Governors, Mayors, Congressmen, City Council Members, and others who hold a public office will receive an invitation to be amongst first to open the Bible reading in their state along with Bishops and Pastors.
William & Selena Owens, authors of several books including, Divine Protocol -- Gods Official Order that is Correct in the Dealings of His Kingdom" and Helpmeet -- The Power A wife Has to Give Her Husband Help", received the inspiration for this revival-oriented vision in 1999. Married for 16 years and along with their 4 children, they will take to the highway to blaze a message of Revival America!" Its core theme is, Gods people taking the gospel to America with a boldness and aggression for those who are not saved". William states, This is not an entertainment event for Christians; rather, he affirms, This prophetic act is seed for revival that our nation so desperately needs." The Owens family attends West Angeles Church of God In Christ, in Los Angeles, CA where Bishop Charles Blake is pastor.
Though the Owens family will be the first family to represent this annual reading from state to state, they have organized Bible America!" to be taken ownership of by churches, organizations and individuals alike. Higher Standard Publishers will publish the book for Bible America!" entitled, The Bible & America!" Scheduled for a release date in July 2002, this is a compilation of essays written and submitted by those who believe the Bible is relevant for our nation. Included are stories of Gods faithfulness, endurance, salvation and other Bible & America centered topics. Christians are encouraged to submit an essay to be reviewed for inclusion in this book to essay@bibleamerica.org.
The national 8-page newspaper for Bible America"! debuts in February 2002. Along with relevant news about the event and issues related to church leadership and America, it will highlight 12 businesses and 12 churches from and for each state that will share their heart about the Bible and America!"
