A national news organization has described him as “America’s historian,” and Time Magazine called him “a hero to millions – including some powerful politicians. In fact, Time Magazine named him one of America’s 25 most influential evangelicals.
As statues around the nation are being torn down and the legacies of our nation's Founding Fathers are under assault, in this episode, David seeks to defend their legacies to set the record straight on who exactly they were.

Shawn began in the pro-life movement as a volunteer while in college at Texas A&M. During this time, he helped lead the first-ever local 40 Days for Life campaign, organizing Catholic and Protestant Churches for peaceful prayer vigils outside of Planned Parenthood Facilities. There is a movie, Unplanned, that shares a part of his story of how he led a Planned Parenthood Director out of the abortion industry to become a pro-life activist. Shawn has grown the 40 Days for Life Movement both nationally and then internationally, and this fall 40 Days for Life will host prayer vigils in 588 cities and 32 countries around the world.
