He explained to Deseret News that, “Democrats tend to be more private about their faith; they don’t wear their faith on their sleeve.” However, through Senator Harris’s public writings, speeches, and interviews, it is not difficult to paint a picture of her religious background and beliefs.

Here are four things that Christians should know about Senator Kamala Harris’s faith:
