Study Group with Gov Eric Holcomb: R.E.S.P.E.C.T. (ft. Mike Pence)

Study Group with Governor Eric Holcomb and former Vice President Mike Pence: R.E.S.P.E.C.T. 


Since our nations Founding, America has weathered contentious times. Presidential assignations and even more attempts, two World Wars, multiple wars and conflicts in Asia and the Middle East. There have been economic Depressions and Recessions, two global pandemics fraying our national fabric and protests over the social issues of the day that turned deadly.


In 1779, Lieutenant Colonel George Rogers Clark said, “Great things have been effected by a few men well conducted” in describing how leadership of a few, greatly out numbered and gunned, toppled the British Empire in capturing Fort Sackville on the way to our Revolutionary War victory.


Approaching our Nations 250th birthday, it’s always been men and women of high conduct and integrity that have led us through the most dark and challenging days. As once said, adversity does not build character, it reveals it.


GUEST: Former Vice President Mike Pence
