How To Be A Child Of God

09/11/2026

Today, we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the first responders, service members, and countless Americans whose courage carried our nation through unimaginable tragedy.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to pray for the families who bear the loss of that day and give thanks for those who answered the call to serve others.

May we never forget. May we continue to seek God’s comfort, strength, and peace for our nation.

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” — Psalm 46:1

Prison Evangelism President, Cameron Shepherd, had the incredible opportunity to tour RRDonnelly in Houston, Texas, the team behind nearly 2 million copies of How to Be a Child of God shipped across the U.S. over the past decade. Seeing the scale of this mission firsthand was truly special.
