New Bill Could Start Bible Classes in Fla. Schools; Schools Would Offer Old,New Testament Courses

A new bill introduced by a Florida democrat seeks to begin Bible classes as standard across the state's schools, the Christian Headlines website reports today (October 21, 2019).

House Bill 341, which was put forward by evangelist and Jacksonville politician, Rep. Kim Daniels, specifies that schools must offer classes covering both the Old and New Testament.

The bill declares that each school district must "offer specified courses relating to religion, Hebrew Scriptures, and Bible to certain students as elective courses."

Although students would not be forced to attend the classes, they must be presented with the option to enroll in them.
