When Christians Vote, We WIN with Dr. George Barna

As many as 104 million people of faith, including 32 million self-identified Christians who regularly attend church, are unlikely to vote in the upcoming 2024 presidential election on Nov. 5 mainly due to lack of interest, research from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University shows. Today, the author of this new study, Dr. George Barna joins me to discuss why he believes that “the 32 million Christians sitting in the pews each week who refuse to vote are a game changer. It’s low hanging fruit for pastors as they try to motivate those congregants to carry out their civic duty and honor God through their influence for things that matter in our culture.”
