Rev. Bill Cook and America’s Black Robe Regiment
He exposes the destructive impact of the Johnson Amendment, a law that has silenced many pastors by threatening churches with the loss of tax-exempt status if they speak out on political issues. Rev. Cook argues this has weakened the church’s role in shaping the nation and robbed Christians of their God-given responsibility to influence culture.
Drawing from early American history, Rev. Cook highlights the American Revolutionary War and the vital role that preachers played in inspiring and leading the fight for liberty. Known as the original “Black Robe Regiment,” these patriotic pastors stood boldly in the pulpit and on the battlefield, fueling America’s drive for independence.
This episode calls today’s believers to reclaim that same courage, faith, and resolve—to defend freedom, confront tyranny, and lead America back to its founding principles.
