Reply To: In Lecture 2, Dr. Dru Johnson mentions that there has been a decline in biblical literacy in the Church. After taking this course, what are some recommendations you would give to church leadership to increase biblical literacy?

I love this question! It’s a significant hurdle that many churches need to overcome for the betterment of their congregation. To help boost biblical literacy, church leaders can focus on teaching the Bible regularly with good context, encourage group reading and discussion, and make study opportunities more interactive and frequent. Sharing the bigger story behind Scripture helps it stick. It also helps when leaders demonstrate that they’re actively learning and provide resources for all ages to stay engaged.
