"The God of Christianity is a God of freedom, of individual liberty, of choice and of consequence. And I think that is something this country really needs to be reminded of. Christians are loving people, not judgmental people, but there is right and wrong. We are a country of law and order, and there are consequences for actions, and we must all live peaceably in our own faith under the Constitution." -Heidi Cruz

Heidi Cruz appeared Tuesday afternoon on The Vince Coakley Radio Program, a weekday show on WYRD-FM "Word 106.3" in Greenville, South Carolina.

Although the station is standard conservative talk radio, Coakley is an ordained minister who frequently talks about matters of faith on his show.

His official biography reads: "Vince is a voice for personal, spiritual and political freedom. His listeners often refer to him as 'a breath of fresh air.' Vince's primary passion is God's glory. As a minister of the Gospel, he works in partnership with other leaders to help Believers live as healthy functioning priests in the Body of Christ."

So during Tuesday's interview, the topic turned to the decision-making process that led to Ted Cruz deciding to run. She admitted it was initially a difficult decision for her, but ultimately, she realized that if she were not married to him, she would want him to be running for president of the United States.

"This country is in crisis," she said. "And [Ted Cruz] has an incredible talent that can bring us out of this crisis. We are in a crisis economically, constitutionally, and in terms of our foreign affairs, we are in a crisis."

Heidi Cruz's discussion then turned to her husband's own Christian faith, and his "unparalleled legal career" in defending those values. She said Ted Cruz is "unwavering" and "unflappable" at a time when the country is at a cultural crossroads.

"We can be in this race to show this country the face of the God we serve, this Christian God that we serve is the foundation of our country," she said. "Our country was built on Judeo-Christian values."

At that moment, liberal secularist minds around the country were completely blown. Several liberal media outlets focused on only that short part of the interview to attack not only the Cruzes, but Christians in general.

Mediaite reported: "Heidi Cruz Bizarrely Rants About How Ted Will Show America 'The Face of God.'"

Right Wing Watch, another anti-Christian outlet, took it as another opportunity to mock anyone who suggests leaders are anointed by God.

But that wasn't all Heidi Cruz had to say about her family's faith. She noted that while the United States is a "nation of freedom of religion," that freedom also comes with responsibility.

"The God of Christianity is a God of freedom, of individual liberty, of choice and of consequence," she said. "And I think that is something this country really needs to be reminded of. Christians are loving people, not judgmental people, but there is right and wrong. We are a country of law and order, and there are consequences for actions, and we must all live peaceably in our own faith under the Constitution. Ted is uniquely able to deliver on that combination of the..."
