Feucht, who has done mission work in more than 50 nations, including war-torn regions and places where Christianity is under heavy persecution, announced his run over the weekend with a "Rally for America." He is up against John Garamendi, D-Calif.

The 36-year-old Bethel Music artist sings, "We won't stop singing until the whole world looks like heaven" in the background of his first campaign video, which he shared on social media.

"A man of faith, a man of mission, a man of character and integrity, not driven by ego but purpose. A man that knows what feeding the hungry, protecting the vulnerable, fighting for one's beliefs is all about..."

"it's time we stopped complaining and fight back," Feucht Friday night during a rally in Vacaville, in the southern portion of the Northern California district.
