Public High Schools in More Than 35 States Now Offer Bible Literacy; Education Starts at a Young Age With Children's Story Books
The Bible is the most influential book ever written, according to TIME Magazine. It is the best-selling book of all time, and also the best-selling book of the year, every year. But despite the importance of it in historical and cultural influences on the U.S., many Americans are biblically illiterate. Works from William Shakespeare to Charles Dickens and speeches from Abraham Lincoln to Martin Luther King, Jr. were all influenced by the Bible. In fact, experts estimate that Shakespeare alludes to the Scripture some 1,300 times.
