EPISODE 0260 | Christians and Local Politics: A Candidate’s Faith Journey

THESE NOTES ACCOMPANY EPISODE 0260

In this special edition of the Under God podcast, Pastor Daniel sits down with Pam Blair, a candidate for District Clerk in Bell County, Texas. A military wife, mother of two, and longtime follower of Jesus, Pam shares her heart for faith, family, and public service—and why she’s stepping up to bring change to a part of local government most people rarely think about.

From her testimony of being miraculously brought back to life as a newborn, to her work in law enforcement and the district clerk’s office, Pam shares how her faith has shaped every step of her journey. This episode is a powerful reminder that when God calls, He equips—and that believers belong in every level of civil leadership.


Main Topics Covered:

  • What a District Clerk actually does—and why it matters

  • Pam’s incredible testimony of God’s healing at birth

  • Moving from skepticism to obedience in politics

  • How motherhood and military life prepared her for public service

  • The need for modernization and stewardship in county records

  • Why Christians must engage in local elections

  • Biblical faithfulness in small things and big roles

Key Takeaways:

  • You don’t have to be political to be called to serve.

  • Stewardship, not spotlight, is what makes government work.

  • Local offices like District Clerk directly impact your daily life.

  • Faith in the public square begins with obedience at home.

  • “This isn’t my race. It’s the Lord’s race.”
