A Catholic Introduction to the Bible
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This is the introduction to the Old Testament I've been waiting for! It is up-to-date, erudite yet accessible, succinct yet thorough, and most importantly, it responds to the Church's call for biblical scholarship done from a hermeneutic of faith.”
Biblical Foundations for the Role of Healing in Evangelization

Foreword
(wrote the foreword)
Christian Living
“Cardinal Schönborn shows his genius for explaining the truths of the faith in a vivid and attractive way, for convinced believers as well as the skeptical. These reflections beautifully demonstrate that Christian morality is reasonable and living a holy life is possible.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Steve Ray brings Genesis to life, unpacking this fascinating book with the passion, zeal, and unique insights he’s known for. He explains the literal sense of each passage and, more importantly, shows how Genesis foreshadows in hidden ways the fullness of God’s plan in Christ.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“A window into a form of suffering that too often goes unrecognized in the Church. Sensitive, well-balanced, practical, theologically rich yet accessible, honest and realistic yet filled with hope.”
Theology
“This volume makes an outstanding contribution to the retrieval of the ancient Christian biblical hermeneutic. Through a careful analysis of individual texts, Boersma demonstrates that patristic exegesis is not based on naive allegorizing but on a theology of history in which Christ is recognized as truly present in the words and deeds of the old covenant. This book will reinforce the growing consensus that patristic exegesis remains valid and indispensable for the church today.”
Christian Living
“A perfect book for those wrestling with the problem of why God allows good people to suffer. Giszczak tackles the tough questions with compassion, clarity, wit, and deep Catholic faith.”
Apologetics
“The Case for Jesus topples the naïve skepticism that too often dominates the study of the Gospels by showing that the evidence for the truth of the Gospels is far stronger than is often assumed. Pitre has a unique talent for putting scholarly work of the highest caliber into an accessible and engaging form. This book should be on the shelf of every homilist, catechist, and Bible study leader.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“A model of biblical scholarship, integrating sound critical methods with a disposition of faith that is open to the revelation of the living God through his Word. This engaging book opens up for students the panoramic vision of the Bible that has been obscured by centuries of confessional battles and has been fragmented by Enlightenment rationalism. It succeeds in rendering the biblical world truly habitable, thus bridging the gap between the Bible and Christian experience.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Griffin's careful study is an antidote to the impoverished understanding of the priesthood that is prevalent today. [Essential] reading for priests and those who form them.”
