Pastor Ralph Rebandt joins Bill Johnson on Finally: a Decent Podcast for a raw, no-holds-barred conversation about his two runs for Governor of Michigan, the divine calling that drove him forward, and the shocking moment he was removed from the 2026 ballot through a controversial signature sampling process — a process governor Whitmer herself had vetoed just a year earlier.

Ralph opens up about:

• The God-given calling to run for governor — and why he couldn’t say no

• How the Michigan GOP establishment tried to silence and cancel him

• The fraudulent ballot removal: 18,214 signatures, a biased sampling process, and a Supreme Court that wouldn’t even look at the case

• Building a grassroots coalition across all 83 Michigan counties

• The “Mighty Men” — a group of Black community leaders in Detroit who pledged to deliver Wayne County

• Why Michigan is a red state — and why 1.7 million Christian voters staying home is the real problem

• What’s at stake if Jocelyn Benson becomes governor

• His ministry, Lighthouse Michigan, and the ongoing call to mobilize the church before Election Day

This is a story of faith under fire, political warfare, and a man who refuses to quit fighting for the next generation.
