Gov. Sanders Unites Faith Leaders in State-Wide Summit
Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders united the faith leaders of her state in the first Arkansas Faith Leader Summit, aiming to tackle some of the state’s biggest issues and to set a model for other states to follow.
From CBN. Hunger continues to be a national concern, and it’s no different here in Arkansas where one food bank alone is providing more than 11 million meals each year.
Pray for your fellow intercessor.
Kent Eikenberry, CEO of the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank, said, “Food insecurity across the nation affects 40 million people, based on the latest number I’ve heard. The problem is far too large for any single organization to solve.” …
Supporting those in need was the reason more than 100 area faith leaders gathered in Little Rock for the first Arkansas Faith Summit.
Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, “There are so many silos within the state, from government to the faith community to the private and public sectors. Bringing everyone together in a collaborative spirit allows us to tackle some of the state’s biggest issues.”
Flanked by her father, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Sanders spoke candidly about her belief that faith is a driving force behind addressing issues like food insecurity, foster care, social media concerns, and educational freedom.
“I hope this becomes an annual event in Arkansas,” said Stephanie Nichols, of the Arkansas Justice Institute, who emphasized the importance of school choice in education and how the state’s LEARNS Act provides funding for parents of eligible students who choose private schooling or homeschooling. …
Governor Sanders recently launched the Arkansas Faith-Based Initiative website, which allows individuals and organizations to connect online and engage in various community initiatives. She noted, “A lot of these entities are already doing some of this work, but bringing them together to work collectively will allow us to make a much bigger impact and potentially make Arkansas a model for other states to follow.” …
The governor told attendees she’s not trying to turn the capitol dome into a church steeple, but encouraged people to live out their faith. And a big part of that, she said, is working together to help others. …
Part of the summit included a discussion on the separation of church and state and how Christians can be bolder in their faith without fear of crossing boundaries. …

God bless you more, Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders. May the Lord direct your steps with wisdom and courage as you bring glory to God by your leadership in Arkansas.
As I read Gov. H. Sanders Faith suggestions for others who are in need and what she is establishing in the state of Ark. yes, food insecurity has become a major concern as well as education for our children, social media and what some states are pushing as transgenedering: for example in church today a young man asked if he could share what is happening in the state of IL. in the libraries- the libaries are having men dressed as women reading books that are sin, sexual books to the children. He wanted to know how many would please show up at the libraries to speak out about this demonized event. IL., does not have the honor of a Faith leader as Gov. as Ark. has. I was reading an article about believers as I quote:” WE LIVE IN A DAY WHERE MOST PEOPLE DO ENOUGH TO GET BY. RATHER THAN TAKING THE TIME TO DO THINGS RIGHT. THEY TAKE AN (oh), THATS GOOD ENOUGH ATTITUDE, AND THE FASTER THEY GO, THE LESS THEY DO.” ( But as believers, that’s not us.”If we are christians excellence is our spiritual DNA! We must remember the scriptures that say-we are anoited with the same excellent HOLY SPIRIT( Acts-1-8) , we’re joint heirs with Jesus, we have an excellent heritage! Romans-8-17 ( And if we are His children , then we are His Heirs also hHeirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ sharing in His inheritance with Him. 2 Corinthians 5-18- Daniel was preferred so why not us? Daniel was under the old Covenant look what He did under the old Covenant: look read the words, we should be able to do more. As Sarah goes forward with her Faith Initiative as they pray and gather knowlwdge in the excellance of God’s glory and put pressure on the devil. Do not let the devil pressure You about selecting a larger Food Bank so they can work with different people with great ideas and powerful prayer times. Philippians 3-8,12, 14 is a great read – read all of these verses you will shout, v 14 says -I press toward the markto win the prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward. I pray these words that this agenda will not slack off and continue to press in what is ours as we press into the Anoited one and His Anoiting. Sarah if you and your Arkanas Faith-Based Initiative press forward you will win and go forward. Forget any failures, just reach for the prize of the Anoiting of my King Jesus. Go forward let Gods light shine upon You. When we step into the Goodness what Gods plans for His children, will be finding enough room for all of the people to help! Sarah keep working, keep Gods Word active in your life. ” Shouldn’t as believers, also be prospering to help others in your state and others being promoted in whatever sphere of which God has called us! (2 Corinthians 4:6-7″)
Thank you, Father, for Governor Sanders and her bringing faith leaders together to work on problems. Bless their efforts to help those who are in need.
This is absolutely thrilling. This article about Arkansas and Gov. Sanders. Because God has clearly shown us over the last few years, that it is the unity of the faithful where God provides the blessing !!!! In unity and humility there is great power unleashed against the enemies of our soul and of our country, so hallelujah! We as the church are finally getting it right !!!! Thank you, Holy Spirit!!!
Thank You God for putting a God fearing governor in position in Arkansas. We pray that other governors will be put into position to seek Your guidance to lead their states. Let Governor Huckabee be an example of what will happen when Christ is put first.
