MTM - Interview with Mark Lynch

Send us Fan MailLindsey Graham gets booed in his own backyard and a challenger steps forward with a very different pitch. We sit down with Mark Lynch, a Greenville business owner, church deacon, and longtime grassroots organiser, to hear why he’s running for the US Senate in South Carolina and why he thinks the upstate is ready to replace a career incumbent. Along the way, we talk candidly about faith, family, and the cost of standing in the fire once national money and attack ads show up.We dig into the issue that matters most to us: pro life conviction with equal protection under the law. Mark lays out why he believes life begins at conception, why “15 weeks” still leaves room for injustice, and why laws should protect the unborn the same way they protect the born. We also wrestle with endorsements, asking how major pro life organisations can support candidates who accept later abortion limits. If you care about pro life legislation, Christian conservative politics, or how values translate into votes, this part will challenge you.Then we shift to the mechanics of power: grassroots organising, prayer teams, Trump’s endorsement decisions, and why a constitutional voting record matters more than campaign branding. Mark also responds to drug related smear ads by clarifying his stance on controlled substances and sharing a personal addiction recovery testimony that reframes his past as redemption rather than scandal. We close with a practical push for South Carolina’s open primary, how to help, and where listeners can get involved.Subscribe for more conversations at the intersection of faith, culture, and public life, share this with a friend in South Carolina, and leave a review so more people can find the show.
