Since 1997, Adam McManus, 42, has been the host of The Adam McManus Show heard weekday afternoons from 3-6 p.m. in the San Antonio and Austin, Texas market on AM 630, KSLR, a Salem Communications affiliate. He's an articulate champion of the traditional Christian values that have made this country great. In fact, the readers of the San Antonio Express-News voted him both their favorite talk show host and favorite radio personality.

Prior to coming to the Lone Star state, Adam hosted his call-in talk show Take A Stand on WEEB Radio heard on 1460 AM in Raleigh, North Carolina and on 990 AM in Fayetteville. Plus, he hosted his daily talk show on AM 1240, WPJL in Raleigh and AM 1530, WRTP in Durham, North Carolina.

In addition, for four years, Adam hosted an hour-long, weekly call-in TV talk show on Community Television in Raleigh, North Carolina which won The Southern Sunshine Video Festival Award in 1994 for "Best Talk Show" in the Southeastern region of nine states. And he worked as a TV guest editorialist on the 5-million watt WKFT-TV40 in Fayetteville, North Carolina with 2-minute long editorials which aired daily at 11:58 a.m. and 7:58 p.m.

Adam's father is Mike McManus, a nationally syndicated columnist, former Time Magazine correspondent, author and founder of the Marriage Savers ministry which seeks to cut the divorce rate among Christians in half. The eldest of three boys including John, a medical lobbyist in Washington, D.C. and Tim, a COO of a hospital in Mississippi, Adam pursued a religion degree at Duke University where he was trained in apologetics by Josh McDowell of Campus Crusade for Christ.

Having come to faith in Christ at the age of seven through the Sunday School program of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Darien, Connecticut, Adam served as a missionary for six months in Kenya and Tanzania between his freshman and sophomore year through Youth with a Mission where he showed the Jesus film to the Masai tribe and tried hard to avoid the malaria-carrying mosquitoes.

Adam has appeared on A Current Affair, The Coral Ridge Hour with the late D. James Kennedy in addition to local affiliates for ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC.

His columns have been published on WorldNetDaily.com and in the San Antonio Christian Beacon. Plus, he's been quoted in the New York Times, Washington Times, Fort Worth Star-Telegram, San Antonio Express-News, Raleigh News & Observer, and the Durham Herald-Sun.

He has broadcast live from the Texas Republican State Convention, the National Republican Convention, the Conservative Political Action Conference, Christian Coalition's Road to Victory conference, Family Research Council's Values Voter Summit, the International Christian Retail Show, the March for Life in Washington, D.C. and the Inauguration of President George W. Bush.

Adam has been endorsed by Sean Hannity, Chuck Colson, Ann Coulter, John Stossel, Michael Medved, David Limbaugh, Pat Buchanan, the late Rev. Jerry Falwell, Jerry Jenkins, Gary Bauer, and Joseph Farah. In fact, Colson proclaimed, "Adam's questions were sharp, to the point, and he kept the program moving beautifully. I have been through literally thousands of book interviews in my life. This was one of the best. Adam's very good at his craft."

On the flip side, Adam has debated the morally confused Rev. Al Sharpton, Alan Colmes, Rev. Barry Lynn, atheist Michael Newdow, and Satanic High Priest Michael Aquino. Not to mention a witch every Halloween, and an occasional psychic, homosexual activist and abortionist thrown in for good measure. He deals best with the stress by swimming a mile at the gym, making a gourmet meal inspired by Food Network's Bobby Flay or watching the next installment of 24, often wondering to himself why Jack Bauer doesn't run for President.

Adam compiles a daily e-mail blast which he sends to 4,341 of his listeners in South Texas alerting them to his upcoming guests, debates, action steps and the critical news of the day.

Because he believes that Christians should do more than just complain about society's moral decay, Adam has empowered his listeners to take a stand in light of Psalm 94:16 which asks, "Who will rise up for Me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for Me against evildoers?" Adam has organized pickets of:

• CBS-TV for airing a 60 Minutes segment featuring Jack Kevorkian killing a man on camera.
• NBC-TV for airing The Book of Daniel which mocked Christianity.
• Barnes & Noble for selling child pornography.
• Abercrombie & Fitch for their porno-filled catalogue.

In addition to emceeing many a pro-life banquet, Adam has spearheaded the Life Chain for several years which has drawn 5,000-7,000 Christians along the sidewalks of well-travelled streets in North Carolina and Texas during which they hold signs that state "Abortion Kills Children", "Jesus Forgives and Heals" and "Adoption: The Loving Option." The Life Chain participants also donate thousands of diapers to the local crisis pregnancy centers.

Adam was the original 40-year-old virgin, but decided he no longer wanted to burn with passion. So he married the former Amy Holzer of Dallas on November 11, 2006. Check out www.AdamsWedding.net for his 40,000-word, gut-wrenchingly honest, roller coaster of a love story. They eagerly await the blessing of home educating the children that the Lord might mercifully send their way. They attend Wayside Chapel, an Evangelical Free church in San Antonio, where they enjoy former Dallas cop turned preacher Roger Poupart powerfully preach the Word of God.
