The Organisation:
Christian Voice is the trading name of the National Council for Christian Standards in Society, a charity registered in England and Wales. We work UK-wide to bring a Christian perspective to current events, debates and policy in the light of Biblical truth.
The objects of the charity are: ‘The promotion of the principles of historical biblical Christianity and the information and education of the national public and of responsible authorities on the basis of these principles in particular.’
We believe Almighty God is involved in the whole of life and that he blesses those nations and individuals who do things according to his ways. We empower and encourage individual Christians to pray for national repentance and work for Godly government and we also seek to influence policy-makers directly through the machinery of Parliament.
We uphold Christianity as the faith of the United Kingdom, counter anti-Christian prejudice and promote active Christian citizenship through participation in the British political process and fostering close ties with key political institutions and with other Christian prayer and lobby groups.
We are seeking personnel to advance our ministry, promote the Gospel of the King of kings and the theonomic policies we put forward to advance the kingdom of God. Those working for us will have confidence in and commitment to those aims.
Working for Christian Voice is a career-advancing and faith-building opportunity. We expect to see answers to our prayers.
