The international spotlight caught David Gibbs III as lead attorney in the right-to-life trial involving Terri Schiavo, the 41-year-old brain-damaged woman whose case sparked public debate.
But Gibbs, who calls himself a "legal missionary," said Sunday in New Kensington that the link between law and the church started with the formation of the country.

"We've reversed what the Founding Fathers had done," said Gibbs.
