Truman. Under President Ronald Reagan, the first Thursday of May was permanently established as the National Day of Prayer. To this day, U.S. citizens, leaders, and lawmakers heed this call by gathering to “pray fervently in righteousness and avail much” for the spiritual welfare of a country that was birthed in prayer and reverence for God. “Today’s National Day of Prayer commemorations in the nation’s capital are a reminder that the life of our nation is sustained by the prayers of the people,” said NRB President & CEO Troy A. Miller. “As we faithfully intercede for our country and our ministry domains, God is faithful to answer.” As Christian communicators, we rely on prayer in all our endeavors. With NRB Convention just weeks away, we welcome your prayers that NRB 2023 would be fruitful in building up Christian leaders, opening new pathways for the Gospel, and advancing excellence in Christian media. ![]() NRB 2023 Exhibit Hall Sells OutNRB’s largest Exhibit Hall in over a decade—40,000 square feet—is officially sold out!
