Johnson’s faith

New Republican speaker of the House of Representatives in the USA, Mike Johnson, is an evangelical, it is reported.

He attends Cypress Baptist Church in Benton, Louisiana. Johnson has reportedly said: ‘I am a Bible-believing Christian. Someone asked me today in the media, they said: "People are curious. What does Mike Johnson think about any issue under the sun?" I said, well, go pick up a Bible off your shelf and read it – that’s my worldview. That’s what I believe and so I make no apologies for it.’
