"Pastor in Chief" Joshua DuBois is stepping down as the White House's liaison to faith-based organizations.

President Obama took a moment at the National Prayer Breakfast Thursday to pay tribute to Dubois, who has led the president's Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships since 2009.

"This morning I want to publicly thank Joshua for all that he's done, and I know that everybody joins me in wishing him all the best in his future endeavors -- including getting married," the president said.

The president said he will miss the daily meditations and scripture verses DuBois sends him by email every morning.

The 30-year-old will now be compiling those meditations and devotionals into a book for leaders. DuBois was 26 when he joined the president's team. Obama said he may be young, but he is wise in years.
