Many of us recognize that evangelical leaders have been pushing left-wing priorities like open borders and climate change legislation, but what we don’t understand is why and how it is happening. Join us for Freedom First 2025 with Megan Basham—investigative journalist and author of Shepherds for Sale—where she exposes how these global elites infiltrate the church and how astroturf campaigns are designed to capture America’s most important voting block – Christians.
We will learn from Megan’s work how well-known church leaders sold out their influence to the secular left and how anti-Trump political groups infiltrated Christian ministries to try to capture evangelical voters.
What we are talking about here is orchestrated money campaigns designed to convince Christians that if they didn’t support open borders policies, that meant they weren’t loving their neighbor. This language makes a lot of us angry, and rightfully so!
Megan’s ultimate purpose is to confirm for the average evangelical in the pew that the uneasy feelings you may have been having (perhaps for some years now) that your pulpits and your institutions are being co-opted by political forces with explicitly secular progressive aims are justified.
At Tennessee Stands, we are committed to preserving conservative values through a biblical worldview. We believe that our rights come from God, not the government, and it is our responsibility to defend the truth and stand firm in our faith. We hope you will join us in that mission.
