Evangelicals consider proper role in politics

 

WASHINGTON (RNS) — The National Association of Evangelicals has drafted a proposed statement on civic engagement that urges the nation’s evangelicals to be more involved in public policy.

The declaration – which touches on topics ranging from addressing poverty to practicing recycling – is being circulated among 100 evangelical leaders for comment before the association’s board votes on it in October.

The Washington-based NAE represents at least 10 million U.S. Christians in about 51 denominations and 250 other ministries.
