One of the most effective ways to help children return to Scripture is to help them understand what they are reading. This is as true for the Bible as it is for any other book. When children comprehend a story — its structure, purpose, and meaning — they are more likely to engage it thoughtfully and return to it willingly.
Many children grow up familiar with Bible stories yet lack the tools to read the Bible as Scripture: a unified, authoritative, and layered work that speaks to different cultures and times, and was written by many different authors. |

"The Acts of the Apostles (cf. 15:1-2, 22-29) in particular describe how the early Christian community faced the challenge of opening to the pagan world in its preaching of the Gospel. This was no easy matter; it called for much patience and mutual listening. This was the case in the community in Antioch, where the brethren, through dialogue — and even disagreements — resolved the question together."
In this exclusive excerpt from his new book, Pope Leo XIV presents a short commentary on Acts 15's call to all believers to listen first to God's voice. |
