“The readable text and engaging layout are features that will appeal to our undergraduates—and I am impressed by the clear and concise summaries of theoretical positions."
-David L. Weddle
Professor of Religion
The Colorado College
“The Saint Mary's Press® College Study Bible is very well suited to my undergraduate courses.  The footnotes and cross-references are easy to follow, the timelines are very clear and helpful, and the entire volume is designed for maximum readability and usefulness for study.  This will continue to be my required version of the Bible for college-level beginners.

"This text fills a real need for a challenging introductory text in Catholic Theology. It is beatifully conceived, well written, inviting, and full of splendid resources rarely, if ever, found in comparable texts. I have used it with succes and recommend it highly."
-David Gentry-Akin
Associate Professor of Theology
Saint Mary's College of California, Morraga, CA
“I believe the Text is well suited to the needs of our students given the diverse background of our Student Body at St. John's University, Queens, New York. Our students bring a great deal of Cultural and Religious diversity to the classroom, so it is important to have a Text that can introduce Christianity to them in an objective manner.”
-James J. Hannan
Adjunct Professor of Theology
"Professor Christopher McMahon centers his ecclesiology firmly on the Paschal Mystery, and rightly so. Drawing on cutting-edge scholarship in Scripture, history, liturgy, systematics, and ethics, he provides a contemporary, ecumenically sensitive, and practical vision of the Church that will challenge students’ minds and inspire their imaginations. Called Together is a terrific textbook!"
-William P. Loewe, PhD
Associate Professor of Historical and Systematic Theology
Catholic University of America, Washington, DC
"WHO WOULD JESUS KILL? One of my student summed it up nicely: This book helped me understand the Christian views on war and peace across the ages. It also helped me see how Judaism and Islam view war and peace. Not only was it interesting, it was helpful."
-Dr. Paul R. Semers, S.C., D.Min.
Rivier College
"[My students] found the Glossary both helpful and informative. Some students said they found the book 'addictive' and their joy at learning so many new terms made it hard to put down. . . .

Non-native English speakers said that the glossary easily clarified unfamiliar English terms for them. Many English-speaking students appreciated the clear definitions of Hispanic terms and said the glossary would help them in their outreach ministry to Hispanic people."
-Matthew Ogilvie
Assistant Professor of Systemic Theology
University of Dallas School of Ministry
“Whether one is a novice in the study of Sacred Scripture and especially the Gospels or wishes to review this study with up to date references Jesus in the Gospels and Acts is a good place to start. Author Daniel J. Scholz has made the task enjoyable with an easy style.”
-John S. Munroe, PhD
Instructor, Master of Theology Program
“One of the challenges of teaching the Bible in a college setting is to help undergraduates grasp that we are involved in a serious academic pursuit and to awaken their intellectual curiosity. The Saint Mary's Press® College Study Bible provides me with the perfect format to introduce students to theological inquiry as a university discipline. This volume is their constant companion and allows us to move back and forth between methodology, contemporary theological application and praxis, commentary, study aids and of course the actual NAB text.”
-Cecilia González-Andrieu, PhD
Assistant Professor, Theological Studies
Loyola Marymount University
"Mark Allman's Who Would Jesus Kill? gives students insight into the just war tradition."
-Rosemary Bertocci, Chair

"Celia Deane-Drummond has established herself as one of the foremost amongst a new generation of scholars working in the field of Christian eco-theology. This volume provides an erudite overview and a balanced assessment of the state of the debate after three decades of heated discourse. She also provides a clear sense of direction for further reflection—with reference to the wisdom tradition. Here she weaves the Hebraic texts together with cosmic Christology, feminist views on Sophia and the pressing need for responsible decisionmaking in science and in civil society."
-Professor Ernst Conradie
"I think the Glossary would be a fantastic resource for RCIA or adult confirmation. I will recommend it for such contexts when I have the chance."
-Daniella Zsupan
doctoral student
Boston College Institute of Religious Education and Pastoral Ministry
"The style and tone of the writing is just right. In fact, many times the text reads like a story. The author's scholarship imbues the text but is kept somewhat in the background, and thus does not get in the way."
