To Help You Study - Your Faith and Scripture

1. Always pray before reading the Holy Scriptures, this will help to guide you.
   
2. Study  Lectio Divina (Booklets are available)
   
3. Be aware of the differences in Catholic and Non Catholic Bibles. (For instance in Non Catholic Bibles, 7 Books are usually missing:Baruch, Sirach, Wisdom, Maccabees 1 and 2, Tobit, Judith and some of Esther and Daniel.
4. Always study the Bible in a quiet area, free from distraction. 2 Tim 3:16 - "All scripture is inspired by God.............."
