BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey took the stage at the Turning Point USA conference and delivered a bold speech to thousands of attendees on Saturday.
Stuckey, who helms the hit Christian podcast “Relatable,” challenged societal notions about the conservative movement and the Christian’s role in politics.
“Truth divides. It’s not always a bad thing,” she said.
While emphasizing the importance of truth over unity, Stuckey argued that progressivism sets out to destroy Western civilization, the church, and the family — regardless of method — while conservatism seeks to build something together.
“On the right, on the conservative side, we are trying to build something,” she explained. “And when you’re building something, you have to agree on a lot. You have to agree on the materials used, the tools being used to build, and most importantly, you have to agree on a foundation.”
Stuckey also noted that Christians must participate in politics as an expression of their faith. She stated: “Politics affects policy. Policy affects people. People are made in the image of God. People matter to God, and therefore they matter to us.”
“And so Christians don’t have an option, nor should we want the option not to be political,” she added. “That doesn’t mean that politics is the primary way or the only way that we love our neighbor, but it is a way to love our neighbor.”
She went on to say that the job of Christians is to pull people to their side and not compromise on their principles.
Vice President JD Vance and rap artist Nicki Minaj were among the more prominent speakers at the Turning Point USA conference that lasted until Sunday.
