What if being "pro-life" simply isn't enough and the Church is called to something greater?

Congress is considering a historic expansion to school choice through the Educational Choice for Children Act, and your voice is needed now. Thank Ohio US Senators Moreno and Husted for supporting school choice!

House Bill 262 is scheduled to receive its first hearing in the Ohio House Community Revitalization Committee today. HB262 would designate the weeks between Mother's Day and Father's Day as "Natural Family Month," recognizing the vital importance of raising children in intact households with a married mom and dad for the economic and social stability of Ohio—one of several policy solutions recommended in CCV’s marriage and family report, Hope and a Future.

A Letter from Center for Christian Virtue Policy Director David Mahan: Yesterday was a heavy one at the Statehouse.

I testified against SB197, a bill that would EXPAND predatory gambling in Ohio through online casinos (iGaming) and video slots in bars and restaurants. Let's be clear: this bill isn't about “entertainment." It's about targeting the poor and addicted for profit.

It's a busy day at the Ohio Statehouse for Center for Christian Virtue (CCV) and our partner ministry, the Christian Business Partnership, with two critical bills receiving hearings and our press conference opposing gambling. 

Center for Christian Virtue (CCV) will host a press conference on Wednesday, May 28, at 12:00 pm at the Ohio Statehouse alongside members of the Ohio General Assembly and pastors from across the state to oppose proposed legislation that would dramatically expand gambling in Ohio.

More than 100 pastors and key leaders from across Ohio have signed a joint letter to Governor Mike DeWine and members of the Ohio General Assembly opposing legislation that would legalize online poker and virtual casino gambling. Coordinated by Center for Christian Virtue (CCV), this statewide coalition of pastors and ministry leaders is calling on lawmakers to reject the proposals that would dramatically expand predatory gambling and harm Ohio families, particularly the poor.

Congress passed a major piece of legislation on the evening of Wednesday, May 21—the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act (HR1) was voted out of the US House of Representatives and on to the US Senate.

House Bill 155 (HB155) would ban discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in Ohio’s public schools, including:

• DEI training or courses, offices, departments, and job descriptions

• Contracts that promote race- or gender-based decision-making

• Rebranding or replacing DEI programs under different names with the same purpose

Do you want your tax dollars supporting an industry that relies on addiction, drains families’ wealth, and targets the most vulnerable? Gambling experts Les Bernal and Dr. Jonathan Krutz, along with school administrator Mark Mousa, unpack the dangerous rise of predatory gambling in Ohio—and why Christians must take a stand. 

There's a new law being considered at the Ohio Statehouse—and it would be devastating for our families and communities.

Join CCV President Aaron Baer, CCV Policy Director David Mahan, and national experts on Wednesday, May 14 at 10:00 am, for a vital conversation on the dangers of expanding gambling in Ohio.

Earlier this afternoon, the Senate Education Committee unanimously passed Senate Bill 158 (SB158) to ban cellphone use in public school buildings, on school grounds, and/or on school premises during school hours.

Before the chaos of culture took over, we used to teach the Success Sequence—and it worked. Now, the Sequence, a proven formula to help young adults avoid poverty and achieve the American Dream, is being withheld from students and pulled from classrooms.
