Bible Stories Revisited, Discover your story in the Old Testament. Sr. Macrina Scott, OSF"Many of us learned Bible stories as children. When we revisit them later in life we bring a rich treasure of life experience that gives a depth and meaning to the stories.

She includes 24 Old Testament stories and offers reflection on each Scripture story based on modern scholarship and her insights as religious educator and scholar.
