This book contains twenty-two individual 'Scripture Studies.' Each study focuses on one general area of study. These studies enable individuals to do in-depth, topical studies of the Bible. They are also invaluable to the Bible study teacher preparing lessons for Sunday School or a home Bible study. They can be used for group studies as well. The range of topics covered in the different studies is broad, from what the Bible teaches about itself to what the Bible teaches about divorce and remarriage. Included in each study are hundreds of Scripture references so there will be no lack of material from which to begin your studies. So if you're an individual looking for an aid to improve for your own personal Bible studies or a Bible study teacher or home group leader looking for help in preparing lessons, this book will be of great benefit. The sources for the viewpoints promoted in these Scripture Studies are wide and varied. The ideas are taken from commentaries, study Bibles, theology books, books of various kinds, and most importantly, this writer's own personal study of the Scriptures. The sources for the opposing views presented are publications of groups that promote the ideas and personal conversations this writer has had with members of such groups and adherents to the views. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the Scripture references in these studies. But with the thousands of references presented, it is likely that a few 'typos' have crept in. If the reader comes across a reference that does not make 'sense' in the context presented, just go onto the next one. There are always plenty of verses listed for each point. It is my hope and prayer that God uses these Scripture Studies to help the reader to: '... grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen' (2 Peter 3:18).

If you’re looking to learn how to get the most out of prayer, this book is indispensable. As St. Augustine notes, When we pray, we speak to God; when we read Scripture, God speaks to us. The key to enriching our prayer is learning the language of Christianity, and the most effective way to learn the language of Christianity is an ancient technique known as lectio divina (“divine reading”). In these pages, you will learn: ● How God speaks directly to each of us in Scripture. ● How to overcome the obstacles to a consistent and fruitful prayer life. ● Why the fourfold method of lectio divina leads us directly into the heart of contemplative prayer. ● Strategies for reading - and praying - the Bible fruitfully. ● What Christian meditation is and how it differs from non-Christian approaches. ● How everyone - not just saints and mystics - can truly reach mystical union with God. In this succinct book, Catholic theologian and biblical scholar Dr. Tim Gray walks you through the Bible and the wisdom of the saints to reveal the practical steps of this great treasure of our Tradition. Learning the simple steps of lectio divina will provide a practical and effective way for you to enhance your prayer life through the power of God’s Word.

As Catholics, the Mass is the center of our Faith. We celebrate it every day. We know all the responses. We know all the gestures. But do we know what it all means? In A Biblical Walk Through the Mass, Dr. Edward Sri takes us on a unique tour of the Liturgy. Based on the revised translation of the Mass, this book explores the biblical roots of the words and gestures we experience in the Liturgy and explains their profound significance. This intriguing look at the Mass is sure to renew your faith and deepen your devotion to the Eucharist. This book is used as the text for A Biblical Walk Through the Mass Study Program, but it may also be purchased separately at steep bulk discounts. For those not able to attend a study, this is a perfect resource for catechesis on the deep riches of the Mass.

BIBLICAL STUDIES - When a Bible Student or Seminarian begins to lay the basic foundations of the Old and New Testament, one of the first assignments is to provide a book-by-book summary of each biblical book. This is a basic exercise, but like every good foundation, it's one that can't be skipped. An understanding of the larger contexts and contents of each biblical book not only aids in understanding of individual passages, but also reinforces our understanding of all of Scripture. PERSONAL NOTES - This workbook is designed for you to work through each of the books of the Bible and produce your own personal book summaries. You have the chance to reflect on authorship, theological themes, as well as provide a basic outline of each book of the Bible. As you work through the Bible, you'll be able to trace similar theological themes and whole Bible connections. SIMPLE WORKBOOK - What you'll find within this book is a simple template that will allow you to work through each of the book fo the Bible in a way that deepens your understanding. Also, as you fill up this book you will grow in your understanding of each book of the Bible, and the larger message of the Bible as a whole. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES - In the back of this book I've included two appendices. The first provides my recommended commentaries on each book of the Bible. The second provides my recommended books with regards to Old Testament Introductions, New Testament Introductions, Biblical Theology, and Hermeneutics. This is a really simple workbook, and it's one that will require you to put in a lot of work. But, the outcome will be a deeper understanding of God, specific books of the Bible, and the whole Bible.
