I wonder if the paper is glossy magazine paper. It looks that way.

We used to have few choices in regard to Bibles as Catholics. Now, it's getting to be we have too many. . . and the Ignatius Study Bible IS STILL NOT FINISHED.

hoshie said...: It looks nice and colorful. However with the text, NABRE notes, pictures and definitions it seems to be cluttered. However if it still remains in print I might get this when the bishops finish revising the New Testament in a few years.; November 24, 2015 at 9:10 AM

Prayer of Thomas Merton

My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road, though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always, though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.
