Democrat candidate Sarah Trone Garriott, a minister and state legislator running for a U.S. House seat in Iowa, contributed to a “resistance preaching guide” that encouraged faith leaders to combat President Trump, Fox News reports.
Trone Garriott was behind a chapter in a 2018 collection titled, “Preaching as Resistance: Voices of Hope, Justice, and Solidarity.” Her chapter, called “The Gospel of Resistance,” was a sermon she delivered following the 2016 election. Her sermon aimed to encourage the audience in the aftermath of Trump’s victory.

The report notes that she has also helped marry a Satanist couple.
“The Wicked Witch of Woke strikes again and admits what we all knew. She views the pulpit as a political weapon to advance her radical agenda,” RNC spokesman Zach Kraft said in a statement to the outlet. “There isn’t a far-left cause Sarah Trone Garriott hasn’t claimed to have found in the Bible and attempted to force on Iowans.”
Trone Garriott has also told the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago that she “invite[s] religious leaders from my community to write prayers that I share on the Senate floor.”
“And then I’ll invite [the contributors] to be there, so that I can acknowledge them and say a little bit about who’s providing the prayers. And it’s a pretty diverse community,” she said. “I’ve offered prayers for my Muslim neighbors and Jewish and Sikh and Hindu and atheists and the whole spectrum of Christianity. I think it’s important to remind my colleagues that this is Iowa.”
She further noted that “[p]olitics is 90% vibes.”
In May, a 2021 video resurfaced of Trone Garriott reciting a Muslim prayer on the Iowa Senate floor.
