government!

The third annual Bike Ride for Tennessee is in the books! The four day ride from Knoxville to Bristol was scenic, challenging, and successful. We met many new people along the way, had new donors to support our ministry to Government Leaders and staff, and deepened relationships with friends and partners.
What a blast to finish by riding into, then around the oval track at the Bristol Motor Speedway! My first time there. What a rush! Many thanks to my cycling partner, Brad Hood! Thanks to the legislators who saw us off and to those who cheered our finish: Tim Hicks, Bud Hulsey and Rebecca Alexander!

Last week we had the privilege to host The Gathering, an annual conference for all State Ministers of Capitol Commission from across the US. It was five days of training, encouragement, fellowship and challenge. And being in Nashville this year, it was southern and musical!
I am always inspired by the stories of spiritual influence and service by my colleagues among public servants in Capitols throughout the country. Leaders are coming to know the Lord, being strengthened with resolve to being faithful to God and family, and deepening their personal faith in the Word of God. This is an unusual ministry by men and women with a unique calling. In most places, we are the sole voluntary chaplains even though there are other Christian workers involved in political activity in government.
Here are some pictures of our Gathering in Nashville.

The adventure begins on Monday with my cycling partner, Brad Hood. This ride is to raise awareness and financial support for the ministry of “bringing Gospel hope and spiritual strength to government leaders.” Has there been a more important time to be invested in the lives of political leaders than right now?
Follow our 75 miles a day journey from Nashville to Knoxville, the second leg of a three year journey across Tennessee! Pray daily for safety, health, and opportunity to tell this story. Support us by donating at www.Capitol Commission.org/tennessee or send a check made out to Capitol Commission - Tennessee, and send to the address on the Ride brochure pic.
