My teenage daughter's first semester English class was Bible in Literature. What learned reading specific chapters of the Bible, then reading contemporary fiction born of those stories was incredible. Although she attended religious instruction growing up, this academic look at her spiritual teaching validated more for her than I ever would've guessed.

K, glad that your daughter had a good experience in her English class.I had never read Leviticus. Several verses from it had popped up in several places lately, so I decided to read the book.
