What are the different types of churches in America?

Charlie Kirk 1:57
to be better prepared to be able to speak about liberty, speak about God's truth, both in your church and in your community. And if we look at the American church right now, there are three types of churches. You're going to hear from Lucas Miles here in a second. There are true churches. You're sitting in a true church right now. Free Chapel Church is a true church. I hope most of you are running true churches right now. Here's the test of whether or not you're a true church. Did you, after the repeal of Roe versus Wade, host a celebration prayer service afterwards? Or did you kind of just say, yeah, a thing happened in the news this last week? Anyway, in other events, a true church is one that says, thank you, God, for your providence for helping save this country and give us a reprieve. But most importantly, a true church outside of those are ones that say, I know I might lose some people and they might have some blessed subtraction during the sermon. But I first and foremost honor the Lord when I deliver my sermon.

How can pastors lead a true church instead of a trembling church?

Charlie Kirk 3:06
And I don't care if I might lose five or 10% of tithes or offerings. A true church is one that looks at the word of God and says, I am going to deliver it courageously and unapologetically, regardless of the cost. And I know almost all of you are true churches. The second category are the trembling churches. They know what is true, but they shake like a leaf whenever they have to say anything too controversial. Now, maybe some people here might fall in that category, and that is okay. Our hope is that actually through hearing these speakers and hearing the trainings, you'll be motivated to go from a trembling posture to a true posture and speaking out and saying, that you're going to speak out on the top cultural and major societal issues of the day. The issue for the trembling pastor, and let's be honest, the vast majority of American churches are in the trembling category. They know what is biblical. They privately will tell you what is biblical, but publicly it goes through a filter.
Charlie Kirk 4:12
Publicly it goes through a lens that isn't always as pure and as clear as the scriptures, right? For example, they know that the scriptures say very clearly that life begins at conception, that abortion is wrong. But when they get on stage, it's not always as clear. It's a little bit wishy-washy. Or it's, well, we don't do politics around here, folks, and we just do the gospel.
