Star-Spangled Blessings: Devotions for Patriots - Todd Starnes

Star-Spangled Blessings will introduce you to patriots who discovered the secret to happiness was not politics or power, but a life lived as an Ambassador for Christ. nPresident Reagan once called the Western White House his Open Cathedral. It's a bit ironic because Reagan's Rancho del Cielo is hardly palatial. It's a simple ranch house on more than six hundred acres of mountain land. Reagan spent many years riding horses on the dusty trails. n nBut there was one particular spot that brought him great comfort. Whenever the president was facing a moment of crisis, he would visit a place that would become known as the Psalm 121 Overlook. n nI look to the hills from whence cometh my strength. My help cometh from the Lord--the Maker of heaven and earth. n nReagan found strength and encouragement in those words, as did many of the great American patriots we introduce to you in these pages. n nWhat a blessing to know that so many of our leaders placed their faith in a much higher power than Washington, DC. n nMichelle and I hope that you, too, will be strengthened and inspired by our little devotion book. Our nation has such a rich and vibrant Christian heritage, and it's our hope that you will find many Star-Spangled Blessings!n
