Ave Catholic RSV Notetaking Bible - 9781646800780

The Ave Catholic RSV Notetaking Bible from Ave Maria Press is a Catholic journaling Bible in the Revised Standard Version, Second Catholic Edition (RSV2CE). It has extra-wide margins for notes and single-column, line-matched 9-point text. It includes cross-references to every Bible verse and passage that appears in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, along with essays, study guides, and reading plans from Catholic teachers and scholars. It is designed for adults and teens who want to write in their Bible as they read, whether on their own, in a Bible study group, in a high school classroom, or in adult faith formation.

The Catechism cross-references show where each passage is cited in Church teaching, so readers can trace the scriptural foundations of Catholic faith and practice. Contributors include John Bergsma, Sarah Christmyer, Sonja Corbitt, Anthony Pagliarini, Mark Hart, and Meg Hunter-Kilmer. Their material includes "Eight Steps to Becoming a Bible Reader," "How to Love the Word," and reading plans for Advent, Lent, and a one-year chronological reading of the Bible. Introductions to the Bible as a whole and to each Testament come before the text. Ave Maria Press is an apostolate of the Congregation of Holy Cross, United States Province of Priests and Brothers.

Use & care: For personal study, prayer, and journaling, and for group Bible studies, classrooms, and faith formation; try a new pen or highlighter in a back margin first to check for bleed-through on the thin Bible paper. Keep the cloth cover dry and clean, and store the Bible away from heat and direct sunlight.
