In 1604, King James I of England authorized that a new translation of the Bible into English be started. It was finished in 1611, just 85 years after the first translation of the New Testament into English appeared (Tyndale, 1526). The Authorized Version, or the King James Version, quickly became the standard for English-speaking Protestants. Its flowing language and prose rhythm have had a profound influence on the literature of the past 400 years.

The Gospel of Nicodemus is an important work of New Testament apocryphal literature, traditionally associated with the Acts of Pilate. The text expands upon the trial, crucifixion, death, and resurrection of Jesus, giving special attention to Pilate, Jewish authorities, witnesses to Christ's innocence, and the events surrounding the Passion. It also contains the famous account of Christ's descent into Hades, where the powers of death are confronted and the righteous dead are delivered.

The Didache, also known as The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles, is one of the earliest and most important Christian texts outside the New Testament. Brief, practical, and direct, it gives instruction on the Two Ways of life and death, baptism, fasting, prayer, the Eucharist, hospitality, church order, and watchfulness for the coming of the Lord. The work offers a rare glimpse into the beliefs, worship, discipline, and moral teaching of the early Christian communities.

It started about a month ago in a Publix parking lot, of all places. I was sitting there praying, asking God to help me understand how the world had become so angry. I asked why it was so hard for people to love their neighbor as they love themselves. And He responded, "Maybe that's exactly what they are doing." It was like being struck by a lightning bolt. I grabbed my phone, opened my notes app and started writing everything that came to mind after that.What you're about to hear is partly what I wrote. I couldn't stop thinking about what God has said. People are struggling to love themselves...

A catechism is a summary of the principles of Christian religion and articles of the faith. The Baltimore Catechism specifically was the de facto standard Catholic school text in the United States from 1885 to the late 1960s. It was the first such catechism written for Catholics in North America, replacing a translation of Bellarmine's Small Catechism. The Baltimore Catechism remained in use in nearly all Catholic schools until many moved away from catechism-based education, though it is still used up to this day in some.
