About the President

Buddy Hanson is President of the Alabama-based Christian Policy Network, an organization he started after a career in corporate marketing and sales training. As the only explicitly Christian lobbyist in Alabama, Buddy works with Christian Legislators to explain whether or not proposed legislation conforms to biblical principles. The mission of the Christian Policy Network is to FRAME the cultural debate according to biblical principles.

Buddy is a former college baseball coach and his teaching style reflects that of a coach who breaks down large cultural issues into small, easy-to-understand fundamentals, then fit them back together into a "Game Plan" in order to illustrate not only what we’re supposed to do, but how to do it.

He writes in the same easy-to-follow coaching style and his numerous books are designed to help us "connect our Spiritual Dots" and live-out our faith. "Spiritual Dots" is a term Buddy uses for those core biblical truths with which we all agree, but for various reasons, hesitate to incorporate into our lifestyle. He is a frequent speaker on Christian worldview issues to churches, Home School organizations, and youth groups, as well as publishing features in various magazines and on internet sites. Buddy is the Alabama representative for Exodus Mandate.

Buddy and his wife, Wanda, have a son and a daughter and five granddaughters and two grandsons.
