Why do Americans pray?
What is the relationship between prayer and health?
What is prayer's unique role in American history?
According to Gallup Research more than 80% of Americans pray
regularly. Prayer unites us as a nation. During times of natural
disaster, war and tragedy, it is not unusual to see Christians, Jews,
Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists join hands in prayer. Americans of all
beliefs pray for comfort and hope. Prayer demonstrates faith in a
supernatural power. The Apostle Paul writes, "...faith is being sure of
what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." It is the one act
of faith that distinguishes America from every country in the world.
Inspired by James P. Moore, Jr.'s acclaimed book, One Nation Under God-The History of Prayer in America, this compelling and thought-provoking two-hour program objectively looks at:
- The influence of prayer on American history.
- The impact of prayer on social and political movements.
- The role of prayer in forgiveness and redemption.
- How public prayer unites us in times of crisis.
- The controversy over school prayer and much more.
