0:00.0 | Welcome to the intersection of faith and culture. Thanks for joining us today on the |
0:10.2 | Wallbuilder Show website is wallbuilders. Show. I bet you've missed a show or two. So you've got to go to |
0:15.5 | wallbuilders.com. Catch up on the programs. You might have missed some great interviews or some of |
0:19.5 | other Good News Friday programs, Foundations of Freedom Thursday, which is what we'll be doing today. And then |
0:24.3 | if you've got some questions, maybe you've got some things you want, David or Tim, to address, send |
0:27.5 | those to radio at wallbuilders.com. It's radio at wallbuilders.com. And Daryl's got the first one that |
