Obviously, it wasn't necessary to purchase these works in a stand-alone form. My Bible is Ignatius Press' Revised Standard Version. I bought my copy in 2006, a few months after sponsoring James Fox's initiation into the Catholic Church. That experience helped me recognize my own need for a fuller understanding of, appreciation for, and participation in the Catholic faith (an ongoing project in its own right). Reviewing my Amazon history, apparently I did not purchase the Bible at the time I purchased James's gift books-- finances must have been tight. Instead, I got around to the Bible purchase five months later-- in the same order as Mark Steyn's America Alone, of all things.
