2024 Election Victories for Christians Engaged

Hello, Friends - 

With Election Day behind us, I want to share with you some key victories from Christians Engaged.

In the 2024 election cycle, we:

Mobilized 850,000 Christians nationwide through our proprietary method of tracking every election and opting Christians in to pray, vote and engage on an ongoing basis. 

Sent 12 million emails to Christians in the battleground states over the past 2 weeks, and aired radio ads in WI, AZ, PA, MI the final 3 days to motivate Christians to get to the polls.

Saw the youngest woman elected to the Arkansas State House, our own 27 year-old Alyssa Brown. Alyssa first got involved in politics as an intern at the Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs, and then connected with Christians Engaged online. Shortly after connecting with us, went on scholarship with us to our “Pray, Vote, and Engage” trip to Washington, DC in 2023. She then ran in an open seat for the legislature against a man who had served in county government for 3 decades because she discovered that “he did not have a biblical worldview” when she interviewed him about the possibility of her volunteering with him. In less than 2 1/2 months, she went through the Christians Engaged Salt and Light: How to Impact Your Local Communities class, raised $50,000, knocked on 3,000 doors, and won with 63% of the vote in the primary election. On Tuesday, she won in a landslide with 79% of the vote, becoming the youngest woman ever elected to the Arkansas State Legislature. 

We won a huge upset for the 5th Court of Appeals in Texas, as one of our key Christians Engaged supporters, Jessica Lewis won her seat as a Judge. Both Jessica and her husband Jordan are Christian attorneys, and Jordan was one of our first board members with Christians Engaged. After being involved with Christians Engaged for our first year, in 2020 Jordan decided to run for judge in Dallas County and asked Jessica to run as well. Although they weren't successful in that election, Jessica made it on national TV and gained major traction. In 2022, both Jessica and Jordan ran and lost again. In 2024, she was recruited to put her name on the ballot for the Court of Appeals, a higher court, and in the upset of this election cycle in Texas, she won! She is truly a Christian who is Engaged.

We are so grateful for these victories for Alyssa and Jessica, and for the impact that Christians made nationwide by voting for leaders who support our values. This impact would've never been felt without your partnership and financial support. As we look toward the days ahead, we know that we have only just begun the work of impacting our cities, states, and nation through our mission of prayer, voting, and engagement.

Thank you for showing your love of your neighbors and country through your involvement. Together, we will continue to impact America.
