Do you yearn to connect with other women who, like you, live the Word of God in the world every day?

That connection is what distinguishes the Living the Word Catholic Women's Bible from other Bibles for women: it includes nearly 400 pages of special features created for women by women—more than forty scholars, teachers, religious, authors, ministers, and speakers from diverse backgrounds, including Leah Darrow, Sarah Christmyer, Johnnette Benkovic Williams, Meg Hunter-Kilmer, and Sr. Maria Kim-Ngân Bùi, FSP. You can walk through scripture with other women who want to grow closer to God by reading and using his Word in their daily lives.

The Living the Word Catholic Women's Bible stands out among its peers due to its breathtaking elegance. The exceptional and elegant design enhances your reading experience by connecting numerous components throughout the book, such as fifty Bible biographies, 97 Living in the Light of Faith articles, Take it to Heart questions for meditation and journaling, and quotations from saints and holy women. The soothing colors and other aesthetic aspects make you feel at ease when reading the Bible.
