Relax. The country is in good hands. There's a woman in the White House, The First Ladies of the United States—from Martha Washington to Laura Bush—are an exclusive sorority of great women who contribute significantly to the success of their husbands' presidential administrations. 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.
