Lance Wallnau's revival gatherings for Trump are 'the most targeted and tactical voter mobilization effort by Christian nationalists ever,' one expert said.

Lance Wallnau, a firebrand leader of the nation's growing grassroots evangelical movement, says it initially took some convincing to persuade evangelical Christians to recognize former President Donald Trump as divinely chosen to navigate these chaotic times.

'If Trump wins, then that becomes a part of the impetus that Donald Trump can say, 'I don't just have a democratic mandate, I have a divine mandate to change the country in accordance with the biblical values that these folks claim to have,'' says Taylor. Trump's relationship with the evangelical community goes back to his first race for the White House in 2015, when Paula White-Cain, a leading charismatic Christian figure, became one of his top religious advisers.
