Attendance rises as Carter teaches Sunday School
President Jimmy Carter teaches Sunday School at the First Baptist Church every six to eight weeks. He prepares lessons with a national Baptist plan, engages deeply with scriptures, and encourages discussion. Secret Service monitors attendance, but Carter keeps politics away from the class, while Sunday School turnout rises about 25 percent.
