#119 - How the Bible Became the Bible

Why Catholic?

About this episode

Justin Hibbard continues our series on Sacred Scripture by examining how the Bible developed into what it is today - the most sold book in the world. In this episode, you’ll learn about some of the aspects about the Bible that make it unlike any other book, how the Old and New Testaments developed, and how the Church decided on what books should be included as Sacred Scripture.
