How could the 2024 election reshape America's identity? Join us for a deeply insightful discussion on "The Intersection of Faith and Culture" as we confront one of the most critical elections in modern American history. With candidates openly endorsing communistic, socialistic, and Marxist principles, the stakes have never been higher for our nation. We delve into historical precedents where past presidents uniformly opposed such ideologies, and why today's political landscape demands an unprecedented turnout from active churchgoers. We provide crucial data from a recent George Barna poll, emphasizing the need for the faith community to rally and uphold pro-liberty and anti-woke values to influence the election outcome. We're also thrilled to welcome Steve Deace, a leading political analyst known for his intellectual honesty, to explore the unpredictable terrain of the 2024 election. We dissect the iron laws of American politics, the formidable Democrat ballot harvesting operations, and what Republicans must do to improve their get-out-the-vote strategies. From the critical states like Arizona, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, we analyze the path to securing 270 electoral votes. Through grassroots efforts and strategic voter mobilization, we underscore the importance of each party presenting a compelling vision for the future. This is a conversation you won't want to miss.
