In this video 0:00 Surge in Faith Engagement in 20254:52 Picking Up the Fallen Truth: Pastor Huizar's Call to Action38:27 Stand on the Word: A Journey Through Scripture for Spiritual Growth
Surge in Faith Engagement in 2025 0:00 Hello. I'm Tony Perkins, president of Family Research Council and host of Washington Watch. Thanks for tuning in. Every day, we offer a biblical perspective on the news as well as insightful interviews with elected0:11 leaders, newsmakers, and culture experts. We have a great program planned for you today, but first, get up to speed on the top headlines with Washington Stand's news brief.0:26 Welcome to the Washington Stand news brief. I'm Sarah Holliday with our final episode of 20 25. As we close the book on this year, we're diving into a remarkable story0:38 of spiritual renewal. 20 25 saw an unprecedented surge in faith engagement from packed pews to record breaking bible sales and app downloads. Amid0:50 global uncertainties, it seemed millions had turned or returned to the timeless truths of scripture. Let's break it down. First, church attendance rebounded this year1:02 like never before, especially among younger generations. According to data from the Barna Group, Gen z led the charge. It's worth noting that much of the surge came in1:13 response to the tragic assassination1:13 of Christian and conservative commentator, Charlie Even at1:28 Even at his memorial, the gospel was presented throughout the night. 1 such example came from his mentor, Frank Turek.1:36
1:48 rebelled against him to torture and kill him so he could place their punishment upon himself, and then by trusting in him, every 1 of us can be forgiven
2:01 and then given his righteousness. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the greatest story ever told, and it happens to be true.
2:10 For people all around the world, Kirk's assassination marked a turning point. No more hiding in the shadows. For others, it sparked a wave of soul searching. And these scenes were not just reflected in church
2:22 attendance, but also in bible sales. Industry tracker, Circana, reported over 18000000 Bibles sold in the US through November 20 25, marking an 11 percent
2:34 jump from 20 24. September alone, the month Kirk was killed, saw a massive 2400000.0 Bibles sold, which put 20 25 on track for the highest
2:46 number of Bible sales in history. Some 20 25 polls showed declining religious affiliation, but these sales revealed a counternarrative. Americans haven't abandoned faith
2:59 rather, perhaps, it's more accurate to say they're rediscovering its depth or at least significantly more curious than they were before. And if physical Bibles are surging, digital
3:10 ones are exploding, and not just in America. The YouVersion Bible app, the world's most popular scripture platform, hit a stunning milestone this fall. Over 1000000000 installs
3:22 across all devices. Engagement peaked at nearly 19000000 users opening the app in a single day on Easter Sunday. Early 20 25 set the tone with a record of almost
3:34 800000 downloads on January fifth alone and over 3000000 people jumping into new year's plans for the new year. The app's 20 25 verse of the year was Isaiah
3:46 41 10. So do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. It resonated globally with daily use spiking in Africa, Central Asia, and North America.
3:59 There was even a 33 percent increase in daily use in the Middle East region. As 20 25 draws to a close, this surge reminds us that no headline nor any hardship
4:11 can eclipse the light of Christ. From the Barna Insights to YouVersion's billion strong community, the message is clear. Faith isn't fading. It's flourishing. After all, Christ himself
4:22 promised that he would build his church and that not even the gates of hell would prevail against it. And with that, I'm Sarah Holliday finishing the year with this edition of the Washington Stand news
4:34 brief. On behalf of the Washington Stand, we look forward to being a part of your 20 26.
Picking Up the Fallen Truth: Pastor Huizar's Call to Action
4:53 From the heart of our nation's capital in Washington DC, bringing compelling interviews, insightful analysis, taking you beyond the headlines and sound bites into conversations with our nation's leaders and
5:04 newsmakers, all from a biblical worldview. Sitting in for Tony is today's host, Jody Heiss.
5:11 Good afternoon, and welcome to this special edition of Washington Watch. I'm Jody Heise, senior fellow here at the Family Research Council. An honor today to be filling in for Tony, and so glad
5:23 sincerely to have you joining us today. Alright. Well, 20 26 is literally just hours away now. So today, we want to bring you some special content from our most recent
5:35 Prevost Stand Summit that was held in Chino, California. If you're not aware, the pray vote stand summit is our annual event that draws Christian voters from all across America. It's a time of prayer
5:46 and inspiration and action. We deal with some powerful and very important issues like religious freedom, the the call for the church to engage our culture, the need to
5:58 stand for Israel, parental rights, chemical abortion, and just a host of issues. It's really an outstanding event, and we're so happy to be able to share some of that great
6:10 content with you today that came out of that summit. Also, with tomorrow being January first, we're gonna encourage you to join with us for 20 26 and 20
6:22 27 to join our 2 year Bible reading plan. Tony unpacked this on last Friday's program, which you can find on the website, by the way, tony perkins dot com. But if you missed it,
6:34 we'll we'll share part of his discussion with 2 FRC team members later in the program today. But I do wanna encourage you even now to sign up for that Bible reading plan. Just 10 or 15 minutes a day

7:45 especially with the 200 and fiftieth anniversary of America, The Family Research Council is standing for faith, family, and freedom now more than ever, and you have a few hours to double your impact
7:57 thanks to a challenge match. Double your gift. Text the word America to 67742 to find out how you can double your impact with us here at
8:09 FRC. Well, as I mentioned, this past October, we had our fifth annual Prevost Stand Summit, drawing thousands of Christians from all across America to Calvary Chapel in Chino
8:20 Hills, California this year. It was a powerful event. And among the speakers at the event was Armando Weizar. He's executive pastor at South Bay United Pentecostal Church in
8:32 California. In his address, pastor Armando talked about the truth crisis and the need for the church to pick up the truth which is being trampled in the streets. So
8:44 here's how Pastor Amato started his address.
8:47 I give glory to God for all of his goodness and all that he's done. Thank you for that warm welcome, and it's an honor to be here at Pray, Vote, Stan, and the president of Family Research Council,
8:59 my dear friend, amen, Pastor Tony Perkins, we honor him, and our dear friend, the host pastor of this church, Jack Hibbs. Thank you for opening up your doors, and I
9:11 think it's good to give honor to whom honor is due. Those who have spoken already, who have imparted already, and those that will impart the men and women at this great event, I know it's gonna be a
9:23 great, great time. The FRC, what a great organization, and that has never been afraid to speak truth into our culture. Thank you, all the staff that makes this possible.
9:39 I thank my church, amen. And I'm blessed to pastor the South Bay Pentecostal Church, a church that God has led my wife and I. My wife is here today, and, we are
9:51 blessed to be part of a church that's so diverse, growing congregation that reflects the beauty and the tapestry of our community. I give honor to
10:01 my Bishop, Bishop Art Hodges, who stood there in the gap, and helped with many others, amen, and defeated the tyranny that tried to close the church doors.
10:18 But the doors stay open, so that we can worship freely, without shame, without fear, without wrath, lifting up holy hands. And we're thankful that we can do
10:30 that. And so, we stand here. I stand here not only as a pastor, but I wear many hats in our community. I stand here serving in
10:42 our South Bay Clergy Alliance. I stand here as a city commissioner and active member in my community. And why do I mention this? I mention this because I've learned something critical.
10:53 That the gospel isn't just something that happens Sunday morning. It doesn't happen just in your midweek service. It doesn't happen just at your men's or women's fellowship or at your youth group
11:05 event. But it's an evangelism culture that happens every day of your life. It's not just something that happens during your worship
11:17 set, but it should be an overflow in our life and every sphere of our society including in the public square as it was mentioned in our talk earlier tonight.
11:29 And so as we look at the pitiful moment that has happened just in the past month, in the past years. And if we look back at our nation's history, we can look
11:41 back at the summer of 17 87, where the delegates gathered in Philadelphia to draft what would become the United States Constitution. They drafted that Constitution,
11:53 and they stood there for 4 exhausting months, and it was hot. And they stood in a warm room without air conditioning. Can you imagine that? Meeting for 6
12:05 hours a day, with tempers flaring and flying in that room so intensely that they wanted to meet each other in the back,
12:17 and give each other a piece of their mind. And there was clear and present danger happening in that room. See, the convention might dissolve, and the project was soon to be
12:29 abandoned, and the convention was at the brink of collapse, and the delegates were at each other's throats, and the entire project was about to fall apart. But an elder stood up. Thank God for
12:41 elders. 81 year old elder Benjamin Franklin stood up, and this is what he said. He said, I have lived, sir, a long time. And the longer I live, the more
12:53 convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, it is
13:04 probable that an empire can rise without his aid. And Benjamin Franklin, that they began every session with prayer. And church, our nation
13:17 was born when its founders recognized that they needed divine truth to guide them. And today, we gather in a nation that has torn the foundation
13:28 apart, and we have separated our governing documents for my divine source, Jesus Christ. We need truth now more than ever
13:40 to guide us. We need Jesus today, because without God on our side, the results can be catastrophic. And evangelism, as we just heard by
13:52 these great men, about individual souls. It's about restoring truth into our communities, into our cities, and into our nation. And with truth falls into the
14:04 streets, the
14:19 a
14:21 divine design for us to have a foundation of truth. The founders understood something profound. They didn't just create a system of government. They anchored it in divine truth. And if we look at the
14:33 declaration of independence, it says that we hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain
14:45 unalienable rights. Notice they didn't call these opinions or preferences. They weren't just novel ideas that they threw on Facebook, but they were truths. Self evident truths
14:56 from a creator. Not from a king, not from a parliament, not from a human conscience, from from God Himself, the Lord God Almighty, the King of
15:08 Kings, the Lord of Lords, the Great I Am, the El Shaddai, the Alpha and the Omega, the great I am Jesus Almighty God himself.
15:20 And the Constitution was never meant to be divorced from the declaration, but together they formed America's mission statement.
15:43 To which it's attached. And we're holding it aloft trying to interpret it apart from its companion, the declaration of independence. While the bird lies bleeding
15:55 unable to heal, let alone fly. And we've created such a bitter divide, a more perfect union, but yet it's anything but perfect today. We're
16:07 wielding our opinions uninformed of the foundations from which they came. And so I bring to you this devastating reality found in Isaiah chapter 59
16:18 verse 14, where it says, and judgment is turned away backward, and justice senteth afar off, for truth has fallen in the street and equity cannot enter and truth
16:30 has fallen in the street and when truth falls everything else collapses with it. And so there are symptoms in this truth crisis. And so we'll look at these symptoms together. And so first and
16:42 foremost, no 1 pleads for truth as Isaiah 59 verse 4 tells us. We need people to plead for the truth. The Bible says, none calleth for justice nor
16:53 pleadeth for truth. They trust in vanity and speak lies. They conceive mischief, bring forth iniquity. The Hebrew word for pleadeth means to contend,
17:13 more. And so we look around at some certain professions where we have godless lawyers who manipulate truth rather than seek it. We have godless politicians who spin truth
17:25 rather than speak it. We have godless media who shape truth rather than report it. And tragically, even some godless pulpits who avoid truth rather than
17:36 proclaim it. And so we need to be an example here tonight. Can someone say amen? Amen. Amen. And so voices that dare to plead for
17:48 truth are silenced,
18:05 And we must plead for truth in our schools, in our city councils, in our state legislators, and we can't be silent anymore.
18:15 That was pastor Amato Weizar of South Bay United Pentecostal Church. He was speaking at our 20 25 Pray Vote Stand Summit. You tuned in to Washington Watch in this special
18:27 edition. Thank you so much for joining us. Alright. If you, by the way, would like to see more of the the conference, you can get it, watch it at the Stand Firm app. Simply text the word
18:39 app to 6 7 7 4 2. Alright, after the break, we will continue more with pastor Armato's address. It is powerful, so stay with us. We'll be back in just a moment.
18:52 Hello. I'm Tony Perkins, and I wanna invite you to join me for Stand on the Word, a daily journey through the Bible, 10 to 15 minutes a day. That's all it takes. And in no time, you'll have finished the entire Bible. And
19:03 along the way, we'll learn how to apply God's truths to the world in which we live. As we're about to start a new year and as our nation is about to celebrate 250 years, there's never been
19:13 a better time for a fresh start
19:15 in the word of God. To join us, text bible to 6 7 7 4 2. That's bible to 6 7 7 4 2.
19:22 At Family Research Council, we believe religious freedom is a fundamental human right that all governments must protect. For years, Islamist militants in Nigeria have targeted Christians
19:34 and other religious minority groups with brutal violence. Since 2009, 52000 Christians have been slaughtered. A staggering 89 percent of Christian martyrs in the world today are
19:46 from Nigeria. The first Trump administration declared Nigeria
20:03 by the Biden administration. Following consistent calls from FRC president Tony Perkins and other religious leaders across the US, president Donald Trump has responded.
20:13 Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria. Thousands and thousands of Christians are being killed. I am hereby making Nigeria a country of particular concern.
20:26 This is a huge step forward for the protection of Christians in Nigeria as well as religious freedom across the world. While this opens the door for the US government to pressure Nigerian leaders to protect vulnerable
20:37 Christians, it is only the beginning. We must continue to pray diligently, work strategically, and stand firm for the protection of religious liberty across the globe.
20:51 What is God's role in government? What does the separation of church and state really mean? And how does morality shape a nation? President John Adams said our
21:03 constitution was made only for moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. Join Family Research Council for God in Government, a
21:15 powerful series that explores the connection between biblical principles and the American government, equipping you with truth to engage in today's most pressing debates. We'll uncover the foundations of
21:27 our nation's history and why it's relevant for today. Join us to defend God's plan for government because faith and freedom were never meant to be separate. You can view
21:39 the course at Prevost Stand dot o r g slash God in Government or on the Stand Firm app.
21:52 Thank you so much for joining us today. Good afternoon, and welcome back to Washington Watch. I am Jody Heise filling in today for Tony, and thanks for joining us. Alright. Today, we're broadcasting some
22:04 special content that took place at our 20 25 Pray, Vote, Stand Summit. At the conclusion of the last segment, pastor Amato Weizar of the South Bay United
22:15 Pentecostal Church was unpacking the symptoms we can see in today's truth crisis. He was comparing it to what's recorded in Isaiah chapter 59.
22:27 Well, we wanna continue with pastor Armato. And in this next part, he'll discuss the second symptom that we need to be aware of in this truth crisis. So here's pastor Armato.
22:38 The next symptom is the way of peace that's unknown. Isaiah 59 verse 8 says, the way of peace, they know There's no joy in their They have made them crooked paths and whosoever go in therein shall
22:50 not know And there's this There's no truth, no peace. And peace is built on the of truth. And if we look at our nation today, cities are burning while
23:01 leaders call it peaceful. Pro are being over social media and and and and and and churches are splitting over cultural
23:13 narratives instead of biblical truths and mental health crisis as people can't find solid ground in the days that we're living in. And they have made themselves
23:25 crooked paths path becomes 1 that people
23:37 follow. And the culture of evangelism must
23:55 forms our that seems far off and it's Isaiah 59 versus the
24:07 it says, like bears and
24:28 hungry. They want it. They're searching, they're mourning like doves, depressed and hopeless. And today, people are looking for this things, but they're looking it in the wrong places. They're
24:40 looking it in government programs, social movements, and technology, and self help, philosophies, actually save.
24:52 The Bible says that he is the way, the truth, and the life. No 1 cometh but by him. Hallelujah.
25:06 Political engagement is important, but it's not our salvation. We're pointing people to Jesus, the author and the finisher
25:21 deliver, the Messiah, the 1 who can give me hope when there is no hope. The light in the middle of darkness. Amen. He's my healer. He's the living water.
25:33 The next symptom are sins that testify against us. Isaiah 59 verse 12. For our transgressions are multiplied before thee and our sins testify against us. For our transgressions are
25:45 with us and our iniquities. We know them. This is America today. We know killing babies are it's wrong, but we call it health and marriage is between a man and
25:57 a woman, but we begin to we know children need protection, but we still sexualize No. Destroy, but we embrace
26:09 them anyway. That's the America we know today. And our sins are testifying.
26:23 And the prophetic voice of the church is needed now, more than ever, We need men. We need men to stand.
26:35 We need men. Do I need to say
26:37 it again? We need men.
26:39 We need men to stand and proclaim the truth.
26:44 We need men to be men. We need men to be men
26:56 to teach young men to be men. And we can't let others
27:09 teach our boys how to be men. We can't let Facebook and apps and Instagram and TikTok
27:21 and all these other things teach them. We can't let And we need the women to be women. We
27:32 need the women to be women.
27:33 We need the women to be men. We need the women
27:33 to be men. We need the women to be men. We need the women to be men. We need the women to be men. We need the women
27:33 to be men. And we need the women to eat women.
27:47 You thought I let you off the hook? Can someone say amen? Because our sins are testifying against us.
27:59 We got young men wanting to play girls sports. We've got sins testifying against us. Truth has fallen in the streets. Isaiah 5nine 14. And judgment is
28:11 turned away backwards, and justice is standing afar off, and truth has fallen in the street, and equity cannot answer. This is the climactic statement. Truth hasn't just been questioned or doubted. It's fallen in the
28:21 street, and the image is powerful, and truth lies wounded in the public square, and people are stepping over it. And they're they're ignoring it. They're kicking it. They're they're pretending like they don't see it.
28:32 They're acting like it's not even there. It's there, but I don't even see it. I'm not even looking at it. No 1 wants to help bring it up. Falls in the street, judgement is reversed.
28:44 Justice can't get close. Equity is locked out. And this is the cancel culture we live in. Truth hasn't just fallen. It's being trampled on by those who benefit from its absence.
28:56 And someone has to stop stepping over truth. Someone has to pick it up today. Someone has to dust it off and hold it high. Someone has to say, I'm gonna pick up the truth. Will it be
29:08 your church? Will it be your youth group? Will it be your men's ministry? Will it be your women's ministry? Will it be this movement? Who will pick up the truth tonight?
29:19 That was pastor Amato Weizar of the South Bay United Pentecostal Church. He was speaking at our 20 25 Prevost Stand Summit. You're tuning in to Washington Watch. Today, we're
29:31 broadcasting some very special content from that summit, which took place back in October at the Calvary Chapel in Chino Hills, California. Alright. After the break, we'll share the
29:43 conclusion of Pastor Armato's address, so don't go anywhere, we'll be back.
29:52 For over 4000 years, the Jewish people have had legal, historical, and biblical ties to the land of Israel, especially the heartland of Israel, Judea and Samaria, which much of the world still calls the West Bank.
30:05 To Israelis, Judea and Samaria is far more than a name. It's the center of their ancestral homeland where nearly 80 percent of the Bible's events took place. Abraham purchased property in Hebron, Jacob in
30:17 Shechem. Joshua made an altar on Mount Ebal and led the Israelites into a covenant before God. On Mount Gerizim, overlooking Shechem, Jesus talked to the Samaritan woman at the well about worshiping neither on Mount
30:29 Gerizim nor in Jerusalem, but in spirit and in truth. Judea and Samaria is nearly a quarter of Israel's current land mass, not a small strip of land on the Jordan River, but a
30:40 vital and strategic part of the nation's identity. The October seventh massacre launched from Gaza shattered the illusion that giving away territory brings peace. Gaza, which was
30:52 once seen as the cornerstone of a 2 state solution, became a launchpad for terror. Today, only 21 percent of Israelis support a Palestinian state. Trust in a 2 state solution
31:04 has all but collapsed. The Middle East is changing. Iran's grip is weakening. New alliances are forming. But western countries and some US officials still chase the mirage of a 2 state solution.
31:16 History speaks clearly. The 2005 Gaza withdrawal, backed by the US, led not to peace, but to a terrorist regime. Judea and Samaria are 24 times larger than Gaza,
31:28 deeply woven into Israel's geographic and spiritual fabric. To surrender them would not bring peace. It would invite conflict and existential danger. Family Research Council stands with Israel's
31:40 rightful claim to sovereignty. It's time for America to do the same for history, for justice, and for lasting security in the Middle East.
31:54 Hope you're having a great day. Welcome back to Washington Watch. I'm Jody Heiss filling in today for Tony. Thanks to have, thanks for joining us. Glad to have you. Alright. Today, we're broadcasting some content from
32:05 our pray vote stand summit that took place in October of last year. And in this segment, we're gonna go to the conclusion of the address delivered by pastor Amato Weizar, the South Bay United
32:17 Pentecostal Church in California.
32:19 So now it was time to get practical. We can talk about the culture of evangelism beyond over the church walls
32:31 into the culture at law. I learned this lesson personally. For years, I was content to preach just on Sundays, to do hospital visits, and during the week, and to stay in my lane. But God began to put a burden in
32:42 my heart to go answer to the drag queens, and say, not in my city, not in my
32:54 house, not
32:57 in my library.
33:00 And I was appointed by my mayor as a city commissioner, as the only pastor. Thank you, Jesus.
33:13 So I wasn't just preaching about policy, but now I'm helping to make it in the city of Chula Vista. And you know what I discovered? The table was set, but the
33:24 righteous righteous people weren't sitting in it. Decisions are being made about our schools, our streets, our families, and followers of Jesus are absent from the conversation.
33:36 You gotta get involved. Let me break it down to you. You gotta get involved. You need personal engagement. You gotta live the truth where
33:48 you are. Every 1 of you have influence. I know some of you don't think you do because you only have a few friends on Facebook. But if you want, I can be your friend.
34:03 You have influence at your workplace, your neighborhood. Everyone is a neighborhood watch program, because I see you. Every 1 of my neighbors sees me. They're all part of the neighborhood
34:15 watch. They're all part of the neighborhood watch. At your school, your social circles, you don't need a title to be salt and light. You are salt and
34:27 light. You don't need a pulpit,
34:55 Yeah. The Bible says in Proverbs 23, 23, by the truth, and in a market where lies are free and truth costs everything. By the In a market where lies are free and truth costs everything, buy the truth anyway. It might
35:06 cost you popularity. It might cost you comfort, but buy it anyway. Mobilize your congregation. Pastors, I encourage you to mobilize your congregation. We need to move
35:17 beyond don't mix church and state. That phrase isn't even in the constitution. What the first amendment guarantees is that the state will establish a religion. It says nothing about
35:29 keeping religion out of the state. Tangibly.
35:41 And when we love our neighbors tangibly, they will listen to our message credibly. And so when we have our seat at the table, we can have a message in the school
35:53 boards, the city councils, the county commissions, the planning boards, and be part of every level of government. And so it's not just our civic
36:05 duty. It's not just patriotism. It's kingdom assignment. And Romans 13 tells us that the governing authorities are established by God. And Matthew 5 tells us that
36:17 we're salt and light. And second Chronicles 7 14 tells us, if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face,
36:29 and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and forgive their sin and heal their land. Notice he says, my people, not the government, not the unbelievers, not
