We are pretty excited to announce a new project we are starting, “Project 21C: Bringing the Church Into the 21st Century”, where we aim to help churches and ministries use modern communication tools (see: digital) to spread the Gospel and minister to all.
Let us be clear: this is not about watering down the Bible or evolving theology to fit the times, but a project about using modern tools to spread the never-changing Truth.
We are, of course, still doing politics, but we want to take the lessons we’ve learned in national politics while working on campaigns for president, governor, congress, and more, to help the Church reach people where they live and breathe more and more of their days – online! We already have a few awesome projects moving on this front and can’t wait to share more.
“I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.” – 1 Corinthians 9:22-23

“Initially, I was drawn to politics because of deeply held beliefs I had on certain issues. While those beliefs have remained steadfast, along the way I have become drawn to the challenge of a political campaign and the process of actually getting somebody elected to office. Running a political campaign is the ultimate chess match, the ultimate start-up, etc. It stretches you in every way imaginable. When you combine the challenges of a campaign with deeply held beliefs on important issues, it becomes easy to see why I really enjoy what I do.”

“‘There’s two problems: There’s the practical day-to-day issues, like scheduling, fundraising, meetings, etc,’ [Jordan] Powell said. ‘If you get passed that, you still have a problem, to me, with voters about political opportunism.'”
