  • The WallBuilders Show - Why Christians Have A Moral Responsibility To Vote - with Dr. Everett Piper

    Election Day pressure is real, but we’re not letting polls, headlines, or cynicism steal our responsibility. We talk straight about why your vote still matters even when the media tries to “black pill” people into staying home, and why Christians cannot outsource civic engagement to someone else. If you’ve ever thought, “It’s rigged,” “My vote won’t count,” or “The candidates aren’t perfect,” this conversation meets that hesitation head-on with clarity and urgency.

    We’re joined by Dr. Everett Piper to lay out the case that voting is more than a civic right. It’s a moral responsibility. He breaks down the numbers behind the Christian voting gap, explains how tens of millions of believers sit out elections, and connects the stakes to everyday realities: protecting life, defending women and children, resisting cultural indoctrination, and maintaining safe communities. We also dig into the “separation of church and state” myth, going back to Thomas Jefferson’s Danbury Baptists letter and the founding era mindset that faith belongs in the public square, not locked inside a building.

    Then we bring it home with a principle that keeps us steady no matter what the returns look like tonight: duty is ours, results are God’s. That means we don’t quit if we lose, and we don’t coast if we win. We also touch on election integrity reforms and why transparent, timely results build public trust.

    If this helped you think clearly, subscribe, share the episode with a friend who feels discouraged, and leave a review so more people can find it. What’s the biggest obstacle you see keeping Christians from voting?
