Voting is one expression of living our faith. Before Christians decide how to vote, wouldn’t it be great to better understand what Christian values say about issues we face today?
THE FAITHFUL VOTER PROJECT is here to help. Far more than a voter guide, THE FAITHFUL VOTER PROJECT explores 12 sometimes confusing issues through a Christian values lens.
Elections are an on-going opportunity for each of us to choose how our local, county, state, and federal governments are going to impact our daily lives. So when you vote (and we hope you do!) we hope THE FAITHFUL VOTER PROJECT will help you be better prepared to protect and enrich the freedoms, faiths, and futures of all families—with your vote.

TO OUR FRIENDS AROUND THE WORLD:
Jesus didn’t stop at the border and neither do so many of the issues we face today. We are sure you will find insightful content that you, too, can share and put into action for a better world.
A WORD ABOUT LOVE:
There’s a reason why you’ll find THE FAITHFUL VOTER PROJECT rooted in Jesus’ teaching to “love your neighbor.” We are called to treat every person with dignity, mercy, and care. Christian love believes the world becomes more just and humane when we actively work for the well-being of others. This ideal seems to be in short supply these days. Let’s help change that.
LET US BE WHO WE SAY WE ARE:
Jesus gave sight to the blind. [John 9:1-7] Each of us can open our eyes. We need not agree on everything, but we can agree that by being better informed we can make choices that align with our values, including at the ballot box.
