'Trying to Be a Servant Leader': A Look at Mike Johnson's Faith

CAPITOL HILL – When we met in the ceremonial room here on Capitol Hill, House Speaker Mike Johnson looked at ease although his job has been anything but. "It's important to note this is not a job I ever aspired to," Speaker Johnson tells CBN News. "We got ourselves in a bit of a pickle here."

That would specifically be a GOP pickle that can go from sweet to sour at any time. He's the first speaker in history to take over in the middle of a session and finds himself in a one-seat Republican majority and a split caucus.

"Democrats typically tend to think more kind of like a union, they sort of stick together, they're more monolithic," Johnson says. "They move as a herd. They're more kind of social animals. Republicans, by contrast, are a rugged individualist. You know, we care deeply about our core principles and our philosophy, and we're not easily moved. And that's a great blessing usually, but when you're trying to keep all those cats together and move in the same direction with a one-vote majority, it sometimes presents challenges."
