Charlie Kirk and Andrew Wommack Challenge the Church to Rise Up and Vote in the 2024 Election
Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, joined Andrew Wommack at Charis Bible College for a powerful evening addressing the crisis facing America and the church's critical role in the upcoming election. With stunning statistics showing 51% of evangelical Christians planning to sit out the election, Kirk delivered an urgent wake-up call about the consequences of Christian apathy. From the border crisis and modern-day slavery to abortion victories under Trump, Kirk dismantled the excuses keeping pastors silent and believers home. Andrew Wommack emphasized biblical stewardship and supporting other ministries' visions, while Lucas Miles warned against the church becoming inoperative and irrelevant. This wasn't just another political rally, it was a clarion call for the body of Christ to stop being cut flowers without foundation and reclaim their role as the conscience of the state.
The Church's Missing Voice in America's Battle
Charlie Kirk stood before a packed auditorium at Charis Bible College in Colorado, delivering what may be one of the most important messages to the American church in this election cycle. Partnering with Andrew Wommack and Turning Point USA, this Freedom Night in America event wasn't just another political gathering—it was a direct challenge to the body of Christ to wake up and engage in the battle for the nation's soul.
Kirk opened by acknowledging the gravity of the moment: "If Kamala Harris wins, it will be because the church handed her the presidency. It is the only missing ingredient that we see right now." His assessment wasn't based on speculation but on hard data from George Barna, the gold standard of polling, showing that 51% of evangelical Christians are planning to stay home on election day.
The statistics paint a sobering picture. Young people are becoming more conservative in historic numbers. Working-class Americans—truck drivers, plumbers, electricians, welders, and police officers—are rising up. Mothers are showing up at school board meetings in unprecedented numbers. The only demographic failing to engage is the one that should care most: the church.
Why Christians Are Sitting Out
Kirk identified three primary reasons for Christian apathy in this election. The first is what he called "a spirit of pomposity and self-righteousness" among some pastors who declare they cannot vote for Donald Trump because he's a sinner. Kirk pointed out the obvious theological flaw: "We are all sinners that fall short of the glory of God and we need Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior."
The second excuse revolves around Trump's pro-life credentials. Kirk, who describes himself as 100% pro-life and has the battle scars to prove it, challenged this narrative head-on. He reminded the audience that under Trump's presidency, the reversal of Roe v. Wade became reality—something even Ronald Reagan couldn't accomplish. Ten states have now abolished abortion completely, including Texas, Oklahoma, and the Dakotas.
"It took a billionaire from New York who wouldn't always necessarily go to church and lived a colorful life—not part of that spirit of pomposity and self-righteousness and sanctimonious garbage we see in our church too often—to get in the arena to fight for babies and save their lives," Kirk declared.
The third reason Christians cite for staying home is cynicism about election integrity. Kirk called this attitude a sin, referencing the Book of Numbers where God despised the Israelites' complaining and despair in the wilderness. He pointed out that in 2020, despite all the controversy, the election came down to just 41,000 ballots across Arizona, Wisconsin, and Georgia—and millions of potential voters stayed home believing their votes wouldn't matter.
Biblical Stewardship and Kingdom Investment
Before Kirk took the stage, Andrew Wommack laid crucial groundwork about biblical stewardship, teaching from Luke 16 about the parable of the unjust steward. Wommack emphasized that being faithful with money is actually the least use of faith, not the most difficult. More importantly, he taught that faithfulness in stewarding another person's vision opens the door for God to finance your own vision.
"This says that if you haven't been faithful stewarding money to help another person's vision, who's going to give you money for your own vision," Wommack explained. This principle applies not just to financial giving but to supporting movements and causes that align with biblical values—like the work of Turning Point USA in mobilizing Christian voters.
Wommack also referenced a Pew Research study showing the catastrophic decline of Christianity in America. In 1972, 90% of Americans identified as Christian. By 2022, that number had plummeted to 63%, while those claiming no religion rose from 5% to 28%. If the trend continues, in 10 to 15 years, less than half of Americans will identify as Christian, and within 20 years, more than half will say they don't believe in God at all.
The Church Under Invasion
Lucas Miles, who now leads Turning Point Faith under Kirk's leadership, addressed the audience about the dual crisis facing the church. While he's written extensively about woke ideology infiltrating progressive Christianity, he turned his focus to evangelical and charismatic churches that have become "inoperative, impotent, inert, irrelevant, immaterial, and incidental."
"Incidental means of minor importance and unlikely to affect the outcome," Miles explained. "If we are going to truly see righteousness reign in America again, if we're to see evil pushed back, we have to get out of those identities as the church and we need to rise up and remind the world and the people of God that the church is called to be the conscience to the state."
Miles tackled the problematic theology of extreme sovereignty doctrine that has paralyzed many Christians into inaction. The belief that "God's in control" and "whatever He wants will happen" has led believers to abdicate their responsibility. Miles pointed out the inconsistency: "Ironically, those people still get up and go to the refrigerator and get dinner. If God wanted you to eat, wouldn't He just float it over there out of the fridge and drop it in your lap?"
Using the parable of the talents from Matthew 25, Miles showed how burying your talent in the sand—failing to invest what God has given you—results in condemnation from the master. He told his congregation that even if Jesus returns on November 6th, Christians should still steward well by voting on November 5th.
The Economic Reality Under Biden-Harris
Kirk addressed the economic devastation under the current administration, framing it in biblical terms of property ownership and stewardship. Private property is a Christian virtue, he explained, pointing to Abraham's purchase of land in Hebron as the first recorded real estate transaction in the Bible.
Under Trump's presidency, a family could buy a home earning $75,000 per year. Now it requires $130,000—nearly $150,000 in the Denver metro area. Housing costs have nearly doubled in four years due to Kamala Harris's policies, including $6 trillion in unnecessary government spending that inflated asset prices and the allowance of 10 million illegal immigrants who need housing.
"We are becoming a nation of renters," Kirk warned. "When you have 10 million new people come into your country and those people need a place to live, it will raise the asset price as well."
The Border Crisis: Modern-Day Slavery
Perhaps Kirk's most passionate and morally urgent argument concerned the border crisis and human trafficking. He asked whether pastors would be in error for not speaking against slavery in America's past. Then he delivered the devastating truth: there are more people being sold into slavery in America right now than at any time in the last couple hundred years.
Kirk detailed how the Biden-Harris administration eliminated DNA testing at the border—a 90-second process that could verify whether adults claiming children were actually related to them. Without this safeguard, 13-year-old girls who've been raped multiple times on their journey north are claimed by muscular 35-year-old pimps as their "daughters" and allowed into the country to become sex slaves.
"There are 320,000 kids that we know of that have gone missing, many of whom are now teenage prostitutes and sex slaves for the cartel in the interior of the United States. But the church is silent," Kirk declared. "This is not happening in Afghanistan. This is not happening in some far-off distant land. This is on our turf, this is in our own nation."
He challenged pastors directly: "Pastors are too interested in bigger buildings and more budgets and not in the fact that kids—God's children—are being sold as sex slaves in our own country."
Debunking the Open Borders Theology
Kirk also addressed the false theology being promoted by what he called "wokey pastors" through campaigns like the "He Gets Us" advertisements. These pastors claim Jesus wanted open borders, but Kirk dismantled this argument biblically.
"Jesus and the scriptures call for us to love the sojourner, to love the foreigner. However, borders is an explicitly biblical idea," Kirk explained. He pointed out that Trump's favorite book of the Bible is Nehemiah—the entire book is about building a wall.
Kirk traced the biblical concept of national sovereignty back to Genesis 11 and the Tower of Babel, where God scattered people into different nations with different languages because He rejected Nimrod's vision of a one-world government. "God wanted smaller micro-communities of governance, not the World Economic Forum, which of course is what Kamala is pushing us towards."
The Arizona Ground Game
Despite the challenges, Kirk shared encouraging news from battleground states. In Arizona, where he focuses much of his energy, Republicans are beating Democrats in early voting and crushing them in voter registration. They were down 18 points at this point in 2020; now they're up 12 points.
In Georgia and North Carolina, despite the devastating hurricane that left people without power, internet, or homes, voters are crawling over debris to cast their ballots in record numbers. "The highest ever turnout they've seen in Western North Carolina," Kirk reported.
Turning Point USA operates the largest get-out-the-vote turnout operation in the country with one goal: to get Donald Trump back in the White House to save the country. With over 40 staff members calling on pastors daily, Turning Point Faith is working to mobilize the sleeping giant of the American church.
A Call to Reject Cynicism and Despair
Kirk called cynicism and despair a sin, reminding Christians that every action should glorify God—from what we eat to who we marry to how we vote. He rejected the argument that voting isn't 100% secure by pointing out that he can 100% guarantee Democrats will take over the country if Christians don't vote.
Hundreds of cities have tightened election security since 2020, and there are secure ways to vote—whether walking your mail-in ballot directly to the county recorder's office or voting in person on election day.
"The easiest way to make sure your vote won't be counted is not to vote," Kirk stated plainly.
Higher Standards for Trump Than Pastors
In one of the evening's most pointed challenges, Kirk addressed Christians who hold Trump to a higher standard than their own pastors. "Don't hold Donald Trump to a higher standard than you hold your pastor to. If I have to hear from another Christian, 'Well, you know, Donald Trump's not as pro-life as me,' I say, 'Well, has your pastor spoke out regularly against the slaughter of the unborn?' 'Well, no, my pastor doesn't do politics.' Oh, so you want Donald Trump to speak out on holy matters when the person you tithe and offer to, that you call your home church, won't even whisper about it? Got it."
Kirk also reminded the audience that George W. Bush, whom many Christians supported, had a pro-choice wife and never spoke at the March for Life or appointed pro-life justices. Yet Trump, despite his imperfections, delivered the reversal of Roe v. Wade and appointed three solidly pro-life Supreme Court justices.
The Church as the Conscience of the State
Throughout the evening, speakers emphasized that the church's proper role is not to conform to culture but to lead it. A church should be a place of correction and salvation, not affirmation and motivation. As Kirk put it, "Church is not a place where you go to be affirmed. Church is a place where you go to be saved and corrected."
The comparison to historical moments of moral crisis was clear. Just as silence during slavery was consent, and silence during the Holocaust was consent, silence now in the face of abortion on demand, human trafficking, and the persecution of Christian values is consent.
"Don't judge the world for their failure if the church is silent," Kirk warned. "We will be held to a higher account."
Truth and Liberty's Mobilization Efforts
The evening also highlighted the extensive work of Truth and Liberty Coalition in Colorado. The organization has printed and distributed over 3.5 million voter guides—both in paper and digital formats—across all six regions of Colorado. These nonpartisan, 501(c)(3)-compliant guides show voters where candidates stand on issues without telling them how to vote.
Their digital campaign is already making a measurable difference in turnout, and they've successfully flipped multiple school boards from progressive to conservative control. Truth and Liberty has also launched a new website at truthandliberty.net featuring a comprehensive resource center with links to hundreds of articles, training materials, historical documents, and America's founding documents.
The organization created a Civic Action Checklist available via QR code, providing practical steps every Christian can take to engage in the political process—from registering to vote and picking up voter guides to sharing them with friends and family.
The Stakes Couldn't Be Higher
As the evening drew to a close, the message was unmistakable: America stands at a crossroads, and the church holds the key to which direction the nation will take. With George Barna predicting a 33% decrease in Christian voter turnout and the vast majority of pastors remaining silent about the election, the outcome hangs in the balance.
Kirk assessed the odds at 50/50, but made clear that it wouldn't be close if the church would simply do what it's called to do. "If 31 million evangelicals are planning to stay at home, it's easy to blame them, but who deserves the condemnation and the challenging? The trembling pastors that shake like a leaf if you dare say anything that might make people offended."
The evening concluded with a collection for Turning Point USA, with Andrew Wommack teaching on using money to affect your future in eternity and encouraging attendees to invest in another man's vision as an act of biblical stewardship.
Local political leaders in attendance included Congresswoman Lauren Boebert, Heidi Ganahl (2022 Republican nominee for governor), State Senator Mark Baisley, State Representative Stephanie Luck, Sheriff Jason Mikesell, and Congressional candidate Sergey Matveyuk, along with school officials and community leaders—all evidence that Colorado conservatives are organizing and fighting to turn their state red again.
With 18 days until the election, the message was clear: the church can no longer afford to be inoperative, impotent, or incidental. The battle for America's soul requires every Christian to rise up, vote, and reclaim their role as the conscience of the nation.

need me tonight probably to tell you that America is in a crisis you know inflation robbing people of their hardend paychecks our national debt stands at $36 trillion and going up a trillion dollars every four months our military is at its lowest levels of preparedness in decades and we have virtually an open Southern border but on top of these and more importantly is the spiritual crisis that our nation is facing we have drag queen Story Hour in our public libraries kids being groomed in our public schools for transgenderism and homosexuality hidden from their parents undergoing mutilating surgeries all in the name of gender that can't be defined we have a fatherless crisis a fatherhood crisis in America where one out of four kids born in this country do not have a father in their home we've got a suicide epidemic among our teens and our veterans censorship on open display and most people under the age of 40 believe socialism is preferable to free enterprise there's a PE there was a research uh study done a few years ago by the Pew Research Foundation if we can pull that slide up um this graph when I saw it two years ago it was like someone punched me in the stomach I fell back in my chair in disbelief I knew that we were having trouble but I didn't realize how fastly things were progressing folks this survey asks Americans what religion do you identify with the Top Line you see is Christian Christianity it begins in 1972 and rans all the way to 22 2022 and you can see that the line is fairly steady up until 1992 and it runs at about 89 90 91% of Americans let that sink in 90% of Americans for decades and I know that if you took it even further back it would be even higher claim that they're Christian or at least identify as Christian the bottom line of the graph are other religions Islam Hinduism other stuff like that you can see it's unchanged the middle line are the nuns these are not Catholics okay these are n o NE e these are the people that say I don't believe in God I have no religion in 2022 the percentage of Americans who claimed Christianity as their faith had fallen to 63% the percentage of people who reject God faith in God had risen to 28% from around five or six at this rate in 10 to 15 years America less than a majority of Americans will even identify and much less name the name of Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior less than a majority will identify as Christians likewise the bottom is also true in 20 years more than half of Americans will say they do not believe in God Jesus commanded Us in the Great Commission to go and teach All Nations baptizing them in the name of the father and the Son and the Holy Spirit teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I've commanded you and lo I'm with you always even under the end of the age and I want to say to you today church I want to ask you a question if the way we're doing church is the way we're doing Church working so we need to ask ourselves as the body of Christ what are we doing wrong or what should we do differently I believe that the Great Commission tells us number one we need to realize it's a command to go but we're expecting people to come right it's a command to make disciples and yet we're focused on making converts right it's a command to disciple Nations and we're solely focused on individuals and it's a command to teach all things whatsoever I've commanded and yet we're picking and chooses choosing our favorite passages but I believe that a Revival is underway I believe a Great Awakening is underway you've seen if you haven't seen our film yet hope for the future about 700 of you came early and saw it you need to see it you can go out to the the truth and Liberty table tonight and pick up your copy or you can get one by becoming a truth and Liberty member but God is on the move and he's doing amazing things but did you know God moves through us doesn't he right and we have to get into the fight we have to get into the game and we have to do our part and so the biggest issue in my mind is that the church is no longer engaged the church has withdrawn we've withdrawn from education we've withdrawn from entertainment we've withdrawn from government truth and Liberty's mission is to educate unify and mobilize the body of Christ to stand for truth in the Public Square to do this we have five strategic initiatives I want to review those with you just real quickly the first one is our show the truth and Liberty show as I mentioned earlier airs twice weekly and on our show we bring on uh Christian leaders everywhere from the the local state representative or count count commissioner all the way up to congressman and Generals where we're trying to bring to you information about what's really going on in the country what the good that's being done some of the greatest and and leading organizations in the nation uh their their uh Founders and presidents have been on our show as our guests and we equip you with a Biblical perspective on the issues of our day second is our events so if we can scroll to the um the next sline uh we have uh two Signature Events the first one that you see here is our annual awards banquet last year in May of this year we had an amazing time Riley Gaines was our keynote speaker and we uh yeah it was fantastic and um at our banquet we recognize believers who have stood for truth and who have been persecuted or paid the price and so last year we gave an award to the Samuel Adams award to Pat Bradley and the Samuel Whitmore award to Coach Joe Kennedy our next year our banquet's going to be on May the 2nd 2025 and it I can't announce the details yet but it's going to be awesome also our annual conference the truth and Liberty conference happens just close to the 911 holiday and this last conference I had people telling me it was the best yet uh you know uh we had some amazing speakers including uh Ben Carson Rick green Bill Federer uh and many many others it was a great time with more than 50 exhibitors Conservative Christian organizations where you can come and get connected and get involved and so uh uh make a note on your calendar to come to our next Conference next year but also I want to mention our next strategic initiative our digital our digital media outreach so as I mentioned and as you saw we have a brand new website and I am I'm not a I'm really not a geek I don't think but I'm really excited about this website because what we've done Andrew's heart and vision has been for truth and Liberty to be a Clearing House of information and resources and tools so the body of Christ can come and get what they need to get engaged and get uh uh get equipped and so we have developed a resources Center on this website that I honestly believe doesn't there's nothing like it out there anywhere we have hundreds of links to articles to training material to uh historical material uh his uh America's founding documents uh and many other things we also link to all of our strategic partners and to every single truth and Liberty episode that's ever been recorded it is a powerful tool where you can find the information you need to stand for truth and uh so I encourage you to check that out also you may not know it but the truth and Liberty website has a 24/7 uh 365 news feed from over 50 different conservative news sources everything from uh news about abortion to freedom of religion to just general political news news about Israel whatever you want we've got it there a One-Stop shop you don't need to go anywhere else and it's all been rebuilt and designed to be uh super uh user friendly and visually attractive and I'm just really excited about that so check that out but the other thing you need to do if you if you're not a truth and Liberty subscriber can I ask you guys how many of you are subscribers to our emails all right not near enough you guys need to go on our website at truth and liberty.net And subscribe so that you be getting all of the awesome emails that we send out that equip you with the latest information announcements action alerts uh blogs articles opinion pieces and things like that that will also help you to be equipped all right so um the next strategic initiative I wanted to mention is uh well hope for the future I think we've got a slide for it I I hope we get to make more of these films because I just think this one turned out so great and uh this was produced by the awm team here but uh you know under the banner of Truth and Liberty and so we're going to do more of that stuff in the future next I wanted to mention mobilization so truth and Liberty is laser focused on the state of Colorado we figure if we can get Colorado turned back red then we are going to have something we can take around the country so there's a lot of other great folks and organizations that are working with this like the road to Red with Heidi ganal and many others but I wanted to mention to you we have printed and and produced now over three and a half million voter guides both in paper and digitally and I was just talking to a political consultant yesterday that our digital campaign this year is making a huge difference in the turnout already he can see it in the statistics and we have flipped multiple school boards from Progressive to conservative control not by not by telling people how to vote but just giving them a nonpartisan voter guide so uh uh the last thing I want to mention is collaboration you see on a screen some of our strategic partners and that by me no means is everyone but we've spent the last several years building relationships with the leading organizations nationally and here in Colorado because we believe that the church needs to unite and that if we can work at a strategic level together we're going to be far more effective than if we continue to operate in our individual silos so we believe at truth and Liberty that what matters is not getting just it's not enough to just get excited right it's not enough just to get pumped up and fired up we need to get involved and we need to take action so I've created uh something for you tonight that all of you can download take home with you if we could go to the uh the next slide please it's called a Civic action checklist and and here I want to give you the things that you can do each and every one of you to get involved now how many of you plan to vote in this election all right pretty good numbers I saw some hands not up but I think he's from Norway so it's okay but everybody needs to vote if you're not if you're not voting you need to guys you can register to vote check your voter registration right here at this conference out at the truth and Liberty Booth um but also you can pick up a voter's guide so that you vote uh you're an informed voter and you're a responsible voter um the the third thing is I'd like for you guys to share our voter guides with all your friends and family right go to the link at transform col.org and blast that out to all your now we don't want it going to people who kind of don't think the way we do right but send it to all your friends and family so that they know how to vote as well and many other things that you can do to get involved I'm out of time now but here's the thing there's a QR code on your screen you can point your phone at it right now and Download a pdf of this Civic action checklist you don't have to do everything on the list but let me tell you if you'll do even 2third of the things on this list you are going to be the cream of the crop the elite the most effective engaged Christian in your family in your neighborhood and guess what it's not that hard and also if you just want to stop by our table at truth and Liberty afterwards uh the QR code is there as well and you can scan it if you're having trouble uh tonight getting it off the screen there but take advantage of this Civic action checklist so that you can do more than just attend a conference and that you can actually get involved and make a difference all right so right now I would like to invite Luke you're still coming up oh are you okay Andrew's coming up all right uh all right well let me introduce to you tonight uh the founder and president of Andrew wck Ministries Caris Bible College truth and Liberty Coalition and uh an amazing man sorry about praise God praise the Lord thank you thank you very much what it's great to see everybody turn out how many of you this is your first time here on our campus can I man lots of people is there anybody that came from out of state all the way here and we've even got people well some of our speakers well what a blessing it's an honor to have uh Turning Point USA come and be a part of this and what an honor you know we are in a battle for this nation and in my opinion I think that this is probably a more deadly battle than World War II the Civil War the revolution War because it's subtle some people don't know that we're in the battle and so they're sitting out whereas when you have somebody pointing a gun at you it's pretty obvious so uh we are trying to wake up the nation and what a blessing to have Charlie Kirk and all of his team here and uh be a part of it praise God so tonight I'm going to receive an offering I want to let you know that Charlie and the uh people came here they aren't asking for a thing they came without any demands but we want to bless them and I want to share this with you out of uh Luke chap 16 I have hours and hours worth of teaching on this but I just want to focus on one thing if our ushers would go ahead and pass out the envelopes uh pass those down uh we've got information there that you can give also they'll put on the screens how that you can give this is giving to truth and Liberty and we will give them all of the money that comes in every bit of this will go towards uh Turning Point USA but in the 16th chapter of Luke is where the Jesus taught a parable about a man who was a steward and was stealing money from his master the master found out called him to task and said if what I've heard is true you're going to be fired the man went ahead and continued to steal money but this time instead of putting it in his pocket he began to use the money that he was stealing from his master to bribe people and the logic behind it was he knew he was going to be fired because he was guilty and he was using this money to bribe people so that when he was fired he could go and knock on their door and say do you remember how I discounted your account and they would feel obligated to be able to help him and instead of the master condemning him he did go ahead and fire him he it wasn't that he was unjust he did deal with this but he actually commended this man because finally he began to realize that using money to affect your future is the greatest use of your money that you can come by and but prior to this time this guy had been stealing money but he hadn't saved any of it he had been blowing it on things and so he actually commended him and here's what Jesus said in the ninth verse of Luke chapter 16 he said I say unto you make to yourselves Friends of the Mammon of unrighteousness that when you fail they may receive you into Everlasting in habitations again the King James that I'm reading from this is a little wordy but what he's talking about is use money to affect your future so that when you fail that word was translated die other people other places in scripture it's talking about when you die there would actually be people who've been touched by your use of money who would be there in heaven to welcome you into heaven now man that is powerful right there if we could really understand that you could take something that is temporary that is going to be burnt up and someday not exist money is not going to exist in heaven I saw a little cartoon about a guy that had a big suitcase and when he got to the Pearly Gates they said what's in the suitcase and so he opened it up and showed them and it was all it was just filled with gold and the angel said why did you bring pavement up here money doesn't mean anything in heaven but it but you can take something that's going to be uh Gone someday and you can turn it into chains lives that will literally affect your future in eternity people will be coming by your Mansion thanking you for the way that you use money to affect their lives so that's what he's talking about and then he said this in verse 10 he said for um in verse 10 he that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much and he that is unjust in that which is least is unjust also in much and most people don't make this connection but did you know that being faithful with your money is the least use of believing God a lot of people think this is for the mature Christian let's forget this part let's you know this is only for the mature Christian it says this is the least use of your faith and again I've got a lot of things I'd love to say about that but in the next verse he said if therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous Mammon talking about money who will commit to your trust the true riches money is not the greatest asset money is just a tool there's so many other things that are more important than money you can't buy a health with money you can't buy happiness you can't buy a lot of things with money and then the next verse says if you have not been faithful in that which is another man's who will give you that which is your own and here's another link that people don't make they think about just taking their money and being a steward and giving in an offering but this says that if you haven't been faithful stewarding money to help another person's Vision who's going to give you money for your own Vision that's important I'm sure that there's people in here that are are believing God and you have things that you feel like God has put on your heart but did you know before God will commit to you the true riches you got to be faithful in somebody else's vision that's really important so I said all of that to say that tonight we have an opportunity to invest in a Ministry that is affecting uh the United States and I'm sure far beyond the United States but some of the leaders in this battle for our nation and we have an opportunity to invest in another man's Vision God put it in his heart but as we invest in that then as you're faithful in helping another man's Vision God will give you finances to be able to finance your own Vision the things that God has given you so I just want to encourage you tonight to be generous again Charlie came didn't ask for anything he came just whether we give him anything or not I want to bless him for that amen so will y'all help me do that so whatever you determined to give just double it right now and let's bless Charlie and and turning point USA so father we thank you for these truths we thank you Father that as we Steward not only our finances but we help another man's Vision that this is going to open up a door for us to have our own Vision supplied and we thank you for that father and we believe that for every person that gives that you multiply this back unto them supernaturally and we thank you that this money will be used to help us win this battle for the heart and the soul of this nation and so father we thank you for that and receive it in the name of Jesus Amen praise God you can receive the offering and now it's my pleasure to introduce Lucas miles Lucas has been a person that I've known for maybe 20 years or so he pastors up in South Bend or it's not in South Bend but it's one of the suburbs of southb Indiana influence church is that right and I learned today he was on our television program and he said that it's influence with starts with an N because there is no I in influence I thought that was really sharp but anyway Lucas is here he was on a program with us today he spoke at our truth and Liberty conference this last year so this is Lucas miles he's now working with Charlie Kirk here for Turning Point USA Lucas miles thanks brother thank you how we doing it is good to to be here at back at Caris and uh with how many people have been blessed by Andrew wck can we hear that I'm going to keep telling him till he gets sick of it but this guy changed my life he really did and uh I I was I'm a recovering human doing who is now a human being because I got the message of Grace and uh I'm I always tell people I'm a recovering legalist and uh I am just so thankful to be set free and to understand the gospel and uh I I don't I don't know where I'd be without that and so we are Christy and I both are very indead my wife Chrissy is here my sister Hannah as well and uh we've been spending the day we've done uh TV with Richard earlier uh as well as Andrew and and Mike and Carrie and so you guys have just been absolutely fabulous uh you guys have such a blessing here in this part of your state and just in your backyard and it is just so good to be before you uh as as you know as Andrew mentioned though we're talking about a pretty serious topic here tonight and that is the really the state of the church and the state of our nation I have written a lot about this idea that the church has been invaded and and you know I've written a book called the chrisan left in a book called woke Jesus and I've really you know drilled down hard on these ideas that the church has been infiltrated by this woke ideology that has crept into the church and although I spent a lot of my time talking about that and kind of the Progressive Church that we're seeing I want to kind of turn our Focus tonight and I want to bring us back to what I would would call the biblical Church the Evangelical Church maybe even the charismatic church but unfortunately I believe that there is also a word for us as well because we've seen some recent stats I think it was Dr George Bara actually Richard and I were talking about this today uh the statistics are that something like 51% of churchgoing Christians are not planning on voting in this election and and this is absolutely absolutely a tragedy and it should not be so in addition to the church being invaded I believe that there are also some other words that start with an I that is happening with the church right now I believe the church has been rendered inoperative impotent inert irrelevant immaterial and incidental what does incidental mean of minor importance and unlikely to affect the outcome see I believe that if we are going to truly see righteousness reign in America again if we're to see evil push back we have to get out of those identities as the church and we need to rise up and remind the world and the people of God that the church is called to be the conscience to the state we are called to be that City on a Hill that the world looks at and understands and identifies what right righteousness is what Holiness is and we can do that in Grace but I'll tell you one of the things and this was something that Andrew really blessed me when I when I started understanding this issue of sovereignty and if you've never heard his teaching on the you know the the the errors of extreme sovereignty Doctrine what you will recognize is the people that are sitting back and just saying oh it doesn't matter Jesus is in control you know God's in control whatever he wants to have happen it's going to happen it doesn't matter and I'm just going to sit back and I don't need to vote I don't need to do anything you know ironically those people still get up and go to the refrigerator and get dinner I mean if God wanted you to eat wouldn't he just float it over there out of the fridge and drop it in your lap see we've got this this sovereignty Doctrine has actually kept a lot of Christians you know from taking any sort of action we've become so overp spiritualized that we're actually doing nothing you know there's there's a word in Matthew 25 Jesus gives this Parable and I was afraid for a second that Andrew was going there in his teaching and because last time I was here the guy before me preached my message and I had to switch it last minute and I had to repent to Andrew because I knew afterwards I was supposed to double down and uh and and just give us a double dose of that but uh thanks for not stepping on me tonight Andrew I appreciate that you know we see here in Matthew 25 the parable of the talents in in verse 14 it says this for it is just like a man about to go on a journey he called his own servants and it trusted his possessions to them to one he gave five talents to another two talents to another one Talent depending on each one's ability and you go on and you see in the story and what happens the one with five talents invests that and he brings about a significant return for his master the one with two talents invests that brings about a return for his master the one with one Talent what does he do he goes and puts it in the sand because he knows his master's coming back and he wants to make sure he's got it there for him when he gets home and I'll tell you I think that there are a lot of people in the body of Christ today that because we're sitting there go well Jesus is coming back that what we're actually doing is we're burying our talent in the sand now I don't believe that in this passage Jesus was only talking about voting I believe he was talking about this idea of stewardship in general but voting is one aspect of our Biblical stewardship that we are commanded to do well I've told my church I preached this last Sunday I don't care if Jesus comes back on November 6th I still believe that we should steward well up until his return and we should show up at the poll on November [Applause] 5th I think that is so critical that we recognize this see there are a couple ways that you can throw away your talent your responsibility your your um uh your your items in your life right now that you are stewarding specifically in regards to this election there are two ways if you want to know how to really just be the worst Steward imaginable here are the two ways to do it the first thing you can do is you can throw away your vote on some sort of candidate that is going to promote Marxist ideology that hates this nation and is really purposefully doing things to tear it down and they stand opposed to everything that the Bible stands for and there are people that are unfortunately in the church that are that have have fallen for really this propaganda that's out there you know it's interesting during Co all of a sudden people would never quote the Bible their entire lives they had knew two verses love your neighbor and submit to you know governing authorities in Romans 131 I mean it's the only verses they know but they were they were convenient for them see I call that actually herodian politics it's it's that you know King Herod loved to listen to John the Baptist preach that is until he rebuked him and see the state loves the church as long as it will bow down to its initiatives as long as it will be a mouthpiece for its propaganda but if you stand up and say something otherwise you might have to sue the governor and so let's use our talents wisely I didn't tell you the second way to bury your talent the second way to bury the talent is not to use it at all and to throw away your vote in the name of spirituality that you're so holy and righteous that that you don't even need to participate IP at in that cuz that's part of the earth system well guess what the your car is part of the part of the earth system too and you still drove it here so let's recognize that we have a job to do to be the conscience of the state in that way I'm been so blessed and my worlds are kind of colliding here because these two men have impacted my life greatly and and you know to to really help you know understand the gospel of grace through Andrew wck and I tell you I got a call from this man that I respect very dearly who now happens to be my boss and I would say that if he wasn't as well and I got a call from him the week of the 4th of July and he says hey I I I don't know what you're going to think about this but I feel like that that the Lord's kind of led me to to choose you to oversee tpusa faith and really what we do and and he kind of goes on he told told me about it and at first I just thought he was asking me to be a spiritual adviser and I was like of course and then I realized really the gravity of what he was asking because he has built something for his passion for the church he has built just a mechanism a team team of people and we've got 40 plus staff that are in the field calling on pastors every single day meeting with them encouraging them lifting up their arms to stand strong and he doesn't have to do that he doesn't he's got enough things on his plate he doesn't have to think about that but he knows the importance of the church and I'm I've been honored to step in that lead role and really to see this thing grow and I believe this is just the beginning I'll tell you what I believe that something really important in the kingdom of God is happening tonight with these two people coming together let's do this I think we have a short video and then uh we'll turn it over to our speakers great yeah great I'm sorry we didn't give you an introduction we thought there was going to be a video that that is okay this is so this is Charlie [Applause] [Music] KK awesome well we've heard Lucas mentioned uh this new study that's out from George Bara showing that 51% of Evangelical Christians aren't planning to vote in this election I was just wondering if you could comment on that and share do do you have any thoughts about what's causing that level of apathy number one number two what can we do to change it in the little time we have left yeah well first uh honored to be here everybody and um Andrew you do such a great job and he should be applauded for the great work he does I'll tell you it's it's it's really really terrif um so so why am I in Colorado with 18 days to go you know I'm in crisscross in the state of Arizona we're chasing ballots by the way we are be the Democrats in early voting in Arizona and and we're beating them badly by the way it's really great we were down 18 points at this time in 2020 we are up 12 points right now at the same time so we're really seeing a big change there but I this really uh came to be with a meeting I had with Lucas who we're just we're so honored that he's leading tpsa faith and he's doing a wonderful job where I said Lucas we have to wake up the church I am seeing warning signs I said wear out west you know cuz geographically and positionally I need to stay near Arizona cuz that's really my passion right now and my home can I go and address a big audience where hopefully he could be heard um you know on Christian television and he said well how about Andrew's place I said he'll have me I'll be there and so that's really what came there and it this was because of the Barna study and because of what I've been seeing and again we we have the largest get out the vote turnout operation in the country with one goal to get Donald Trump back in the white house to save the country right that that is our goal and and we we can spend a lot of time at a future date Andrew you know diving into why he's the best candidate all that I will talk about that from a Christian perspective I think it's rather self-evident of exactly the stakes and what's going on but what is so perplexing to me is that now this is my third or fourth major presidential cycle and I've seen kind of the Baseline of what we can expect out of church engagement why the church cares so little about the country at this particular juncture and I can tell you George Bar's data is correct because we see this from other Pastor Summits that were done by other organizations where people are going up saying there is no good CA Godly candidate here sit this one out where we are hearing I'm on these text message threads of some pastors that are saying we are not going to tell our congregation to speak out whatsoever and here I am just kind of as the idol Observer doing everything I can to hold myself back and I I wanted tonight to be an opportunity to speak clearly to the church to the Christian Community here to not just encourage but challenge motivate but also get off your tails and do something in this election right now amen amen because it is the missing ingredient and so let me be as blunt as possible if kamla Harris wins it will be because the church handed her the presidency it is the only missing ingredient that we see right now I do TV for a living guess what young people are coming our way in a historic way young men are the most conservative they've been in 50 years so so you can't say oh it's all a bunch of those college kids at Boulder Heidi will tell you I was at Boulder a couple weeks ago we had thousands of kids show up so it's not their fault guess who else is rising up the muscular class the working class of this country the truck drivers the plumbers electricians the welders the police officers so you can't blame them we have moms that go to Schoolboard meetings that are rising up in huge numbers so you can't blame them what I'm getting at is the missing ingredient is what we've always taken for granted is that the church actually cared about the nation and I cannot say this in I am not exaggerating it George barno who is the gold standard of polling this guy is not just some random person that they've selected has said that we are on Pace for a 133% decrease of Christian turnout he has pulled thousands of pastors the vast majority of which will not even speak about this election and this is a five alarm fire in the clearest terms so why is this happening there are three reasons the first of which is that there is this Spirit of pomposity and self-righteousness that some pastors have decided to invoke where they will say I am a Christian and I'm a Believer in Jesus Donald Trump is a sinner and I can't vote for a sinner now for any of you that have opened your Bible you know how outrageous this is we are all sinners that fall short of the glory of God and we need Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior amen and I apologize I'm giv a longer answer but this is I I do talk for a living and we're low on time we got a country to save here people and secondly when they'll also say and I want to lean right into this they'll say but Donald Trump is is not pro-life how I'd like him to be now I'm 100% pro-life to the place where I I will speak at pro-life pregnancy centers across the country I donate to them I raise money for them I go into hostile liberal College environments and make an absolutist and an abolitionist argument when it comes to abortion you will not find someone that has the Battle Scars of the pro-life movement like I do and yet I look at Trump's record outside of the rhetoric because talk is cheap and I say wait a second we have 10 states that have abolished abortion do you know that we have Texas okahoma the dtas that is only possible thanks to Donald J Trump George W bush didn't give that to you Ronald Reagan didn't give that to you nuk Gish didn't give that to you God bless him it was Donald J Trump that gave you Amy Cony Barrett Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanagh the most pro-life victories we've ever seen in history and and let's even zero in on the rhetoric When Donald Trump is asked he defends the reversal of Row versus weight he'll say this is what legal Scholars wanted it sending it back to the States so we have 10 states that have abolished abortion completely you know that was a dream I was told that would never happen by some of the more cynical voices am I right Andrew in that way people said oh that's never going to happen and yet it took a billionaire from New York who wouldn't always necessarily go to church and live the colorful life not part of that Spirit of pomposity and self-righteousness and sanctimonious garbage we see in our church too often to get in the arena to fight for babies and save their lives and so but they say oh Charlie you know his rhetoric again talk is cheap he showed the type of justices he'll put up he has also been morally clear against the horrors of late term abortion but again let's just talk about the reality here you're trying to tell me you can stay silent cuz silence is consent silence is consent when slavery was happening oh you know I said nothing consent when the Googs were happening in Soviet Union silence consent aitz silence consent oh I'm going to be silent and not vote for KLA Harris uh because I'm I'm more Godly than another person you are co-signing therefore on a Democrat Party that has abortion clinics outside of their National Convention I saw it with my own eyes when I went to the DNC in Chicago which by the way one of my greatest accomplishments ever breaking into the DNC and getting onto the floor of the DNC it's amazing they truly are the party of open borders it's really amazing no restrictions I got right down there eventually they did Deport me but that's a separate issue so I saw with my own eyes abortion clinics of women holding babies in their in utero and they walk out without the baby that's what the DNC in their official sponsored encouraged programming had at their National Convention Joe Biden and KL Harris turned Easter into the transgender day of awareness remember that that's right and so I'm I can go I'm we're going to go really deep in the policy here but just on that one sticking issue that I hear from pastors he's not as pro-life as I like to be and I always say did you vote for George W bush oh yeah and he's a great Christian really a great Christian whose wife was pro-choice and he never ever spoke at the March for life and never gave us pro-life justices so there's something else here man and what exactly is it let me tell you you are too high on your own supply of Christian doctrine and you don't like the fact that Donald Trump is not quoting Bible verses all the time even the fact he's delivering victories for us Christians all the time so maybe you should humble yourself before the Lord and realize he's being used as a vessel for God's purposes here in this country amen it's awesome awesome man I don't have much to add to that where do you think we stand as far as the election goes I know we're in a battle but where do you think we are let me tell you that the positive and the challenging is that the early voter turnout is amazing right now I mean in Georgia and North Carolina where the terrible hurricane hit despite the fact that people do not have internet they don't have power electricity the colder weather is coming in some people's are home homes are destroyed the highest ever turnout they've seen in Western North Carolina despite all of them praise the Lord they they they are literally crawling over debris to go vote in this election in Arizona we're beating them in early voting we crush them in voter registration but there this is not the time to celebrate we are up against a beast a machine that will do anything to hold on to power right and so that's why I'm here because I'm looking at I'm saying huh this thing's going to be close and we're playing without our our our anchor we are playing like cut flowers right now what happens when you cut flowers and you put them in a you lose your foundation those flowers die and cut flowers is what's happening in the country you cut out flowers from the church which is the foundation they're going to wither and so I think our chances are 50/50 right now but it wouldn't be 50/50 if the church spoke up amen I'm telling you if 31 evangelic 31 million evangelicals are planning to stay at home and it's easy to blame them but who deserves the condemnation and the challenging is the trembling pastors that shake like a leaf if you dare say anything that might make people offended let's remind each other what church is church is not a place where you go to be affirmed church is a place where you go to be saved and corrected it is not a place to be told about how your lifestyle is the greatest thing ever you go there to be reminded that you need a savior and that your life is currently in error but people don't like that they say well that's not very nice if I tell the people that come to church in that way well hold on a second what exactly are you running here is it a church which is about correction and elevating the Divine or is it a place where a TED Talk occurs with organized parking above average coffee and a mo motivational speech and good music with nice lights what exactly are you running there you see a church in its proper context as Andrew has done a great job throughout his career and what a great example by the way for other pastors to follow a church should be unafraid to go against the culture and not form to the world but preach the word the church amen amen The Church Must lead culture and allow me to say one other thing on the abortion politicians are reading the script of which we provide them don't hold Donald Trump to a higher standard then you hold your pastor to if I have to hear from another P another Christian well you know Donald Trump's not as pro-life as me I say well has your pastor spoke out regularly against the slaughter of The Unborn well no no my pastor doesn't do politics oh so you want Donald Trump to speak out on holy matters when the person you tithe an offer to that you call your home Church won't even whisper about it got it man that's good well I think you dealt with the abortion issue in Donald Trump very well but it there's so many there's so many other issues Andrew if I may sure well I was just going to ask another thing that I've heard people comment on is will they think that the 2020 election was stolen and that the vote is rigged and so they just lose heart what difference does it as a Christian you I believe that cynicism and despair is a sin and we know this in the Book of Numbers which is called in the wilderness God despised when the people of Israel in the wilderness were despairing when they were complaining all the time there is no hope first of all as Christians we have to reject this fleshly idea from the Demonic that our action doesn't mean anything all of our actions should glorify God all everything we do should point up amen from what we eat to who we marry to how we raise our kids to where we go to church to how we how we educate our young people and so but let's talk about 2020 despite all the shenanigans everybody we fell 41,000 ballots short in Arizona in Wisconsin and Georgia and guess what there were millions of people who did not vote because they believed that it would not occur and the easiest way to make sure that your vote won't be counted is not vote that's right so that's why we have teamed up to make sure that people practice the most secure voting methods possible instead of putting your mail and ballot in the mail walk it right down to that county recorder's office if you guys want to vote in person then go vote in person there are secure ways to do it but people say but Charlie it's not 100% secure but that that is such a sloppy argument because I can 100% guarantee the Democrats will take over the country if none of us vote that's right and so the the that that kind of negativity and that cycle of cynicism is something that we as Christians are forbidden from engaging it I agree and uh David Barton also made a point that there are hundreds and hundreds of cities that have tightened the uh voter that's right thing so we are making Improvement in that a let me ask you about um the economy because I think everybody recognizes that inflation's way up and everything and I remember comma Harris when she was asked about the economy said that she inherited the worst economy in decades from Trump which in my estimation is a boldfaced lie how do you respond to that yeah I mean of course it is and so Le let's look at something that we as Christians should care about private property is a Christian virtue meaning the ability to own property the first ever real estate transaction you know this Andrew I'm not going to quiz Andrew on the Bible he'll know it was Abra Abraham buying the plot of land to bury his wife and himself in heon it's the first ever real estate deal in the Bible the idea of ownership of land is a Biblical idea a Workman is worth his wages we should want more Americans especially young people to be able to own property not have to rent for the rest of their life it is good for everybody amen it builds Equity it rejects cynicism it makes you more invest in your community it makes you more likely to develop a family we are becoming a nation of renters when Donald Trump was President you could buy a home earning $75,000 a year of combined family income now it requires $130,000 a year and it's near $150,000 a year in the Denver metro area it is nearly doubled in the last four years and why is that it's because kamla Harris decided to pump our are the economy with $6 trillion dollar of unnecessary government spending which then increases asset prices simple supply and demand this is why sand is cheap and diamonds are expensive when you have more of something it becomes worth less when you have less of something it becomes worth more and additionally which again is an issue I really want to emphasize here when you have 10 million new people come into your country and those people need a place to live it will raise the asset price as well so kamla Harris has allowed the largest invasion in American history to occur in a short period of time when people come in you guys see it in Aurora Colorado of trenda taking over apartment complexes that we are currently subsidizing and allow me to speak about this from a Christian perspective because I don't hear this often from pastors but um not well-educated and wokey pastors if I may will will fall for this immigration nonsense and you'll see this by the way with these just repulsive he gets us at advertisements that they run during the football games it's bad theology it's it's it's it's bad at its core well they'll say but Charlie Jesus wanted open borders now first of all there is no theological basis whatsoever what Jesus and the scriptures call for is to love the sorer to love the Foreigner however borders is an explicitly biblical idea in fact I know Donald Trump's favorite book of the Bible do you know this it's the book of Nehemiah cuz all about building the wall the entire book [Applause] awesome it's literally about building the wall of Israel so um the idea of sovereignty of Nations and let's remember God told us and showed us that he rebukes a One World Government the idea of sovereignty and borders came out of Genesis 11 when Nimrod wanted to build the city of Babel of a Oneness of the world to build a city upon himself and God scattered the people in all different lands and na ations and different languages because God wanted smaller micro communities of governance not the world economic Forum which of course is what KL is pushing us towards but let's get let's get to the inexcusable facts that every Pastor in America should be speaking about if I ask you hypothetical would a pastor be in error if he did not speak against slavery in this country say of course would a pastor be an error if a pastor not speak about how kids are being sold into sex slavery well news flash there are more people people being sold in slavery in this country right now on the southern border than any time in the last couple hundred years and the church is silent there are 320,000 kids that we know of that have gone missing many of whom are now teenage prostitutes and sex slaves for the cartel in the interior of the United States but the church is silent you see K Harris did this with a direct action when she decided to get rid of DNA testing on the border quickly here's how it works you show up on the border as a 13-year-old girl by the way you're raped an average of three times in that Voyage to get to the Border you are you are currently being used as a sex toy by the cartels all the way up till there the typical mode of operation under Donald Trump was something called DNA testing thanks to Modern technological breakthrough you do swabs saliva swabs of each individual you put it in and in 90 seconds you can have an affirmative or a negative DNA match so is the person with the minor actually the relative or is it somebody else super simple easy to use take 90 seconds you you don't have to send it out to Abbot Laboratories 90 seconds one of the first actions that KL Harris took with Joe Biden was to get rid of DNA testing so here's how it works they show up on the border trembling 13-year-old girl who obvious you know was just raped a couple times you could tell her head is down I've seen it myself you can go to Yuma to see it is looking down and a muscular 35-year-old pimp says I'm her dad and there is no DNA testing that occurs so instead they just say sign on the paperwork here's your Asylum date it's in three years of course it never comes and the girl is now a sex slave in the United States under Trump we do a DNA test be like you're lying that's not correct we're going to find out who her parents actually are because we're not going to co-sign to her becoming the worst thing that we could possibly tolerate however the church is uninterested in this exactly pastors are too interested in bigger buildings and more budgets and not in the fact that kids God's children are being sold as sex slaves in our own country this is not happening in Afghanistan this is not happening in some far off distant land this is on our turf this is in our own nation and I can't make the moral argument more clear than that if there's just one issue just vote to end modern day slavery that that's it but I just get at this is that many of these pastors either don't know this or they don't know the stakes of this I know we're over time or whatever but it's it's very I cannot drive this point home enough which is that don't judge the world for their failure if the church is silent we will be hold to a higher account it will go down this will go down to a similar but
