"Alan embodies the Lord’s admonition that in the kingdom, the leader shall be the servant of all, and the first shall be last." — Foreword by Nikolas T. Nikas

From a Baptist teenager campaigning door-to-door for Barry Goldwater to founding and building Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) into a one-hundred million dollar plus religious liberty powerhouse, Alan Sears' inspiring journey reveals how faith and principled leadership can transform lives and nations.

In this compelling interview-style biography from the Tepeyac Leadership Series, Alan shares the pivotal moments that shaped his path: learning Constitutional Originalism under Attorney General Edwin Meese III, discovering the difference between politicians who live their faith versus those who merely claim it, and the unexpected journey from Baptist seminary student to a Knight of St. Gregory the Great under Pope Francis. Discover how Alan Sears built ADF from one person and $4,700 into America's premier religious freedom organization, spent fourteen summers traveling the country with his family to fund the growing ministry, and overcame health challenges, all while maintaining his commitment to mentoring next-generation leaders. More than a success story, this book offers timeless wisdom on authentic leadership rooted in service. Alan's philosophy - drawn from his life verse, John 15:5, "Without Christ, we can do nothing" - demonstrates how humility, strategic thinking, and unwavering commitment to truth create a lasting impact.

Whether you're leading a family, organization, or community, Alan Sears' insights on "making stars of others" and maintaining a teachable spirit provide a roadmap for principled leadership in challenging times. Perfect for Catholics and Christians seeking inspiration from a leader who kept “the door open for the Gospel” while building one of America's most influential legal advocacy organizations.

The Tepeyac Leadership Series was started to offer contemporary models of lay Catholic leadership. The third volume features an attorney and legal advocate whose witness is especially timely. Alan Sears: on life, faith, and leadership is presented in an engaging question-and-answer format between Alan and Laurie Strom, editor for TLI Publishing. It is structured to give the reader insight into three concrete areas; the reader may jump into the section or questions he or she wants to explore first and navigate the rest at their own pace. The book includes photos of Alan Sears and a list of the principles that guided his organization. We hope you find in its pages much inspiration to nurture your own life, faith, and leadership.
