Welcome to The Wall Builder Show.

This is the intersection of faith and culture where we look at today's current topics from a biblical,

historic, and constitutional perspective.

My name is Tim Barton.

I'm the president of Wall Builders.

I'm joined by my dad David Barton, the founder of Wall Builders. And if you've been listening this week, you know that our good friend Rick Green, who is our co-host, is in Hawaii right now. Yesterday, his youngest son was married today. He and his wife are enjoying the beach. Now that all their kids are married, and so all they have to do now is fund all their

grandkids, but their kids are out of the house.

And yesterday, Dad, we spent time talking through the end of the shutdown in the Senate.

We know today the House is going to be voting on at the time that we are recording this.

The House has not yet voted. So depending on what station is playing this program or when you

listen to it on podcast, there might already be other information that we have not provided

yet. We will cover more of that as the week goes on. But also, we had notes yesterday.

This was totally my bad.

I had notes yesterday to make sure we talked about Veterans Day.

We wanted to appreciate and honor veterans.

There were some stories and friends that we wanted to highlight.

And it wasn't until we were done that I realized, oh, my goodness, we didn't cover Veterans Day.

So, Dad, we need to back up.

First of all, thank you to all veterans.

But you said you wanted to maybe tell some stories in that respect as well.

You know, it's kind of fun, even just getting the history.
