Student text: The Catholic Youth Bible is an outstanding resource for classroom use. It can be used alone as the primary textbook with its companion teaching manual, or it can be used in connection with a conventional textbook on the Scriptures. The Catholic Youth Bible offers the Catholic Christian perspective that is missing from other youth Bibles. Its many articles and excellent introductions make it a powerful textbook and a helpful resource for retreats and prayer services.
The Teaching Activities Manual for "The Catholic Youth Bible" offers nearly 300 activities to help teachers and youth ministers use The Catholic Youth Bible as the primary textbook in Scripture courses or as a primary resource for Scripture study with youth.
