Practical Government School is a Charis Bible College program described as training students to impact government from a biblical worldview, and it is the clearest direct institutional bridge in the current repo between Derrick Wilburn, Richard Harris, the Truth & Liberty coalition layer, and the Charis ecosystem.
In this repository, Practical Government School is best treated as a program-level entity rather than as a general theme. The direct source set supports program purpose, director identification, and roster-level connections. Newer reporting also says a 2021 Truth & Liberty Coalition Candidate Academy at Charis was developed in cooperation with the program, which strengthens its role as a bridge between educational and candidate-training infrastructure. It still does not support stronger claims that every rostered person was a salaried employee or that the program itself proves broader coordination.
