We are all familiar with our forefathers. Now it's time to get
to know the women who stood behind and beside the most powerful
men in our country, bore their children, managed their homes,
hosted their parties, entertained their dignitaries, handled
their press and public relations, did their laundry,
straightened their ties, and partnered with them to build the
United States of America. So if the First Lady is the power
behind the president, who is the power behind the First Lady?
God. The United States is "One Nation Under God," and that trust
in God begins in the White House. From the first day of the new
republic to this very morning, there has been prayer in the
White House. Faith has played a dominant and consistent role in
daily White House routine run by Prayer, Power, and Petticoats.

You are about to meet wonderful wives and mothers who have
much to teach us about family and faith, the First Ladies of the
United States of America.
