Jonathan Saenz, President & Attorney for Texas Values, released the following statement:
“Everything’s bigger in Texas and so is Texas Faith Fest this year, featuring Texas Governor Greg Abbott, David Barton, Abby Johnson, and Riley Gaines on the values and issues of faith, family, freedom, and pro-life. The assassination of Charlie Kirk was a heartbreaking attack on these Texas values, reminding us that we cannot be silent. Texas Faith Fest, I promise, will educate, motivate, and activate you at one of the highest levels you could ever experience at such an event.”
In 2021, Governor Greg Abbott spoke at Texas Faith Fest. Prior to speaking, Gov. Abbott did a bill signing for an historic pro-life bill while at the event.
In addition to Governor Greg Abbott in previous years, Texas Faith Fest speakers have included U.S. Senator Ted Cruz, United States Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick, and Michael Knowles, Host of the Michael Knowles Show on The Daily Wire.
