Some sparks begin quietly — a burden you can’t shake, a question that keeps coming back, or a moment when someone says, “Why don’t you run?”
 
Candidate Starter Kit: The Spark They Didn’t See is a free introductory resource created for newer candidates who are beginning to discern the call to run for office.
 
This starter kit combines a short story-based flipbook, an MP4 video version, and a practical printable workbook to help you move from stirring to first steps with clarity, faith, and structure.
 
Inside, you’ll find tools to help you reflect on why you feel called, what breaks your heart, what first steps matter, and how to begin preparing without overwhelm. The workbook includes practical pages for ballot access, campaign presence, faith-rooted fundraising, partnership requests, spiritual readiness, and mapping your campaign story.
 
This resource is designed to help you slow down, pray, reflect, and take the next faithful step.
