Speaking at the event in Rock Springs Church, Milner, Cruz said:
“It is my hope that that marriage decision serves as a spark to start a fire that becomes a raging inferno and an awakening that sweeps this country as the body of Christ rise up to defend the values that have built America into this great nation that we are.”
Last month, Cruz claimed to be the biggest and best anti-gay GOP candidate for 2016.
