On the one-year anniversary of President Donald Trump's inauguration, CBN News Chief Political Correspondent David Brody gives him high marks on issues important to evangelicals.

Saturday morning, Brody tweeted:

.@POTUS first year "Evangelical Report Card" is in: A+ ! Judicial appointments,pro-life policy,religious freedom protection,moving the Embassy to Jerusalem, vital access and so much more.@realDonaldTrump has VALUED/EMPOWERED evangelicals more than any other president in history. pic.twitter.com/gTXYQCnPVv

Just this week, Trump became the first president to make a live address to the annual March for Life and the Department of Health and Human Services announced a Conscience and Religious Freedom Division to protect health care workers with religious or moral objections to peforming tasks that violate their conscience.

In addition to policy decisions addressing evangelical issues, Trump has appointed many evangelicals to Cabinet and sub-cabinet positions and granted unprecedented White House access to their leaders. Images of the president receiving prayer in the Oval Office and Vice-President Pence's statement that Trump is a believer only strengthen their support.

Here are some of the reasons evangelicals give the president top marks for his first year in office.

1. Presidential Prayer in the Oval Office

The meeting between President Trump and evangelical leaders was planned by the White House in advance, but the prayer time was totally spontaneous. It came during a daylong listening session with the Office of Public Liaison.

After the meeting, Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council told his supporters that he's found the Trump administration to be "genuinely interested and responsive to the concerns of the evangelical community" and added that after 14 years in Washington, DC "I am more optimistic that we can change the course of this country.

God Bless President Trump.

The liberal Presbys, Anglicans, Charismatics (yep, them too) and Catholics would disagree.

My time on the mission field has reshaped my once high regard for many major denominations. Contemporary Christians are currently buying in wholesale to the politically correct culture and giving sway to feelings/impressions rather than sound doctrinal instruction. Women, mainly, are driving this and dragging their husbands along.

Those who say “How can he be a Christian, he uses dirty words” are unaware of the difference between crude uncultured speech and cursing.

Cultural refinement might follow faith but it doesn’t constitute faith.

Consider how different the Greek of 1st Peter and 2 Peter looks. Peter picked up a new style. Peter was a believer in both books.

A more morally experienced Donald isn’t necessarily going to look like the locker room joking Donald of ten years prior bragging on what a sex object he is seen as (even though it was true).
