Dave Warnock is a former evangelical preacher who was diagnosed with a terminal case of ALS (aka "Lou Gehrig's Disease") in 2019. He was given three to five years to live, and he's chosen to spend that time focusing on life rather than ruminating about his impending death. Based on a web search, he's been actively speaking about his experience as recently as April of this year.

Is he preaching or something else ??

He's reassuring people that the threat of impending death doesn't mean his life is meaningless. He's showing that we don't need religion to face death with dignity.
