Local government is where most state and national leaders begin their careers.
That is why Capitol Ministries is committed to creating discipleship ministries to local leaders in the 40,000 incorporated neighborhoods across the United States as well as in communities throughout the world.
An overlooked mission field
Political leaders desperately need to be grounded in God’s Word and yet they are one of the most neglected mission fields when it comes to evangelism and discipleship. For more than 25-years Capitol Ministries has planted discipleship Bible study ministries for state and federal leaders. We are now dedicated to building ministries for America’s city and county leaders through our Local Government Ministries (LGM) initiative.
CapMin is seeking men who are proven, intentional, deliberate, biblically reliant disciple makers to lead these ministries. Are you a pastor, former pastor, Sunday School teacher, layman, or retired businessman who senses a call from God to evangelize, disciple, and teach His Word to public servants? If so, we invite you to learn about us.
The curriculum
The essential curriculum for Local Government Ministries is the book, Oaks in Office: Biblical Essays for Political Leaders. These studies are designed to mature public servants in the faith, anchor them in God’s truth, provide a steady diet of sound biblical doctrine, help them develop critical discernment to guide and sustain them in office, and help them build a Christian world view.
The training
Capitol Ministries provides ongoing training that includes videos, books, a training manual, and regional and national conferences. We also provide mentoring and support, accounting, and marketing support, to help you establish, flourish in, and sustain your ministry.
Are you called?
We are seeking biblically reliant men who sense a call to teach the Word of God to those public servants across America whose decisions impact our lives and set the course for our nation. If you perceive God’s call, learn more about joining the CapMin LGM team.

“In the Capitol Ministries Bible study, local leaders were able to see that the Bible deals with everything they deal with politically. Social ills, racism, marriage, theological liberalism, capital punishment, everything is covered in the Bible.”
