    The WallBuilders Show - A Midterm Convention Wake-Up Call - with Chad Connelly

    A midterm election can be won or lost long before Election Day, and we’re feeling that pressure from the floor of a first-ever midterm Republican convention in Dallas Fort Worth. We talk about why motivation can sag when a party gets complacent, why post-primary infighting lingers in key states, and why national polls can scare you into either panic or passivity. Chad Connelly joins us to share what he’s seeing on the ground through Faith Wins: pastors meeting with candidates, congregations waking up to the stakes, and real conversations about socialism, cultural issues, and the moral direction of the country. We also wrestle with the leadership gap many voters feel, including the sense that some elected officials used to get “wake up” texts from influential voices like Charlie Kirk and now the responsibility shifts to everyday citizens, churches, and grassroots organizations. We dig into what a convention like this can actually produce when the mainstream media won’t carry it: tight policy one-liners, targeted “boutique” messages for specific districts, and shareable clips that regular people can spread faster than any campaign ad buy. The bottom line is simple: Christians are often the margin in close races, and turnout changes outcomes.

    The WallBuilders Show - Why The GOP Is Holding A Midterm Convention

    A midterm convention for Republicans has basically never happened, so when the RNC sets one in Dallas and schedules it right against NFL opening games, the obvious question is: why do it at all? We walk through what the cameras might miss, including why limited national TV coverage may be less of a problem and more of a clue. If you’re expecting a classic convention with one big theme, you’re going to be surprised by what this format signals about modern campaigning. We break down the strategy behind 109 speakers, dozens of rapid-fire topics, and a schedule that feels more like a content studio than a prime-time broadcast. The goal looks like building a massive library of short, reusable sound bites that can be targeted into battleground House and Senate races based on the issues voters actually care about, from tax relief and healthcare affordability to election integrity and border security. We also talk candidly about the convention’s fundraising engine and why raising money fast can matter as campaigns try to cut through noise and motivate turnout. Then we zoom out to the bigger question of how Christians should evaluate candidates in a heated culture moment. We challenge the “he seems nice” standard and focus on policy outcomes, moral clarity, and stewardship at the ballot box. We close with a practical reminder that protects your vote: check your voter registration and keep your information current to avoid a provisional ballot and extra handling. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show and get equipped—what do you think the RNC’s real endgame is here? Support the show
