 pages too thin November 19, 2008
This Bible has some great features. But the physical quality of the book is poor. As a new Epsicopalian looking for a " Catholic" Bible, this was very helpful. I appreciated all the extra features which explain Church traditions in relation to Scripture. But it is useless if one wants to mark one's Bible with pen or marker.
 Catholic Youth Bible November 13, 2008
This bible is wonderful for teaching teens in religious education class. I like the descriptions and prayers that are part of this bible. I would highly recommend this bible to anyone for teens and younger.
A Wonderful Bible November 3, 2008
This bible is wonderful. It provides thought provoking sidebars to the readings, suggested bible study programs, and is very easy to work with. A great resource for RCIA classes.
Excellent August 25, 2008
It is the perfect bible for teenagers. Teenagers now a days have a lot of questions about the contents of the bible & this bible comes with the answers! With historical notes & fun facts inserted, this bible makes it fun to read it!
