I speak as a man of the world…and I say to you "Search the Scriptures." John Quincy Adams, Sixth President The strength of our country is the strength of its religious convictions. The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith in these teachings would cease to be practically universal in our country. Calvin Coolidge, 30th President Inside the Bible's pages lie all the answers to all of the problems man has ever known…It is my firm belief that the enduring values presented in its pages have a great meaning for each of us and for our nation. The Bible can touch our hearts, order our minds and refresh our souls. Ronald Reagan, 40th President Pray for our nation that we will get back to our biblical values and our dependence on Almighty God, Jesus Christ! Pray this week for the following people: The Lord is fair in everything He does, and full of kindness. He is close to all who call on Him sincerely. He fulfills the desires of those who reverence and trust Him; He hears their cries for help and rescues them. Psalm 145:17-19 Living Bible Darin & Suzanne Sikk (Chelsea and D.J.)
