The American Story: Building the Republic

America's Constitutional Republic is like no other. Most Americans recognize the names George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison, but few can tell you their stories-much less that of James Monroe, John Quincy Adams, or Andrew Jackson. These seven men from the Founding Ear were America's first presidents. They established our republic on the foundation of the Constitution and its liberties. But who were they? Were they good or bad leaders? How did they become presidents? Did they follow the Constitution or abandon its principles?

Tim Barton is the President of WallBuilders, carrying its mission to the next generation. Tim focuses on sharing the truth of America's founding and history, exposing the lies that threaten to tear down our society. He consults with numerous state and federal legislators on policy and legislation and speaks to a variety of groups across the nation each year about America's Godly heritage. Tim's ability to tell the story of America's past, directing audiences to understand how that past connects to the present and what steps should be taken to secure the future, has inspired listeners nationwide. He is host of One Room Schoolhouse-an online series and podcast, cohost of The WallBuilders Show, and a regular contributor on Victory News. He has also been a guest on numerous national television and radio programs, including The Ben Shapiro Show, the Glenn Beck Program, TBN, Andrew Wommack Ministries, The Epoch Times, Todd Starnes, and many others. Regardless of where he is, Tim speaks into the lives of those around him, encouraging them to live passionately and to follow Christ whole-heartedly.
