As an adoptive father, Ryan has a rather unique perspective of the innate nature of purpose. He is one of ten children who were adopted in a diverse family of fifteen. Ryan earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing at Messiah University and a Master’s Degree in Communications at Regent University. Ryan was honored  (along with his wife, Bethany) with the Alumni Christian Service Award from Messiah, and Ryan was given the Alumnus of the Year Award from Regent.

As a factivist, Ryan loves creating content that is fearless, factual and freeing. His work addresses abortion, adoption, fatherlessness, racism, sexuality, free speech, religious liberty and the War on Common Sense. He has been officially denounced by the ACLU, Media Matters, Planned Parenthood and the NAACP, which means he must be doing something very right. The pro-abortion NAACP sued Ryan and the Radiance Foundation for parodying the civil rights organization’s name, apparently forgetting that free speech is a civil right. After two years in federal court, the NAACP lost the landmark free speech case.

Ryan and his wife, Bethany, founded The Radiance Foundation to diligently research and creatively present challenging social issues through ad campaigns, multimedia talks, fearless journalism, compassionate community outreaches, and ground-breaking books. The Radiance Foundation’s work (including the first public ad campaign exposing abortion’s devastating impact in the Black community) has been extensively covered in The New York Times, Fox News, MSNBC, Breitbart, ABC News, The Washington Times, The Washington Post, The Christian Post, Newsweek, CNN, Townhall, EWTN, JET, LA Times, Yahoo News, National Review, and many more news outlets.
