1.The Bible. The Bible is the best-selling book of all time, having sold around 5 billion copies to date. The book had several authors and can be roughly divided into two parts: The Old Testament and the New Testament

The Bible's purpose is twofold. The first is to show us all have broken God's Law. James 2:10 declares, "For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become accountable for all of it" (ESV).

3.The Psalms are a pathway to deeper prayer because they were Jesus’ prayers. He knew them and prayed them. He is hidden in the Psalms, inviting us to know him more intimately in prayer.

Plunging into the Psalms in the spirit of St. Jerome can draw all of us closer to God.
