When it comes to the future of Australia, what’s important to you and your family?
We need a Christian voice in Parliament to cut through the political noise and promote accountability and integrity in government.
Australian Christians was formed in 2011 to be a bold voice for faith, families and freedom.
As a party, we always strive to model biblical values such as honesty and integrity, hope, respect, moral law, freedom, justice and sacrifice in all we do.
Just imagine what would happen if the 2,500,000 Australians who reportedly attend church, took seriously their mission to be salt and light to their nation.
