This site has online versions of several Bible translations, including approved Catholic translation including translations including the deuterocanonical books (apocrypha).

From Jesus to Christ: The First Christians
(Link #117)
This is one of the most comprehensive sites on Christianity that I have ever seen! From PBS Frontline, this site looks at Jesus from a historical perspective and from the spiritual dimension of Christ. The site gives the latest research surrounding Jesus and his world. The four Gospels are explored, along with Q, the Gnostics, and the Gospel of Thomas. The first Christians and how the sect spread and became successful are discussed in detail. The home page offers five major categories to choose from, and each of those takes you to subcategories containing a wealth of information. Maps, charts, pictures, and audio excerpts from the program are also included. The teacher's guide is extremely well done, giving suggestions for using the content and site in history, religion, English literature, and psychology classes. This is a must-see!

Hollywood Jesus

This entertaining and informative site attempts to examine pop culture from a spiritual point of view. It includes articles that review current movies and television shows, as well as an interesting perspective on the current state of culture.
