The Gospels Pocket Size: According to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John

Everyone should carry a small Bible or pocket edition of the Gospels and should find at least a few minutes every day to read the word of God. (Pope Francis, 2014) These four accounts of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ represent the heart of the Christian story and the truth of our faith. Containing so many of the familiar Bible stories and parables, each of the Gospel writers tells the story of Jesus from a different angle, yet read together they form a rich and dynamic picture of the Son of God. This edition of the Holy Gospels is an ideal size to take with you anywhere, so you can get to know Jesus better and deepen your relationship with him every day. Key features: * Contains the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John alone. * Uses the New Revised Standard translation (NRSV), a translation which holds the Imprimatur of the Catholic Church. * Includes an extra colour section on the background and meaning of the Gospels to help new readers understand the context around the Scriptures.
