They find great fulfillment in helping over 300 African children annually with medical care, education, and learning a trade with a Biblical worldview being the foundation. While continuing to teach and counsel at his local church, Chris has moved into the political world in order to make an impact for the family. He has partnered with American Principles Project (APP). APP is an organization designed, at the very core, to fight politicians who hurt the family and highlight and support those who help the family. APP envisions reforming Texas politics to be fearless in defending the interests of families and children and seek to create an environment where parents are prioritized, children’s innocence is protected, and the family is defended passionately and effectively against woke corporations and progressives. APP will work to ensure these values are once again preeminent in Texas government and that state lawmakers are constantly reminded of whom they ultimately represent: Texas families.
