Communications: An important way that FRC works with its church community is through its communication channels. FRC voices biblical truth and eternal values into the marketplace of ideas which the church can embrace and pass along to their own congregations and networks. FRC's Washington Watch with Tony Perkins, a daily one-hour program, is broadcast on a variety of video and streaming outlets, and is syndicated on radio stations that air in nearly every state. FRC has a strong representation of churches in our broadcast markets. The show allows FRC to cut through the media's filter and speak directly to concerned Americans and churches about how a biblical worldview shapes public policy. FRC President Tony Perkins has hosted dozens of Members of Congress as well as prominent policy experts, authors, pastors, and government officials. FRC co-sponsors the annual Pray Vote Stand Summit, a multi-day in-person and broadcast event featuring numerous speakers and panels. In addition, FRC hosts periodic Pray Vote Stand Townhall events that feature discussions and prayer with various guests. The Washington Stand is FRC's outlet for news and commentary from a biblical worldview. The Washington Stand's team of writers provide daily coverage of a variety of current events and topics. The Washington Stand also produces "Outstanding," a weekly podcast that examines news and issues through the lens of Scripture with an aim to take every thought captive for the obedience of Christ. The FRC Communications team, in collaboration with its Policy experts, made numerous live TV, cable network and radio appearances, and placed op-eds in publications nationwide. FRC also continues to reach, equip, and engage the public and the church via social media.

Policy/Worldview: FRC is committed to producing quality policy research grounded in biblical truth. Its team of policy experts analyzes legislation for its impact on life, the family, and religious freedom. In addition, FRC's Center for Biblical Worldview equips Christians with a biblical worldview and trains them to advance and defend the faith in their families, communities, and the public square. FRC's publications and educational materials apply Christian principles to the pressing cultural and moral questions Americans are facing. Through FRC's extensive network of churches, these resources are disseminated to congregants to keep them informed and equipped with practical action steps of how they can help their local communities. FRC also serves as an extension of the church to the halls of government. The Government Affairs team advocates on behalf of Christians nationwide by working closely with lawmakers on both Capitol Hill and in state legislatures to pass pro-life, pro-family, and pro-religious freedom policies while also advising against legislation that is detrimental to these biblical values.
