At the Alfred M. Landon Lecture Series, 1982, Ronald Reagan stated:

"We can't have it both ways.

We can't expect God to protect us in a crisis and just leave Him over there on the shelf in our day-to-day living.

I wonder if sometimes He isn't waiting for us to wake up, He isn't maybe running out of patience."

At Reunion Arena in Dallas, 1984, Ronald Reagan stated:

"America needs God more than God needs America. If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a Nation gone under."
