Tim is an ordained minister and has worked in a variety of church staff positions, including as youth minister, worship leader, and assistant pastor.

He consults with numerous state and federal legislators on policy and legislation and speaks to a variety of groups across the nation each year.
Tim’s ability to tell the story of America’s past, while helping audiences understand how that connects to the present and what steps should be taken for the future, has inspired audiences nationwide. Tim has been a guest on numerous national television and radio programs including The Ben Shapiro Show, the Glenn Beck Program, Louder With Crowder, TBN, Andrew Wommack Ministries, Believer’s Voice of Victory, and many others.
Tim graduated from college with a degree in Business Management and a minor in Biblical Studies. During college, he mentored youth, working with local youth groups and serving at an orphanage. He worked for several years as a senior counselor at a large youth camp in Hot Springs, Arkansas. He also served as an athletic director, teacher, and coach at a Christian School in Texas.
Regardless of where he is, Tim speaks into the lives of those around him, encouraging them to live passionately and to follow Christ whole-heartedly.

The American Story: The Beginnings
America is unique. No other nation in the world has enjoyed the widespread levels of stability, individual prosperity, and personal freedoms that have become customary in America today.
What made America different from other nations? Was it the people, the principles, or the blessing of God? It was all three of these, and this work will highlight each, telling the story of the most exceptional nation in the history of the world.
Our story is not one of a perfect people, yet it is a compelling account of diverse people seeking religious and civil freedom, escaping oppression, pursuing opportunity, and often joining hands to achieve common goals. The American Story highlights some of the interesting moments and incidents affirming God’s Providence in American history. Our past is full of captivating accounts of the brave and the cowardly; of heroes and villains; of atrocities, corruption, and greed as well as self-sacrifice, honor, and redemption. It is a compelling and fascinating story.

Conventional education keeps students at their desks, actively undermines their faith in Christ, and forces most to start their life in debt. A real alternative is desperately needed.

Homeschooling, College, and Political Indoctrination - Dr. Carol Swain
Education: Does God Have and Opinion?, by Israel Wayne
JONATHAN BRUSH is the President and CEO of Unbound, a homeschool graduate, and a homeschool dad of six. He worked for nine years as a Director of Admissions for a private, liberal arts college, and then spent over ten years working in non-traditional higher education. 
Jonathan loves Unbound and Unbound students and dreams every single day about new ways to connect them to each other. He gets to work with the world’s best team and the most amazing student body in the history of the world (which is just as awesome as it sounds), and field questions about Rule 4 violations (ask an Unbound student to explain). Jonathan and his family make their home in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.
