The talks are focusing on religion in an increasingly secular society and what the role the Church can play in the modern day.
The Family Research Council was hosting a special meeting and several states people attended, according to The Washington Times.
Senator Ben Sasse (above), a Nebraska Republican, spoke about people's commitment family life.
He said: "Here's the good news I'm going to give you from the field: Americans are not obsessed with politics.
"This town is confused about what the centre of life and meaning is, but America is still largely not they know that the most important things in American life aren't centred in this town."
The Church discussed the difference between public and private life.
Senator Ben Sasse also brought up the lack of people engaging in politics: "The political disengagement of this moment is really something that we should be much more aware of as a crisis of confidence in this country."
There was discussion over whether the church should get involved in politics or not as well.
Jack Hibbs, senior pastor of Calvary Chapel in Chino Hills, California said government would not be content to leave the church alone.
"First of all, let's settle this right now, there is nothing you do that does not involve politics.
"You paid taxes this morning on your breakfast. That's politics.
"You drove in your car, you paid for gas, you put your seat belt on because politics is involved.
"We have to preach the Gospel, empower the people, open the doors of our church and turn them loose, because they've got a culture that is constantly hammering them.
"And they're using culture, using politics, to change lives, to implement a godless worldview and to steal your children and rob your freedom."
Discussions also focused around President Obama's recent order that bathroom and locker use in schools should be based on gender identity.
