Dennis Baxley of Florida hosted a recent prayer breakfast for state legislators in Tallahassee. It was my honor to attend and speak about the importance of Christians serving in elected office and the power of prayer to make a difference in our nation. Special thanks to Christian Care Ministry for sponsoring the event and making prayer for public officials a priority.” – Former State Senator Jason Rapert, founder and president of NACL.
