President Carter on Bible Week
In designating November 18-25 National Bible Week, President Jimmy Carter made the following statement: “Much of our strength as a nation comes from our commitment to personal and moral values. The Bible has been a major source of teaching and reenforcing the values of many of our people throughout our history. This commitment is not weakened by our exposure, understanding and respect for different religious beliefs. On the contrary, our freedom of religion gives each American the precious opportunity to seek the truth, to worship according to the private dictates of individual conscience, unhampered by any governmental restraints. Access to the Scriptures and familiarity with their teachings is an important adjunct to this freedom “The Bible has been an important part of my life since childhood. I read it daily and find it a constant source of inspiration and spiritual guidance, providing ever-new insights into human nature and human problems. 1 MrabingsW jfor W Ulf Keep the Force with you. Read the Bible. the slogan for the 39th Interfaith National Bible Week, November 18-25, 1979. Bible readings for National Bible Week were selected by Thomas A.
