How do Catholics view the Bible?
I just received an email from someone asking for a copy of my recording of “Dei Verbum”, the document on Divine Revelation from the Second Vatican Council.
My blog seemed to be the easiest way to share them. Each of the chapters is in a separate MP3 file:
Chapter 1 (MP3) Chapter 2 (MP3) Chapter 3 (MP3)
Chapter 4 (MP3) Chapter 5 (MP3) Chapter 6 (MP3)
I hope these help you with your studies Alyson 🙂

Wise Words On Wednesday: Worry
Mary In Scripture
Ever wondered why Catholics make such a big deal about Mary? Why is she called “The New Eve”, “The New Ark” and “Queen of Heaven”? Is that in Scripture? All these questions are answered in the following 11-minute video:

The Gospels and language
As we all know, theology always sounds better in an English accent. Below is a video of Dr. Peter Williams,Warden of Tyndale House, giving a lecture on the historicity of the Gospels.
In his lecture he looks at some of the details of the Gospels, such as names and places, and he does a little bit of statistical analysis.
“Theology and statistics?!” I hear you cry?
Wonderful, isn’t it?
Enjoy.
Mark Hart
Just in case you’ve never encountered him, you should know about Mark Hart, “The Bible Geek”:
Mark Hart is the Vice President for LifeTeen, as well as being an author and speaker. A lot of his material is geared towards teenagers, but I’d say that his content is also perfect for adults.
Personally, I’m subscribed to his podcast “Sunday, Sunday, Sunday” which discusses the Sunday Mass Readings and it’s one of the resources I use it to help me to write my lectionary notes.
