President Trump recently tweeted, “Numerous states introducing Bible Literacy classes, giving students the option of studying the Bible. Starting to make a turn back? Great!” As usual, a tweet from the President brings with it greater public interest in the topic.

While the President has brought renewed attention to Biblical literacy courses, the courses themselves are not new. Even the ACLU has agreed that schools can offer courses about the Bible using the Bible as the textbook. Common concerns over the constitutionality of public schools offering a course about the Bible can be addressed with the basic guidelines of the curriculum.
