You’ll never look at a Bible’s table of contents the same way again: Protestants and Catholics alike accept things about the Bible that aren’t written in scripture. For Catholics, that’s no scandal—tradition and Church authority are part of the story. If you’re ever hit with a “show-me-a-verse” challenge, remember: sometimes the answer isn’t in a verse at all.
Reading Between the Lines: Paul’s Allegory of Hagar and Sarah in Galatians 4

Jesus Grants Authority to Forgive Sins John 20:21 (RSV): Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.” In this verse, Jesus conveys to his apostles that they are being sent forth in a similar manner as he was sent by the Father. Just […]
Pope Francis: Year in Review
