Black Robed Regiment Presentation

The Bartlesville Chapters of the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Sons of the American Revolution are jointly sponsoring a presentation of the “Black Robed Regiment” presented by Reverend Dan Fisher.

As a leader of the modern “Black Robed Regiment,” Dan is committed to telling the amazing story of the patriot preachers of the 18th century who preached the “whole counsel of God” from their pulpits, reminding believers that they had an obligation to actively engage their culture and their government.  The commitment of these preachers was so strong that when all peaceful options to avoid conflict with Great Britain had been exhausted, these preachers in black robes led the men of their congregations and communities off to fight for liberty and truth on the battlefields of our War of Independence.

 Believing that without the leadership of these “patriot preachers” there would have never been the America we know today, Dan travels the country retelling their story through a stirring, one-man Broadway-style presentation.  Using period costuming, actual, identified relics from the War of Independence, and a full multi-media presentation, Dan brings the story of the amazing Black Robed Regiment to life.  His message is clear:  “If today’s American pulpit does not re-engage in the culture war as our patriot preacher ancestors did, we are going to lose our liberties and the Gospel could very well be driven underground – even in America.

Dan is the author of Bringing Back the Black Robed Regiment.  He also produced the 90-minute docudrama by the same title.

The program is free and open to the public.
