Experience the Bible

📖 The Scoop

Elizabeth Pietrantonio takes readers on a daily journey through scripture, reflecting on God’s faithfulness to His people and our response to His love. Approaching the Bible story through an historical timeline following the fourteen narrative books, she connects the events of the Old Testament with their fulfillment in the New, gently challenging readers to pursue lives of holiness and devotion to God.

Each day, readers will discover how the passages relate to their own personal journeys. With a re-energized faith, they will pray more fervently and see God’s hand not only in the history of the world, but in their own lives as well. Readers will enjoy the adventure as they cheer on the heroes, plunge into despair with the prophets, and fight alongside the people. Daily reflections and quotes from saints, Christian writers and theologians engage readers in the world they live in today. By the end of the 365-day journey, readers will see their own journeys in light of salvation history.

Although written from a Catholic perspective, Experience the Bible can inspire readers from all church traditions to fall in love with God’s Word and apply it to their lives daily. It is an ideal resource and will make an excellent addition to many personal and church libraries.
