Experience the American dream with today’s Patriot of the Past interview. I’m your host, John Gillespie.
It’s January 3, 1777. I’m on horseback with Scottish-American Major General Arthur St. Clair at the Battle of Princeton.
JG: “General St. Clair, look out! The British cavalry is attacking!
ASC: “Don’t worry, Johnny, we will prevail. My boys will hold the line and push the laddies back to bloody England.”
Prevail we did, as General St. Claire’s leadership inspired and encouraged the Continental Army to beat the British at the Battle of Princeton.

John and Jan Gillespie are the founders of the Rawhide Boys’ Ranch; they have fostered 351 teenagers and wrote the book Our 351 Sons; they have also assisted numerous churches in developing youth programs and expanding their total church ministries. After running for U.S. Senate, John founded 1776 American Dream, which exists to demonstrate the vision of our founding fathers and help our generation of youth passionately embrace those values.
