Thune told EWTN News Capitol Hill correspondent Erik Rosales on Monday that his parents became Christians “later in life.”
“They were in their 30s, but a friend of my dad’s from high school got them involved in a Bible study,” he said. “They were having some struggles in their marriage and their lives — and they found the Lord that way.”
Thune said he stays grounded by reading Scripture every day.
“Starting off the day in prayer is critical to every day,” he explained. “In a lot of cases, it’s asking for wisdom. This is a job where there are a lot of things coming at you and being able to discern what’s true from what’s false, knowing right and wrong, and asking for the Lord’s guidance on that.”
“It says in James 1:5 [that] if any man asks for wisdom, God will give it to him,” the senator pointed out.
Staunchly pro-life, Thune this month attempted to pass the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, though Senate Democrats stymied the measure.
