Born in Kansas City, Missouri, David Brown was a healthy child. When he was fifteen months old, he came down with a disease called Kawasaki’s which eventually left him blind.

Once he graduated, David was invited to live and train full-time at the Olympic Training Center, now the Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center, in California.

In the summer of 1993 Staff Sergeant Keni Thomas was deployed to Mogadishu, Somalia, with the 3rd Ranger Battalion as part of an elite special operations package called Task Force Ranger. Their mission was to find and capture a criminal warlord named Mohamed Farrah Aidid. On the 3rd of October, Keni and his fellow rangers distinguished themselves in an eighteen-hour fire fight that would later be recounted in the highly successful book and movie “Black Hawk Down.” Nineteen Americans gave their lives and 78 were wounded in the worst urban combat seen by US troops since WWII. A powerful speaker, Keni captivates audiences from beginning to end as he tells the incredible story of extraordinary individuals and how they fought to bring each other home.
Emma Mae McDaniel is a speaker, social media influencer, host of the “Have You Heard?” podcast, and the author of You Are, All-Caps You, and Be Loved. She is living on mission for the glory of God, with a deep desire for people to know the Lord, grow in a confident relationship with Him, and live out the significant purpose that He has given them.

Patriot chapels are unique. We begin each session with worship, but this is not church. We fill each session with information, but our goal is not so much education as it is motivation. Many of our students and their families are facing incredible challenges in their lives, and we want to send a strong message about the power of Jesus Christ to invade any environment and to change any circumstance.

Each semester we hear from a number of inspiring speakers. Chapel guests have included a finalist on ABC’s The Voice, the first blind active duty officer in military history, a world famous magician, and an emergency-room doctor who finds time to feed people in Syria.

Our chapel guests all have this in common: they have worked very hard to get where they are, and they have determined to live for Jesus Christ no matter what it takes. For our students, chapel is an incredible opportunity to be motivated, inspired, and changed.
