About this listen

In The Bible Is a Catholic Book, Jimmy Akin shows how the Bible cannot exist apart from the church. In its origins and its formulation, in the truths it contains, in its careful preservation over the centuries, and in the prayerful study and elucidation of its mysteries, Scripture is inseparable from Catholicism. This is fitting, since both come from God for our salvation.

If you're a Catholic who sometimes gets intimidated by the Bible, The Bible Is a Catholic Book will help you better understand and take pride in this gift that God gave the world through the church. We are the original Bible Christians!

And even non-Catholics will appreciate the clear and charitable way that Jimmy explains how the early church gave us the Bible and how the church to this day reveres and obeys it.

This is a great dive into the history of the recorded word of God. I would highly recommend it to all sectors of the Christian faith. The title is click-bait for Catholics, but honestly, it’s an accurate account of how the Bible came about and how it has managed to survive over the centuries, so that we still have access to it today.
