Dan Ford is a researcher, author, and speaker on the subjects of liberty and constitutional government between the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries.

For the past twenty years, he has been a collector of original artifacts and documents from English and American history with an emphasis on the influence of Christianity in public policy. As an avid student of the subject, he has compiled a considerable archive of contemporary source materials that speak firsthand to the worldview and governing precepts of America’s colonial forebearers and national framers. These artifacts range from pamphlets, maps, and broadsheets to books, private letters, and official documents.

For the last fifteen years, Mr. Ford has taught history from God's providential perspective to schools, churches, and conference groups as well as guided historical tours. He has written several articles on the subject of the cultural influence of the Christian faith, and he is the author of two illustrated books: In the Name of God, Amen; Rediscovering Biblical and Historic Covenants and The Legacy of Liberty and Property in the Story of American Colonization and the Founding of a Nation.

In both his writing and his teaching Mr. Ford recalls the foundational contribution of Christianity in the historic struggle for constitutional government as well as the cause of religious and civil liberty. His objective is to unfold America’s genuine cultural inheritance and to demonstrate by way of facts and artifacts that modern caricatures of our nation’s history often prove to be misrepresentations that run counter to a rich, robust, and well-documented past.
