Mission

TO AWAKEN, MOTIVATE, EDUCATE, AND EMPOWER ORDINARY BELIEVERS IN JESUS CHRIST TO: PRAY FOR OUR NATION AND ELECTED OFFICIALS REGULARLY, TO VOTE IN EVERY ELECTION TO IMPACT OUR CULTURE, AND TO ENGAGE OUR HEARTS IN SOME FORM OF CIVIC EDUCATION AND INVOLVEMENT FOR THE WELLBEING OF OUR NATION.

  • IN 2022, CHRISTIANS ENGAGED, A CIVIC ENGAGEMENT DISCIPLESHIP MINISTRY SERVED ANOTHER 47 CHURCHES THROUGH IN-PERSON PROGRAMS WITHOUT ANY COST TO THE LOCAL CHURCH - BRINGING THE GRAND TOTAL TO 122 CHURCH SERVICES IN 3 YEARS. THE MINISTRY DID 5 "ON-RAMP TO CIVIC ENGAGEMENT" FULL DAY SEMINARS, 12 AWAKENING NIGHTS, AND 30 OTHER SERVICES DISCIPLING ON PRAYER, VOTING, AND ENGAGEMENT THIS YEAR. WE ALSO HELD OUR SECOND NATIONAL WAKE UP CONFERENCE WITH 550 REGISTRATIONS FEATURING NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED SPEAKERS AND DID A FULL WEEKEND CONFERENCE IN PENNSYLVANIA WITH OVER 100 REGISTRATIONS. IN 2022, CHRISTIANS ENGAGED BUILT THE ONLY 501(C)3 "GET OUT THE VOTE" MECHANISM FOR CHRISTIANS IN ALL 50 STATES. THE TAKE THE PLEDGE SYSTEM NOT ONLY PUSHES CHRISTIANS TO REGISTER TO VOTE BUT ENCOURAGES THEM TO VOTE IN EVERY ELECTION FROM A BIBLICAL PERSPECTIVE, INCLUDING CURRENT AND FUTURE LOCAL, PRIMARY AND GENERAL ELECTIONS. CHRISTIAN CHURCHES AND MINISTRIES ACROSS AMERICA CAN NOW PARTNER WITH CHRISTIANS ENGAGED TO UTILIZE THEIR SYSTEM BY CO-BRANDING WITH THEM ON THEIR WEBSITES, EMAILS, PRINTED MATERIALS, AND SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS TO ACTIVATE THE BODY OF CHRIST ALL OVER THE NATION. LEADING UP TO EACH ELECTION, THOSE ENROLLED WILL RECEIVE FOUR TEXTS AND FOUR EMAIL REMINDERS TO VOTE AND ARE EQUIPPED WITH RESEARCH MATERIALS AGAIN FROM A NON-PARTISAN CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE. THIS SYSTEM IS UNIQUE IN THAT IT IS BUILT WITHIN A FULLY SECURE CHURCH SOFTWARE SYSTEM THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE FUTURE GROWTH TO MILLIONS OF PEOPLE. 76,000 CHRISTIANS RECEIVED OUR WEEKLY COMMUNICATIONS ON PRAYER, VOTING, AND ENGAGEMENT AND VOTING REMINDERS LEADING UP THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS. THE MINISTRY NOW HAS PEOPLE IN ALL 50 STATES WHO HAVE TAKEN THE PLEDGE TO PRAY, VOTE AND ENGAGE. 91.7% OF THE CHRISTIANS WHO MADE THIS COMMITMENT IN TEXAS (THAT WE COULD MATCH TO VOTER DATA) VOTED IN THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS. ON THE RESOURCE SIDE - CHRISTIANS ENGAGED PUBLISHED A NEW BOOK - ENGAGE AND GAVE AWAY ANOTHER 4000 BOOKS TO CHRISTIANS WHO TOOK OUR PLEDGE TO PRAY, VOTE, AND ENGAGE IN CHURCHES OR THROUGH VOLUNTEERS. ONLINE ACTIVITIES INCLUDED RELEASING OUR NEWEST FULL ON-DEMAND VIDEO CURRICULUM: SALT & LIGHT: HOW TO IMPACT OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES, EIGHT HOURS ON UNDERSTANDING COUNTY, CITY, SCHOOL BOARDS, AND LOCAL COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT. WE ALSO WORKED ON DEVELOPING NEW CURRICULUM PACKAGES TO RELEASE IN 2023 - NEHEMIAH: HOW TO REBUILD THE WALLS OF A NATION, BIBLICAL JUSTICE, BIBLICAL ECONOMICS, AND BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW. IN ADDITION, THE ORGANIZATION RELEASED ANOTHER 142 ONLINE ARTICLES (MAKING THE NUMBER FOR 3 YEARS - 326), PRODUCED 52 PODCAST EPISODES, A WEEKLY SHOW ON AUDIO AND VIDEO, WITH EDUCATIONAL CONVERSATIONS WITH ELECTED OFFICIALS, MINISTRY LEADERS, AND SUBJECT LEADER EXPERTS, AND CONDUCTED 50 WEEKLY BIBLE STUDIES CONNECTING THE BIBLE AND PRAYER WITH THE CHALLENGES WE FACE EACH WEEK. BY THE END OF 2022, IN JUST THREE SHORT YEARS, CHRISTIANS ENGAGED HAD DONE 448 SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS, MEDIA APPEARANCES, OR ONLINE EVENTS BY OUR TEAM. BY THE END OF 2022, OVER 1,500 PEOPLE HAD GONE THROUGH ONE OF OUR FULL CURRICULUM COURSES ONLINE OR IN PERSON AT A CHURCH AND WE HAD 635,000 WEBSITE AND CONTENT INTERACTIONS - EITHER STREAMING OUR VIDEOS, DOWNLOADING OUR PODCASTS OR RESOURCES OVER THE COURSE OF THE FIRST 3 YEARS. IN 3 SHORT YEARS - THE FOUNDATION OF THIS MINISTRY HAS BEEN SET FOR MAJOR NATIONAL EXPANSION TO IMPACT OUR NATION. WE BELIEVE THE CHURCH IS THE ANSWER FOR AMERICA.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
