In a sermon first delivered in 1919, and again in 1958, both Reverend Stephen Fish Sherman and his son Reverend Jonathan Goodhue Sherman emphasize Theodore Roosevelt’s preference for action and deed over “creed or cult,” and make use of quotations from Roosevelt that show his familiarity with and use of the Bible.
