The Promise Keepers, a 1997 evangelical men's group, is back with a new agenda An evangelical Christian men’s group is trying to make a comeback with a new, more explicitly political agenda. CALDWELL: Though Promise Keepers once touted itself as non-partisan, it's now platforming conservative political voices, like Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt and the state's U.S. senator, James Lankford. But Kristin Kobes Du Mez, historian and author of the book "Jesus And John Wayne," says the Promise Keepers always had political aims, even if they were under the surface.
