Synopsis:
A Bible designed to make Scripture more accessible to Catholic women,
focusing on deepening their spirituality by nurturing a love for God and
his Word and teaching them how to use Scripture in prayer and daily
life. It consists of the NRSV text with the deuterocanonical books, 260
Daily Meditations drawn from classic and contemporary sources, weekend
meditation, character sketches of women of the Bible, and articles on
living the Catholic traditions.
Description:
The Catholic Women’s Devotional Bible is designed specifically to
nourish a woman’s spirituality, making it easy to form a habit of daily
prayer and reading. It includes a year’s worth of meditations, drawn
from classic and contemporary sources, all written by women.
Designed especially to meet the needs of Catholics and those accustomed
to liturgically-based forms of worship, it includes a six-year reading
plan tied to the lectionary, making it easy to locate readings for daily
and Sunday liturgies. Additionally, each weekend devotional is based on
the life of a particular woman of the Bible, helping you see the
relevance of her story today. Each book of the Bible is preceded by a
brief introduction highlighting its historical context and its most
important themes. Additional articles focus on topics like the
sacraments, holy days, the liturgy, and spiritual direction, explaining
the link between tradition and Scripture to help you gain a greater
understanding of your faith. Meditations are drawn from a rich variety
of authors, including:
Joan Wester Anderson Sister Wendy Beckett Esther de Waal Catherine of
Siena Dorothy Day Fran Ferder Briege McKenna Julian of Norwich Joyce of
Rupp Mother Teresa Teresa of Lisieux Macrina Wiederkehr
Scripture offers wisdom for important everyday issues like
relationships, marriage, child-rearing, simplicity, prayer, and finding
real peace. If you dip into it regularly, it will become a well of
continual refreshment, nourishing your faith and strengthening your
sense of God’s loving presence in your life.
