Faith in the White House: Compelling Portraits of Courage That Will Inspire You

A poignant study of the great Americans leaders who were inspired by God - both in their everyday lives, and in times of crisis. Experience how the power of faith can change a life, build a family, and shape the destiny of our nation. "An amazing insider's view of how George W. Bush 'walks the talk' of his faith. You'll be deeply touched by this documentary." - Steve Atkin, International Press Association If you are interested in the new autobiography Decision Points by George W. Bush, then this movie is a must see. When George W. Bush was elected the forty-third president of the United States, it was widely claimed that he brought the most faith-based administration to the White House in American history. But is George W. Bush the exception . . .. or is he only the latest in a long series of American presidents and statesmen who have integrated their political duties with rich lives of faith? Gain knowledge in the faith of great American leaders like: George Washington: "It is impossible to rightly govern in the world without God and the Bible." John Adams: "I consider a decent respect for Christianity among the best recommendations for public service." Abraham Lincoln: "It is the duty of nations as well as of men to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God..." Thomas Jefferson: "God who gave us life gave us liberty." Benjamin Franklin: "The longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men ..."

Have there been national leaders who were willing to publicly state and actively promote, not just religion, but Christianity as a fundamental precept of their administrations. This program explores what Presidents have had to say about faith . . . and how . . . or if . . . it has been woven in to the fabric of the Nation. Was George W. Bush the first major political figure willing to admit he was firmly fixed in the principles of Christianity? Our review of history would seem to suggest exactly the opposite. George Washington: . . . "It is impossible to rightly govern in the world without God and the Bible."
John Adams: I consider a decent respect for Christianity among the best recommendations for public service. Abraham Lincoln: It is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God . . . Thomas Jefferson: God who gave us life gave us liberty.
All of these great leaders turned to God for guidance. Interestingly, the historic record does not mention a single instance of a general uprising against any show of faith by any president . . . except . . . against President George W. Bush. Why? What is different today? Faith In The White House demonstrates that this nation appears to have strayed very far from its roots.
