Where Faith Meets Reason: A Catholic Study Bible for the Thinking Believer
Science, Reason, and Faith Catholic Study Bible, published by Our Sunday Visitor, is a thoughtfully constructed study resource for Catholic adults who want to engage seriously with the relationship between Scripture, science, and reason. It addresses the questions that thoughtful believers encounter when faith and contemporary knowledge seem to pull in opposite directions, offering grounded, orthodox Catholic responses rooted in both revelation and intellectual rigor.
This Bible is an ideal resource for personal study, adult faith enrichment, Catholic book clubs, and parish reading groups. It is equally suited for individuals who have wrestled with questions about creation, miracles, or the soul, and for those who simply want a deeper, more intellectually satisfying engagement with Sacred Scripture.
