CCV seeks the good of our neighbors by advocating for public policy that reflects the truth of the Gospel.

When parents are given the freedom to choose an education rooted in biblical truth, students thrive.

The 2026 Ohio State Test scores show that Heritage Christian School students are outperforming the statewide average, all while receiving less than half the funding of neighboring public schools and serving a majority low-income student population. More importantly, students are being equipped with a quality education while being grounded in the truth of God's Word and the dignity of every human life.

Educational freedom matters. By advocating for programs like EdChoice and founding the OCEN Scholarship Granting Organization, CCV has helped more families access education that enables their children to flourish academically, spiritually, and personally.

There’s something special about gathering for prayer at the Statehouse.

Downtown Columbus, a place often seen as a symbol of political power, becomes something different when believers come together to lift up the One who holds all authority.

We look forward to every time we get to be part of it.

Join us Wednesday, October 14.

Where are married couples actually moving?

Domestic migration explains about 30% of the differences in marriage rates between states.

Places like New York and Illinois are seeing married couples leave, while states like Florida and South Carolina are gaining them—and also seeing stronger marriage rates as a result.

Joe Rogan and Russel Crowe seem to understand fatherhood, calling it "possibly the greatest human privilege." And, it is.

A strong nation begins with strong fathers.

🚨 The media and activists are running a coordinated campaign to deceive you. They claim nobody is forcing s*xually explicit material on your children.

They are lying.

During Statehouse hearings, radical activists demanded a "right" to bring adult fetishes, stripping, and simulated s*x acts into family festivals, public parks, and neighborhood libraries.

Worse, because current law is outdated and undefined, a Xenia man was able to invade girls' changing spaces completely naked...WITHOUT legal consequences. We refuse to let activist bullies play games with the safety of our daughters.

⏳ We have until June 10 to pass the Indecent Exposure Modernization Act (HB249) to close this loophole and keep obscene adult kinks and fetishes away from children.

‼️ Take action before it's too late: https://t.co/EnK4IbfbDQ

Many Americans are asking a difficult question: Will the next generation have a better life than we did?

The 2026 Family Structure Index highlights growing concerns about declining homeownership, workforce participation, and economic opportunity. But the data also points to an important reality: communities with strong, stable families are better positioned to thrive.

If we want to restore confidence in the future and strengthen the American Dream, we cannot ignore the role of family formation and stability.

In this week’s Narrative, Mike and David break down what’s ahead at the Ohio Statehouse as lawmakers race toward a packed stretch of major votes before summer recess and an unpredictable lame duck session after the election. From Baby Olivia to indecent exposure legislation, the next two weeks could have major consequences for Ohio politics.

After the news, Noah Rothman joins the conversation to expose a century of radical left-wing extremism and domestic terrorism that’s been systematically swept under the rug.

From the dangerous roots of the "Marxist narrative" to the way groups like the SPLC gaslight the public into thinking left-wing violence is just a myth, this is a reality check the establishment doesn't want you to hear.

Center for Christian Virtue is calling on Ohio’s US Attorneys to enforce existing federal law regarding the interstate mailing of abortion drugs.

Following the recent Supreme Court decision temporarily preserving nationwide mail access to mifepristone, CCV sent letters urging federal prosecutors to investigate abortion providers shipping abortion drugs across state lines and to uphold the Comstock Act.

This week on The Narrative, researcher Parker Thayer pulls back the curtain on troubling patterns inside Ohio’s Medicaid system.

From suspicious billing spikes in newly formed companies to hundreds of thousands of dollars being billed within their first month of operation, the investigation reveals red flags that went largely unchecked. Even more concerning, questions around fraud prevention efforts in the system reveal major gaps in oversight and accountability.

This conversation exposes how fraud can take root when safeguards fail—and why reform matters for taxpayers and vulnerable communities across Ohio.

Time is running out to pass critical legislation that will help strengthen Ohio’s children and families before lawmakers leave for summer break on June 10.

One key bill is the Success Sequence (SB156), which teaches students a proven path to avoid poverty: graduate high school, get a job, and marry before having children. Research shows 97% of young adults who follow this path avoid poverty.

The next opportunity for action is coming soon, and we’re asking for continued prayer and engagement as this bill moves forward.
