“I've heard these readings my whole life. This is the first time I actually know what they mean. I was always told to leave the Bible to the priest. Now I read it myself. I used to read the same chapter three times and still not get it.”

This Is the Bible Guide Nobody Told You About.
They spent years on reading plans they quit, study Bibles with tiny footnotes and guides that skipped books of their Bible. Then they found the one made for all 73.
1
It gives you the background nobody ever taught you.
If a chapter ever left you lost, it’s not you. Every book of the Bible was written for people who already knew what was going on. Lirien fills you in first: what kind of book it is, who wrote it, what it’s about and how the Church reads it, with Catechism references. One page, in plain words.

It explains the books that always made you quit.
Most people get stuck in books full of rules or prophecies, like Leviticus, because nobody tells them what they’re reading. Lirien does. Each page tells you what kind of book it is, what it’s about and one passage to start with.

It covers the 7 books you hear at Mass but were never explained.
Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch and 1 & 2 Maccabees are in your Catholic Bible. You hear them at Mass, weddings and funerals, but most guides skip them. Lirien gives all 7 their own full page.

It connects what you read to what you pray.
Every page ends with one thing to do this week and one thing to bring to prayer. On Jonah:
“It may be easier to ask forgiveness for ourselves than welcome a second chance for someone we dislike.”

What Our Customers Are Saying...
Patricia S.
“Everyone at Bible study seemed to get it but me. I came back to the Church after 20 years and had to relearn everything. This made the Bible the easy part. I always thought the Bible was for people smarter than me.”
Rosa M.
“The footnotes in my study Bible were so small I needed a magnifying glass. I tried Bible in a Year and fell behind by February. My old guide didn't even have Tobit or Sirach. I'd Google a verse and get ten strangers arguing.”
Thomas B.
“Finally something that explains it the way the Church does. It has all 73 books. That was the first thing I checked.”
James W.
“Every page ends with something I can actually pray about. I read the page with my morning coffee, then open my Bible. I bought three: one for me, one for my sister, one for my friend from church.”
Quick questions
Is this actually Catholic, or is it a Protestant book with a crucifix on it?
It’s Catholic. It covers all 73 books of the Catholic Bible, in order, including the 7 books Protestant Bibles leave out: Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch and 1 & 2 Maccabees. Every page has a Catholic Reading section drawn from the Catechism and Church teaching.
Does it have an imprimatur?
We have formally submitted the book for an imprimatur, and the ecclesiastical review is underway. In the meantime, every page has been reviewed for doctrinal accuracy against the Catechism and trusted Catholic sources. We will update this page the moment it is granted.
Does this replace my Bible?
No. It’s a companion to the Catholic Bible you already own. Read the page for a book, then open your own Bible and read that book. You don’t need to buy a new Bible.
Do I need to know anything about the Bible already?
Nothing at all. It assumes you’re starting from zero. There’s no test, no group, no schedule, and no page you can fall behind on.
Is the print large enough to read comfortably?
Yes. Every book gets its own full page, laid out to be read easily, not squeezed into tiny footnotes like a study Bible.
What if it doesn’t help me?
You have 30 days to try it risk-free. If it doesn’t make your Bible clearer, contact us for a refund.
Are the second copy and the gifts really free?
Yes. With Buy 1, Get 1 Free you pay $59.99 for two books, and the Instant Digital Edition, Guided Audio Rosary and St. Benedict Wooden Rosary add $0 to your total. The Digital Edition arrives by email right after you order, so you can start reading tonight while your books ship.
The Lirien Catholic Bible Companion is a reference guide used alongside your Bible. It does not contain the complete biblical text and is not an official publication of the Catholic Church. Some verse numbering may differ between Bible editions.
