Rebuilding America: Evangelism on Capitol Hill - Part 1 with Guests Ralph and Danielle Drollinger

After attending a Youth for Christ Bible study, Ralph Drollinger, a high school basketball player, became a follower of Jesus Christ. For the next four years, NBA teams offered contracts to the seven-foot-two-inch tall athlete. Instead of taking the big money, Ralph joined Athletes in Action and played with the best amateur basketball teams across the globe, even sharing the gospel at halftime. That passion for evangelism has continued in Ralph’s life. On today’s edition of Family Talk, he and his wife, Danielle, share their hearts for those who are lost and have not yet encountered Jesus. Together, the Drollingers founded Capitol Ministries, a non-profit organization with a mission to minister to political leaders with God’s Word.
