The language of Scripture calls people to turn away from selfish desire and focus instead on serving God and their neighbors. That’s why the Christian faith has been a driving force in the movements for abolition, workers’ rights, women’s rights, and civil rights. And it’s why millions of Americans root their identity as Democrats in their faith as Christians.

Indeed, the Bible has thousands of verses promoting the values that Democrats hold dear — protecting the needy, embracing diversity, caring for God's creation, working to resolve conflicts peacefully, and numerous others. Every day, members of our party seek to answer President John F. Kennedy’s call “to go forth and lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth, God's work must truly be our own.”
