Holy Bible: Divine Mercy Catholic Bible

by Chris Alar, Donald H. Calloway (Contributor), Kazimierz Chwalek (Contributor)

“There is nothing that man needs more than Divine Mercy.” –St. John Paul II
Divine Mercy is a gift given to us by God. Devotion to Divine Mercy has been growing through the revelations to St. Faustina and the modern-day ministry of St. John Paul II.

What Catholics may not realize is that the revelation of Divine Mercy is interwoven into the Bible.

Throughout the Bible, moments of mercy shed light on Sacred Scripture’s message of God’s infinite love for us.

The Divine Mercy Catholic Bible clearly shows the astounding revelation of Divine Mercy amidst the timeless truths of Sacred Scripture.

This Bible is edited and compiled by several Marians of the Immaculate Conception — including Fr. Chris Alar, Fr. Donald Calloway, and Fr. Seraphim Michalenko — and other authors to explain how God encounters us with mercy through his Word and sacraments.
