There is a chapter on every President of the past, from George Washington through George W. Bush, with excerpts from Proclamations, Addresses to Congress, Executive Orders, Personal Correspondence and Memoirs. “Appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions…”-THOMAS JEFFERSON, Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776 “That the citizens of these States, abstaining on that day from their customary worldly occupations…acknowledge before God the manifold sins and transgressions…as individuals and as a nation, beseeching Him…through the Redeemer of the World, freely to remit all our offenses, and to incline us by His Holy Spirit to that sincere repentance and reformation.”-JOHN ADAMS, Day of Fasting declared during a threatened war with France, March 23, 1798 “In the present time of public calamity and war a day may be recommended to be observed by the people of the United States as a day of…humble adoration to the Great Sovereign of the Universe, of confessing their sins and transgressions, and of strengthening their vows of repentance.”-JAMES MADISON, Day of Fasting, November 16, 1814, after British burned the Capital “In a time of war humbly and devoutly to acknowledge our dependence on Almighty God and to implore His aid and protection…I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of America, do hereby…exhort my fellow-citizens…to pray Almighty God that He may forgive our sins.”-WOODROW WILSON, Day of Fasting May 11, 1918, during World War I “Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion and our civilization…Help us, Almighty God, to rededicate ourselves in renewed faith in Thee in this hour of great sacrifice.”-FRANKLIN D.

Case For Heaven
$27.99Add to cartBestselling and award-winning author Lee Strobel interviews experts about the evidence for the afterlife and offers credible answers to the most provocative questions about what happens when we die, near-death experiences, heaven, and hell.
We all want to know what awaits us on the other side of death, but is there any reliable evidence that there is life after death? Investigative author Lee Strobel offers a lively and compelling study into one of the most provocative topics of our day.
Through fascinating conversations with respected scholars and experts–a neuroscientist from Cambridge University, a researcher who analyzed a thousand accounts of near-death experiences, and an atheist-turned-Christian-philosopher–Strobel offers compelling reasons for why death is not the end of our existence but a transition to an exciting world to come. Looking at biblical accounts, Strobel unfolds what awaits us after we take our last breath and answers questions like:
*Is there an afterlife?
*What is heaven like?
*How will we spend our time there?
*And what does it mean to see God face to face?With a balanced approach, Strobel examines the alternative of Hell and the logic of damnation, and gives a careful look at reincarnation, universalism, the exclusivity claims of Christ, and other issues related to the topic of life after death. With vulnerability, Strobel shares the experience of how he nearly died years ago and how the reality of death can shape our lives and faith. Follow Strobel on this journey of discovery of the entirely credible, believable, and exhilarating life to come.
