Episode: Warning To the Church - Here's What Is Coming After Trump!

Host: Dr. Lance Wallnau
Guest: Mario Murillo
Date: March 16, 2026

Episode Overview

In this gripping episode, Dr. Lance Wallnau sits down with evangelist Mario Murillo to issue a prophetic and practical warning to the American church about the era that will follow Donald Trump. They discuss the crucial spiritual crossroads facing the nation; the unprecedented opportunities—and dangers—for believers; the explosive revival among America’s youth; and the urgent responsibilities of church leaders and laypeople alike. The conversation blends current events, revival testimonies, warnings, encouragement, and practical steps for churches to seize this kairos (“opportune”) moment.

Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. What Happens to the Church After Trump? (00:00–06:23)

• The Church’s Reliance on Trump: Wallnau quotes Mario Murillo’s article about the church possibly losing its “protector” once Trump is out of office. “Even the pastors who despise him admit the church will lose protection.” – (03:09)
• Fears of Persecution: Concerns over political retribution from the left post-Trump, referencing statements from Susan Rice and others about holding Trump supporters “accountable.”
• Church Distraction & Complacency: The momentum of revival has given way to distractions: news cycles, scandals, and fringe topics. “What’s mesmerizing? …The endless scandals of failed charismatic preachers… they’re drinking more from Bill Maher than the Word of God.” – Wallnau (05:01)
• The “Christian Nationalist” Label: Both Wallnau and Murillo express that, regardless of individual stance on Trump, Christians are broadly rejected by secular progressives.

2. Frontline Revival Testimony from California (06:23–09:08)

• San Bernardino Tent Crusade: Murillo describes unprecedented revival: “We went to the second poorest county in California…thousands showed up…4,000 seats were not enough…primarily 30 years old and younger.” – Murillo (06:48–07:16)
• Miracles and Conversions: Visible miracles (e.g., a man leaving a wheelchair), and an outpouring of young people. “We had a thousand people come forward…and used every last one of our workers up.”
• Reproducibility: Murillo believes “this will be repeated in any American city right now if you’ll give an altar call… stop trying to entertain the apathetic.”

3. The Historical Moment and Harvest Analogy (09:17–14:29)

• Three American Factions:
  • Christian conservatives/MAGA
  • The Institutional Left
  • The “vast unsettled majority” ready for harvest
• Lessons from the Jesus Movement: America’s crises in the ‘60s led to revival; the current moment parallels that time. “Not since the Jesus movement have we seen anything like this.” – Murillo (08:52)
• Imminent Opportunity: Requests for tent crusades outpace available resources. “Everywhere we go, our one problem is shortage of Bibles, workers, prayer.” – Murillo (12:30)
• Baptismal Testimonies: Churches across regions joined together, and hundreds were baptized in a single night. “They set up 10 separate baptismal pools inside the church…running like crazy trying to get everyone baptized.” – Murillo (13:20)

4. Supernatural Encounters at Tent Meetings (16:15–19:35)

• Miraculous Healings: Excerpts of tent meetings broadcast on the show, with public healings and confessions of faith. “This man was literally unable to stand on his own power and is standing and walking because greater is he who is in us…” – Murillo (16:28)
• Atmosphere of Unity and Worship: “It was unnecessary to give a long treatise because the people were there. They were already ready…It defies description.” – Murillo (18:50)

5. Scaling Revival and Strategy for Church Leaders (19:35–24:36)

• Challenge of Scalability: 72 cities have invited Murillo’s team but there aren’t enough leaders or staff.
• Call to Action: Murillo proposes a national gathering of thousands of pastors to impart training and impart a spirit for soul winning. “We have got to go and get the harvest. And I, for one, I’m going to do it. I don’t care who goes with me…” – Murillo (23:20)
• Vision for Major Cities: Plans for crusades in Miami, Albany, and more.

6. Testimonies of Transformation (24:36–27:10)

• Personal Redemption Stories: Testimony from a man set free from 40 years of drug addiction; public water baptisms with families present.
• The Role of The Way World Outreach: Key church partner spearheading radical engagement with the poor and marginalized.

7. Practical Examples: Community Outreach (27:10–31:46)

• The Story of Marco Garcia: Formerly successful auto salesman who left business to serve San Bernardino’s hardest hit communities—door-to-door ministry, practical aid, and evangelism. “Sometimes maybe the harvest doesn’t come to you, you got to go to it.” – Wallnau (31:27)

8. Distinctives of the Current Revival vs. the Jesus Movement (32:28–35:47)

• A New Generation of Prophets: “The next revival will be young people with a prophetic edge…Not the exotic kind, but young people with a prophetic edge.” – Murillo (33:18)
• Spirit-Filled Movement: Emphasis on the baptism in the Holy Spirit as the defining characteristic of the current “wave.”

9. The Multicultural, Apostolic Model (35:47–37:27)

• Kingdom Diversity: Wallnau foresees diverse evangelism teams—a model impossible to caricature as “white Christian nationalism.” “That’s real diversity, equity and inclusion.” – Wallnau (36:34)
• Trump’s Rededication of America: Anticipation of a May 17, 2026 national “rededication” event; challenge to the church to act on this moment.

Tone and Style

The conversation is direct, passionate, often urgent, and marked by prophetic fervor.

Wallnau weaves humor, rhetorical questions, and analogies throughout; Murillo’s voice is earnest, both challenging and deeply encouraging.

Summary

This episode serves as a wake-up call for the church in America: the opportunity for revival is now—but the window could close post-Trump, and passive Christianity will not survive the coming challenges. The harvest is plentiful, especially among the young, the marginalized, and the broken—but workers and leaders must rise to the moment with unity, boldness, and supernatural empowerment. The episode challenges listeners to recognize the times, act decisively, and become active participants in America’s spiritual future.
