Evangelicals typically support leaders in elected positions, citing biblical backing. However, Trump has enjoyed strong evangelical support since before he attained the presidency.

Eighty-one percent of self-described white, born-again or evangelical Christians voted for Trump in 2016, according to Pew.

The book will also offer a defense for evangelicals from critics who argue that Christians compromise their values by supporting Trump, according to the report.

Reed's organization is backing a voter mobilization effort "three times the level of what we did in 2016" supporting Trump in the upcoming election, he told The Washington Times.
