SUNDAY REVELATIONS: ‘Reminder of the eternal’ at W.H.
‘Nothing beats scripture and the reminder of the eternal,’ Obama said. Reuters CloseThe morning after hosting a Passover seder, President Obama told Christian leaders at the White House that the Bible gives him perspective more than anything else, including his family. 
“In the middle of these critical national debates, in the middle of our busy lives, we must always make sure that we are keeping things in perspective,” Obama said at the second Easter Prayer Breakfast he’s hosted as president. “Children help do that. A strong spouse helps do that. But nothing beats scripture and the reminder of the eternal.”
“As busy as we are, as many tasks that pile up during this season, we are reminded that there is something about the resurrection – something about the resurrection of our savior Jesus Christ, that puts everything else in perspective,” Obama said.
The pool also noted that Bishop Vashti McKenzie of Nashville’s African Methodist Episcopal Church read the opening prayer from his iPad.
