Concerned citizens Ted Mische and Guiliana Day explain the declining role of churches in America. Day is an anti-abortion activist who seeks to spread the heartbreaking truths of abortion. Mische has worked with Day for many years. Mische discusses the story of the Black-Robed Regiment, the clergymen who supported American independence through the struggle against Britain, as an example of churches doing good in the history of America.
