Tim Appleby was participating in a menās study when he discovered his passion and calling through a curriculum developed by former NFL coach Tony Dungy. It encouraged men to find the nexus between their talents, interests or concerns, and areas of involvement. āIāve always been interested in politics; Iāve always been interested in the Bible and government. It all came together for me, and it was pretty simple to connect the dots,ā Tim reveals. Soon, he was introduced to the Salt & Light Council. āI said, āMy goodness, thatās got my name written all over it.āā
In addition to holding well-attended monthly prayer and action meetings, and working with his pastor to host a pre-election event promoting Biblical values, Tim is telling other churches about The Salt & Light Council. āWeāre getting the message out, but itās slow,ā he admits. āWeāre so busy doing everything the way weāve always done it; we never see whatās available thatās new and better. If the Church doesnāt speak up, who will?ā
