Each have their own niche and The Fathers of the Church Bible: Nabre published by Our Sunday Visitor is no different. I find the way they wove the writings of the Church Fathers with the Bible itself to be a good tool for study. This Bible utilizes the New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE) text.

One year ago on Nov. 29, 2012 I made my first post here at The Catholic Book Blogger.

A hospital gift shop offering nothing to console or encourage either of us beyond stuffed animals, flowers, glossy magazines, and candy left me determined to write something I could have read aloud to her (thank God for the... Read more

Solanus Casey, John Neumann, Elizabeth Ann Seton, and Padre Pio to name a few.... Read more
