Michael Tait, the frontman for the enormously popular Newsboys, has officially endorsed Texas Sen. Ted Cruz for president, citing the GOP hopeful’s principles, saying that, as an African-American, he supports him “100 percent.”
Tait, who is an alumnus of Liberty University, told Fox News columnist Todd Starnes that when he saw the senator launch his campaign from the university in March of last year, that he saw Cruz’s “drive” and “hunger” for “solid principles.”
“I saw him, his family, the way he talked to people in person. I saw his drive, his hunger for solid principles, solid ideas going forward in our country that, even as an African-American, if you want to get really technical about it, I support 100 percent,” Tait told Starnes.
Tait went on to share some advice for fellow Christians who will be entering the voting booth.
“People of faith should vote for a man they believe in,” Tait said. “A man they feel can do the job, not falter, not say one thing before the election and do another whole thing after the election, a man that stands his ground, keeps his word, protects our freedom — that’s who you should vote for.”

Kirk Cameron To Tackle Human Suffering in New Film Set to Release This Fall
Actor and producer Kirk Cameron is collaborating with Liberty University on a film project that is said to answer life's toughest questions about human suffering.
Cameron told The Christian Post in a statement on Wednesday that the film, set to be released this fall, "tackles the faith wrecking question that has turned Christians into atheists: 'Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?'"
In the film, which is based on a true story, Cameron said he takes the audience "on a journey to view a child's funeral from the perspective of Heaven's balcony, gaining a 100,000-foot view of the world."
"This film answers a universal question that must be answered by every thoughtful person – both religious and secular," Cameron explained. "Young and old wrestle with suffering and death, and all are in need of hope, faith and love. So I'm making this movie for adults and teenagers, old and young. I want both my grandparents to be inspired and my children to be captivated by this exciting new film."
He describes the film as "beginning in the garden of Eden, where we witness the creation of Adam, the creation of Eve, and [later] Cain murdering Abel, Noah's flood, the birth of Israel, and Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and the destruction of the Jewish temple in A.D. 70."
Cameron says the project is the most personal film he's ever worked on.
"This film will be beautifully shot, scored, and edited to create a very unique and personal approach to this difficult topic. My desire is to bring hope, inspiration, and life to the faith of people everywhere," he commented.
