For months, North Carolina’s radically Christian nationalist Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson has traveled around the state, promoting his extremist views in churches in an effort to convince right-wing Christians to become more politically engaged.
Many of these speeches have been organized by the American Renewal Project, an organization run by Christian nationalist political operative David Lane, who was among the first to begin mobilizing the Christian right in support of Donald Trump in 2016.

As Lane recently explained, “the aim and purpose” of such gatherings is “to recruit pastors and spiritual leaders to run for local office—city council, school board, county commissioner, parks and recreation, etc.—in 2022, 2024, 2026 and thereafter, in an attempt to neutralize and overcome the assault by cultural Marxism.”
Late last month, Lane participated in a World Prayer Network livestream where he explained how he has been working closely with Robinson to mobilize pastors in an effort to take down “the false god of secularism ” and ensure that their Christian nationalist values “reign supreme” throughout the state.
