I am using the announcements module to provide a list of daily devotionals, which I'm limiting to about 2 weeks worth, but then I would like to link to an archives page where visitors (with only view permissions) can see all of the past announcements back to the beginning.

I originally tried to do this by copying the module onto a separate page and in the module settings on the second (archives) page, change the "History (Days) setting to 1000." But that only works up until the day that I did that. When I add new devotionals to the first page, they aren't reflected on the archives page.

Is there any way to have the two pages reference the same database, but with different histories?

You need to insert a module reference.  On the page to display the "copy", Use Add Module from Existing Page.  Then you can reference the old devotionals.

However, I'd recommend you use the User Defined Table and set up paging for it.  Otherwise, the page with the Archived Devotionals will eventually take a LONG time to load (because of rendering 1000 announcements).
