Over the course of nearly four decades, thousands of spiritual seekers from around the globe made the unusual pilgrimage to the rural whistlestop of Plains, Georgia, for a remarkable opportunity to glean enduring lessons from Scripture taught by one of the world's most unlikely Sunday School teachers--the 39th President of the United States, Jimmy Carter. In 1981, having been defeated for a second term in the White House, President Carter returned to his hometown of Plains, a humble agricultural community of almost 600 folks nestled inside the quiet pines of Southwest Georgia, where the faith-focused former leader of the Free World began opening the pages of his well-worn Bible for a weekly audience of all kinds of people, from all around the world. Through the open-door hospitality of Maranatha Baptist Church, the Plains congregation where Jimmy maintained a membership for his entire post-presidential life, "Jimmy Carter's Sunday School Class" welcomed crowds of curious folks from a vast variety of faiths, lifestyles, and cultural backgrounds on the search for a once-in-a-lifetime experience to witness a national treasure share his relevant insights from time-tested Scriptures. Always thoughtful, never pretentious, Carter's lessons illustrate how Scripture-inspired love can reach the world beginning right at home. Also included are selected lessons taught at The First Baptist Church of the City of Washington, D.C., during President Carter's four years in the Oval Office. MORE THAN A PRESIDENT is destined to become a treasured edition of transformative truths from one of the most beloved human beings in the world.
