Next Level Resources

I cannot remember what it was like to write Holly or research texts or read the Bible before Verbum. I also cannot imagine doing those things now without Verbum. This has completely reinvented the way I approach the Sacred texts and engage my faith.

on a few occasions that I have needed to get tech-support they have been fantastic. on one occasion, I needed to change my default payment details and again they were very helpful at Faith Life. I highly recommend this tool to any preacher or student who is interested in a well balanced / powerful learning and teaching tool.

Finding info with A1

I love Verbum, been using it for years in doing catholic research, study, personal reading and for writing homilies. With A1 becoming so useful I wonder if a Verbum A1 assistant might be on the horizon? It sure would be helpful to me.

Counterintuitive

Unfortunately, it just doesn’t seem to flow very well. Spent multiple clicks trying to get to a book that I already purchased incredibly frustrating. For non-technical people that just simply want to have a digital book to read. I think the application is in its infancy and need some upgrade. I’m sure it will probably get better but compared to. Online applications that allow you to buy a book and read it it pails by comparison.

Excellent resource for Bible Study

I have been using Verbum for a while. I primarily use it for reading scripture on a daily basis, but also for my in depth study of the Bible. With many commentaries, interlinears, and Bible maps, it is the best tool out there for anyone who wants to delve deeper into Scripture especially Catholics

There is depth here.

As a practicing lay Catholic I assure you, if you want to probe and understand the depth of scripture and your faith, you will find many, many tools at your fingertips. It won’t do your Examen for you. You will still need a daily praxis and daily prayer. You will still need to surrender your will, see Christ crucified in your neighbor and quench his/her thirst, physically and spiritually.

Are you ever curious as to the Greek or Hebrew behind the translation? What Augustine might have thought about this or that? There are tools to go as deep as you would like without carrying a stack of 15 books then paging around to get where you need. Want the Lectionary? It is there and all these resources are correlated.

Anyway, I would sorely miss Verbum if it wasn’t around!
