Carter’s devout stance sets him apart in presidential faith
AP Religion Writer George W. Cornell notes Jimmy Carter openly outlines his Christianity, declaring Jesus first in his life and denying political manipulation of faith. Carter, a Southern Baptist from Plains, Ga, emphasizes personal sinfulness, reliance on God, and studying the Bible, while affirming Jews and Christians worship the same God. He contrasts with earlier presidents who spoke less about religious views and says his convictions guide actions beyond electoral considerations.
