Known for their unwavering commitment to “building business God’s way\,” they’ve founded multiple successful businesses across the nation and spearheaded several pro-life initiatives. Growing up with a father who was a national pro-life leader\, they often joke that they’ve spent more time at abortion clinics than baseball fields!\n\nTheir success earned them a straight-to-series reality TV show with HGTV\, but it was abruptly canceled due to their unapologetic stand for life and biblical values. The cancellation thrust them into the national spotlight\, where they boldly stood by their convictions\, appearing on major networks like Fox News\, CNN\, ABC’s Nightline\, and Good Morning America.\n\nToday\, David and Jason travel the country\, inspiring believers to courageously stand for truth\, advocate for the unborn\, and live out their faith without compromise—no matter the cost. We are thrilled to have the Benham Brothers join us for this special event!
