Paul Harvey was one of the great radio personalities of 20th century America. Paul was a Christian man. He was a staunch American patriot and Godly man.

In 2005, Harvey was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the United States’ most prestigious civilian award, by President George W. Bush.

Bush said of Harvey’s career. “He first went on the air in 1933, and he’s been heard nationwide for 54 years. Americans like the sound of his voice…over the decades we have come to recognize in that voice some of the finest qualities of our country: patriotism, the good humor, the kindness, and common sense of Americans.”

His popular “Rest of the Story” segment was broadcast into millions of American homes and businesses.

Paul Harvey was also a devout Christian who was deeply concerned that the United States was abandoning God and morality at her own peril.

Every year, starting in 1965, Harvey shared a story at Christmas, ‘The Man and the Birds.’
