Church is also the author, producer, and voice talent behind a trilogy of documentaries: "Road to Independence" (the story of the Declaration of Independence) and "The Fame of Our Fathers: How Immortality Inspired Our Constitution" and the "Spirit of '76" (Writing and ratifying the U.S. Constitution). Taken from source material, including personal letters, notes and transcripts of debates, the three documentaries pride themselves on their historical accuracy in portraying the Founding Fathers in their, literally, own words.

Mr. Church has recently adapted and released the "Road to Independence" into an animated feature.
