"I have had Patrick Henry and George Washington
speak at two of our national conventions. It was a great honor
to have these Fathers. I learned a great deal of valuable
information about our history from their presentations. It
would be a great service if every convention held in America
could hear them speak. You inspired me to be a better
American. We all need their messages."
Ralph Palmen, President and
Director, Pinnacle Forum America |

| "Lance Hurley helps to creatively
educate and inspire those who hear this message to realize our
God-ordered national heritage. His presentation clearly

"Dr. Hurley's presentation at
our Chaplains Academy was more than educational. His mastery
of history is unparalleled in this period. He brought to
life our National History in a way that more that completed
our academic study. He was motivational, inspiring, and
introspective concerning facts that brought our nation into
its birth and to the continued sacrifices that must be made
to to insure our blessed gifts of freedom, liberty, and
justice.

captivates the audience's attention. Lance's message is laced
