The president of Revival Fires Ministries is encouraging Christians to mark the nation's birthday by sending Bibles to troops fighting the war on terror.

For several years now, evangelist Tim Todd has spearheaded a campaign to get Bibles to U.S. troops. So far, Revival Fires Ministries has provided more than 140,000 Bibles for troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Todd says all Christians can help in the effort.

"Whether people agree with the war or not, that's not the issue," Todd said. "We all agree that all of our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan should have Bibles."

And the only way those soldiers will get Bibles, he says, is through the efforts of Christians. "I believe that as long as the troops are willing to go on foreign soil and stand up for the freedoms we have here in America, that we ought to do everything that we can to see to it that every one of them gets a copy of the Word of God," he says emphatically.
