WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump spoke at the annual National Prayer Breakfast on Capitol Hill on Thursday, sharing how recent incidents strengthened his belief in God. He called on the nation to bring religion and faith back into daily life.

“We have to bring religion back. We have to bring it back much stronger,” Trump told a bipartisan group of lawmakers. “It’s one of the biggest problems that we’ve had over the last fairly long period of time. We have to bring it back.”
