Do Catholics really read the Bible? If so, how do they read it and is there anything unique about their approach? What role does the Bible play in Catholic life, teaching, and culture? As a leading Scripture scholar who also teaches students and preaches to everyday people, Fr. Daniel Harrington, S.J., has made it his life's mission to answer these and many related questions about the Bible and its relationship to Catholic life. Accessibly written, How Do Catholics Read the Bible? blends biblical scholarship with compelling personal anecdotes to equip readers with the tools they need to more fully engage Scripture and the Catholic tradition. With chapters on how the Catholic canon came to be, what the Church teaches about the Bible, appropriate methods for analyzing Scripture passages, and how to incorporate the Bible into everyday life, this book is ideal for individual or group use in parishes and classrooms. Each chapter concludes with questions for reflection and recommendations for further reading.

How did Jesus pray, and what can we learn from his teachings on prayer? In this inspiring and informative book, renowned Scripture scholar Daniel J. Harrington, SJ, looks at the prayers of Jesus as well as the New Testament prayers about him. His insightful explanations consider the Jewish heritage of the prayers as well as their use by the early Christians. Each chapter ends with a "think, pray, and act" section that helps us to see how these ancient prayers can deepen our relationship with God and shape our character and outlook on the world and other people. Our own conversations with the heavenly Father will be enriched when we turn to him as Jesus did.
