On April 15, the 800 year old Notre Dame Cathedral in France caught fire and sustained significant damage. One CNN news reporter wrote this about it:

The massive, majestic cathedral looked like it had been there forever, and would remain until the end of time. If only for a moment, Notre Dame ablaze reminded us that we all share this world; that human history means everyone's past. If only for a moment, the notion of a "World Heritage," which UNESCO formally bestows on places that we, as humanity, ought to care for and cherish so that we can pass them to future generations, seemed exactly right. We all hurt over the loss of Notre Dame."

While the history and significance of this building can never be replaced, the truth is that the Christian influence of the era in which Notre Dame was built, largely propagated by the Catholic church, was lost many years ago.

This building of spires, towers, and glass contained many biblical sculptures, paintings, and carvings-yet it was temporary. The work of masons and builders that could be lost in a moment.

This Stand in the Gap Weekend program centers around a piece of history that can never be destroyed. In fact, the Divine proof of its eternal existence goes like this, “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my Word shall never pass away.”
Of course, those are the words penned in the Bible-that book of books that will last throughout the ages of time and beyond.

Guest, Keith Davidson with Seedline International, joins the program to talk about the significance of the Bible and why it's indispensable to the survival of a nation.
