Back when he served in Congress, Sam Brownback had close ties to a variety of fringe Religious Right activists, even living with prayer warrior Lou Engle for several months at one point.
Since becoming Governor of Kansas, Brownback has continued this practice, declaring statewide Days of Restoration and showing up at prayer rallies that were overflowing with modern day prophets and apostles. And the trend continues, as next month Brownback will speak at an Awakening Freedom Tour in Lenexa, Kansas that is designed to encourage right-wing Christians to get involved in the culture wars and “cause a revolution” by mobilizing “freedom fighters” who will “take this country back”:
A Kansas-based ministry is hosting a series of events across the state focused on equipping Christian to get involved in a cultural battle.
Entitled the Awakening Freedom Tour, the first gathering will be held on Saturday, February 8, at Lenexa Baptist Church.
Donna Lippoldt, founder and director of Culture Shield Network - which is hosting the event - says the focus is to address the moral decline in the U.S. and confront the effort to remove God from the public dialogue.
Lippoldt, Donna”We need revival, we need a Great Awakening, but it is time to cause a revolution,” she says. “We need to get some freedom fighters up and going to take this country back.”
The inaugural event will feature speakers such as Neil Mammen, Governor Sam Brownback and Donna Lippoldt.
