<\/center>Many thanks to New Song Church for hosting Rick Green, one of my favorite podcast personalities! On the 20th of January I attended an event where Rick spent the day teaching us about something we should all study more: American history. In particular he gave us a few hours of background on the mindset of the nation’s founders and authors of our founding documents, using their own writings to put some context to their work in creating the framework for this great nation.<\/p>\nThe rest of the morning and the afternoon session consisted of step-by-step study of the United States Constitution. There’s some extremely interesting stuff in there, and our country has gone down the wayward path it’s on largely because of our ignorance (average citizen and politicians alike) of this document.<\/p>\n
I bought a lot of books by various authors and also won a couple, as Rick occasionally rewarded people who could belt out answers to tough questions. One I got was means for addressing judicial misconduct (impeachment), and the other was John Quincy Adams’ signature issue, one which he pursued as a member of Congress after serving as President: abolition of slavery. He was one of only two Presidents to return to public service in Congress after his term, by the way.<\/p>\n

<\/center>I cannot give enough of an endorsement of Rick Green and David Barton and the work that they do. Rick is a former legislator and full time Texan, by the way. I told him that I can’t be a Texan, but at least I married one.<\/p>\nYou can learn some very interesting things about our nation, its founders, and the documents which created these United States by tuning into the Wallbuilders Live podcast<\/a>, a free daily half-hour podcast featuring David Barton and Rick Green. They give a lot of interesting news and background on what they call “the intersection of faith and politics” and refer back to the words of those who wrote the framework of our great nation.<\/p>\n Click here to visit the Wallbuilders website.<\/a><\/p>\n Click here to visit the Wallbuilders Live podcast website.<\/a><\/p>\n Here’s a link to Wallbuilders Live through iTunes.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Many thanks to New Song Church for hosting Rick Green, one of my favorite podcast personalities!
