“A family history of fighting tyranny for over 900 years and in the spread of the Gospel for over 1600 years can have a very powerful and deep impact on one’s outlook and mission in life. It has been my honor to take up the family business.”
- Citizen Dave (Dave Rogers)
My family heritage in the Cause of Liberty and Spread of the Gospel has been nothing but epic. I really do feel the weight of history and duty, and pride - but also the pressure to fill big shoes, but most importantly to do what is right by God in all things.
SETTING THE PUBLIC RECORD STRAIGHT
I don’t often talk about my family heritage/history much because some may just think it a fool’s pride. In truth, it’s the opposite. Pride yes, but pride in good things that honor God.
God does commands us make known publicly our testimony, our story, and our ‘fathers’ ancestors story of where we and they have done God wrong (sinned against him) - setting the record straight that God was right and we or our fathers were wrong. (Leviticus 26:40-42 & Nehemiah 9:1-3) It also glorifies God and his ways. This is how people learn best - from our and others’ mistakes.
I believe the recounting of where we and our ancestors went right in obedience to God could be just as important. SO, I will start to tell my story and my ancestors’ story more fully and here is my first try.
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT REALLY DRIVES ME
Duty to and Love for God and People.
The Pursuit and Spread of True Liberty (Spirit, Body, and Mind).
MY FAMILY HISTORY OF FIGHTING TYRANNY
My family history includes leading the fight against the tyranny of English Kings (Scottish Independence), the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215, the Scottish Declaration of Independence (Arbroath) in 1320. All of these ancient struggles for liberty laid the foundations, the ideas, the historical principles for the Founding Fathers and the development of the American System of Liberty we know today.

MY FAMILY HISTORY IN THE SPREAD OF THE GOSPEL
The original Gospel (pre-Catholic era) spread to Ireland and Scotland with the original teachings of Jesus (Y’shua) and Apostles from missionaries sent out by Paul and the Jerusalem Church. This dates back to before 400 A.D. and the time of Saint Patrick.
MY FAMILY funded and establish centers of learning and schools for the training of missionaries that made converts and established other schools throughout the British Isles and Western Europe. It includes the conversion of the pagan Picts in Eastern Scotland which led to the unification of Scotland as one of Europe’s first nations. This era lasted from the 300s A.D. to the 1100s A.D. and slowly ended as the Roman Catholic persecution and ‘inquisition” and their bid at control advanced steadily westward. In the British Isles, this ‘original’ faith is sometimes called Celtic Christianity.

Yea. Now you know the rest of the story.
As if my life as a 40+ year sold-out disciple of Christ wasn’t epic enough. God just put things on a whole another level. Wow. It really is heavy and cool and motivating and gives focus to God’s hand over my family and my life. God is Good.
