About this Plan
While not required by the Constitution, the Bible has been used at nearly every single presidential inauguration since Abraham Lincoln. This eye-opening 9-day plan will show you just how deeply the Bible has impacted this famous American political event. You’ll see some of the Bibles and verses presidents chose for their swearing-in ceremonies and how they incorporated the words of the Bible into their inaugural addresses in order to articulate their vision to the American people.
