About Us
About Us
The Turnaround is a united movement of Pastors and Leaders of Faith in Oklahoma, calling on the nation to return to God through prayer, repentance, and action. In this critical hour, we stand together to rebuild America's spiritual foundation and reclaim our identity as One Nation Under God. Again.
The Vision
The Turnaround envisions a nation where faith, integrity, and godly values are restored as the foundation of our society. Through the power of prayer and collective action, we aim to influence our communities, strengthen our families, and secure a future of hope and righteousness for generations to come. Inspired by Nehemiah’s example, we seek to rebuild our nation's spiritual foundation, leading a movement of repentance and renewal that will stand as a testament to God’s enduring love and mercy.
The Mission
To unite Believers in fervent prayer and repentance, guiding our nation back to God and rebuilding our spiritual foundation as One Nation Under God. Again.
The Goal
1. Launch 52 Days of Prayer: Mobilize Believers across Oklahoma and the nation to engage in daily prayer from September 14 to November 4, seeking divine intervention for our governance, communities, culture, businesses, infrastructure, families, and children.
2. Rebuild America's Spiritual Border: Lead a movement to restore our nation’s foundation of faith, knowledge, and trust in God, following the example of Nehemiah in rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem in 52 days.
3. Guide to Repentance: Lead your state to make the Turnaround Declaration. Download a shareable copy here and insert the name of your state, rally pastors and leaders and ask your Governor or state legislature to declare The 7-14 Turnaround.
4. Strengthen the Future through the Next Generation: Focus on nurturing and protecting children, teaching them the fear of the Lord, and preparing them to be future leaders who uphold godly values.
5. Stand United Against Spiritual Apathy: Declare war against the forces of passivity, pride, and cold-heartedness within ourselves, committing to a life of humility, prayer, and devotion to Jesus Christ.
