About this title

Synopsis

As Catholics, we believe that “‘the Word of God . . . is set forth and displays its 
power in a most wonderful way in the writings of the New Testament’ which 
hand on the ultimate truth of God’s Revelation” (CCC 124). The writings of the 
New Testament center upon Jesus Christ, whose life, death, and Resurrection 
form the keystone of our Faith. 
A Catholic Guide to the New Testament sheds light on the essential details of the 
Gospels, historical books, and letters of the New Testament, giving them context 
and depth. Discover how the books, people, and events of the New Testament 
weave together to reveal the “big picture” of the early history of the Church, with 
features including: 
•  Introductions to each of the 27 books of the New Testament,  
which dive into topics such as
◦ the book’s relationship with the Old Testament and Catholic Tradition,
◦ its significance to the greater story of salvation,
◦ who wrote it and when,
◦ key events and themes, and 
◦ major characters..
•  Full-color charts, illustrations, and maps showing the teachings  
of Jesus, the spread of Christianity in the ancient world, and more!
•  Articles written by Catholic biblical scholars on important topics  
including geography, archaeology, the Gospels, and the sacraments.
•  The Bible Timeline® color coding—the same system used in the  
#1 podcast The Bible in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz)® featuring Jeff Cavins. 
A Catholic Guide to the New Testament will help you discover the riches of 
God’s revelation.
 

About the Author

Megan Madden is a homeschooling mother with a passion for writing and speaking on authentic femininity and virtuous womanhood. In 2017, she began graduate studies in marriage and family at the International Theological Institute in Austria. After moving to Kraków, Poland to work with university students, Megan more personally continued her research on the complementarity of man and woman, particularly on the question of what it means to be a woman. She delved into the study of renowned Catholic writers on women such as St. Edith Stein, Gertrude von le Fort, Alice von Hildebrand, St. John Paul II, and St. Teresa of Avila. The results were the development of Megan’s online ministry A Mother’s Lace, as well as speaking opportunities and her book with Ascension: Mary, Teach Me to Be Your Daughter. Megan lives outside of Oxford, England with her husband, who is a lecturer in theology, and their five children.
