Summary
Oregon is facing lawlessness, failing schools, sanctuary policies, and leadership that seems determined to push the state further into chaos. Today Heidi is joined by grassroots activist and Oregon gubernatorial candidate Dave Medina to talk about the spiritual battle behind politics and why Christians must stop sitting on the sidelines. The fight for the Pacific Northwest isn’t just political, it’s deeply spiritual.
