I was with Charlie Kirk four days before he was shot in Seoul, Korea, and they're interpreting his talk.

And he goes, the first thing is to put Jesus first in everything you do.

And then the second most important thing is to preserve the freedom to do the most important thing.

And if we don't get involved, we'll be sharing our faith for a prison cell.

So the idea is that you just can't live your life and ignore what kind of country that...

We're leaving our kids.

And I knew, as you mentioned, all three of those personally, Pat Robertson, the best.

I've been on the board of Regent University for the better part of 20 years and now with Gordon Robertson.

But just to see that here's somebody that just, the Lord put the idea in his heart.

To start this university?

Yeah, well, I think you're hitting it right on the head.

They had an experience with the Lord.

Pat Robertson, probably around 1956, he sat for the law exam, the bar exam, and failed.

And then after that, he met Harold Bredesen, and he was a Lutheran minister, the

pastoring in New York, a Reformed church, but he was charismatic, and the movement was sweeping through America at the time.

If you saw the Jesus Revolution movie and Greg Lowery in the

with the guitar in churches and music, but that touched Pat Robertson.

And so then the idea is he read through the Bible and not just reading it as a history book, which it has definitely history in it, but reading it as God speaking to me right now.

And he would be confirmed by other different verses.

Anyway, in 1960, he had the idea to buy a UHF TV station.
