California State Senate candidate Bishop Art Hodges explores the intersection of church and politics. Rooted in Jesus’ prayer, “Thy will be done on Earth as in Heaven,” Hodges argues that political engagement and public service are Christian virtues. He believes pastors have avoided political issues for fear of dividing their congregations—but says that must end, because America’s political landscape has shifted from Right vs. Left to Right vs. Wrong. With people of faith often withdrawing from the ‘unsavoriness’ of politics, only 25% of evangelical Christians vote in California. Hodges lays out his plan to mobilize this demographic and rescue the Golden State from darkness and bankruptcy under decades of one-party rule.
