From Jesus to Christ: The First Christians

https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/religion/

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!

Belief Net

https://www.beliefnet.com/

This is a huge site! Multifaith and independent in nature, Belief Net has a mission to "help people meet their own religious, spiritual, and moral needs by providing information, inspiration, community, stimulation, and products." The site is easy to navigate and is divided into the categories of religion, spirituality, morality, inspiration, culture, news, teens, milestones, and family. Articles, Web site addresses, and multimedia opportunities abound on this very informative site that is suitable for both teachers and students!

Into His Own: Perspective on the World of Jesus

https://virtualreligion.net/iho/

This Web site is designed as a tool for the historical study of the Christian Scriptures. Many of the works are written by Jewish authors, especially those composed after the Hebrew Scriptures that can be found in any Christian "Old Testament." Selections from non-Jewish sources are also available, which can bring the writings of Christian authors into a clearer cultural perspective. This is an excellent resource for teacher background.

Praying Each Day

From the De La Salle Christian Brothers in Britain, this site boasts reflections and prayers for each day of the year, an extensive listing of links by category, a search engine, and a scripture locator. Excellent resource.

In a beautifully designed flash presentation, questions are posed to God. The responses will touch you and give you pause to ponder. A wonderful experience to share with colleagues and young people.

Gutenberg Bible Online

If you are interested in the history of publishing or the history of Bibles, check out this great site with the entire Gutenberg Bible online--all 1,282 pages! The "model book" gives handwritten directions (with English translation) for painting each of the illuminations in the Bible. Appropriate for any age-group, this is truly a fascinating Web site.

Crosswalk Bible Study Tools

https://www.biblestudytools.com/

This site has online versions of several Bible translations, including approved Catholic translation including translations including the deuterocanonical books (apocrypha). Also contains online commentaries, concordances, and dictionaries. But beware, this is not a Catholic site and many of the resources will not give an authentic Catholic interpretation of Scripture.
