Welcome to the Wall Builder Show, where we're taking on the hot topics of the day from a biblical, historical, and constitutional perspective.

I'm Ray Green America's Constitution Coach, normally here with David and Tim Barton both, but today's going to be Tim Barton because we're sharing his presentation from the pro-family legislators conference. Yesterday, I told you more about it. Not a lot of time

today to talk about it, but you can definitely go to wallbuilders.com and learn more not only about

that conference to get your legislator there, but you can get your Christmas shopping done there.

So check out wallbuilders.com today for all of that Christmas shopping, lots of great

with which divine service is now performed. So encouraging,

and must afford the most pure and rational entertainment

for every serious and well-disposed mind.

He's giving the benefits of going to church

This is so interesting that the beginning,
