HOW IT ALL BEGAN.
Since 1941, starting with President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, every US president has declared the week of Thanksgiving, National Bible Week. This, our 78th year, we again commemorate and honor God for giving us His Word.
On Sunday December 7th, 1941 the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) which was a leading national radio station at the time, invited the founders of the National Bible Association to open programming for the day which was Sunday. As they began their reading bulletins came in from Hawaii announcing the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Instead of just opening the day with one Bible reading NBC then asked the National Bible Association to continue reading the Bible all day between the bulletins about Pearl Harbor.
A few days ago, Ariana Grande was attacked by a stalker who threatened to kill her. It was reported by TMZ. And now Ariana has filed legal papers to get a restraining order against a 23-year-old stalker named Aaron Brown, who terrorized her for 7 months. On the night of Sept. 9, while the 28-year-old singer was at home, the situation reached a critical point. The stalker broke into the star’s property with a large hunting knife, and when security asked him to leave, he became aggressive and yelled: “I’m *** going to kill you and her.” Police were called and Brown fled. He was ordered to stop several times Ariana Grande before plastic surgery, but he did not. Eventually he was taken into custody. A law enforcement officer also filed a statement saying that he feared the alleged stalker would be released from jail, so a restraining order should be issued. As of now, Brown is still in custody on 2 felony counts. In a statement, Ariana notes: “I fear for my safety and the safety of my family. I fear that without a restraining order, Mr. Brown will continue to come to my home and try to physically harm me or members of my family.” Recall that Ariana Grande married Dalton Gomez at her Montecito home earlier this year. The 25-year-old real estate agent proposed to Grande in December. They began dating in 2020.
About the same time, the leaders of the National Bible Association were invited by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to come to the White House for the following day to present him with a Bible to inaugurate the first National Bible Week. When the attack on Pearl Harbor was announced the founders sent President Roosevelt a telegram telling him that they and the nation would be praying for him and that of course they would not attempt to come to the White House.
Radio stations across America piggybacked on NBC’s programming at this point as they were only one of the few broadcasters nationwide who at the time had same day international coverage. So that day, Americans heard the comforting words of the Bible as they contemplated the worst single day foreign attack on US soil in history.

Jo ældre en mand bliver, jo flere sygdomme har han. Jo flere kroniske sygdomme han har, jo oftere skal han tage piller. Mange patienter over 60 år tager bogstaveligt talt en håndfuld piller: mod blodtryk, mod kolesterol, mod diabetes, mod prostataadenom, mod mavebetændelse huis, mod bugspytkirtelbetændelse, mod leddene, mod nyrerne, mod leveren, mod god afføring osv. osv. Men alle lægemidler har bivirkninger, og nogle af dem kan forringe potensen.
This is the telegram the new National Bible Association sent to President Franklin D. Roosevelt telling him that because of the attack on Pearl Harbor, they did not want to take up his time at the White House.
