The Word has moved online

Since 1943, “The Word” column has been found near the end of issues of America.

Especially after the Second Vatican Council, in response to the call for Catholics to “gladly put themselves in touch with the sacred text itself ”(Verbum Dei, No. 25), the column has been focused specifically on the next Sunday’s Scriptural readings.

To better fit our current monthly issue frequency, we will publish the full version of “The Word” digitally on America’s website, rather than in the Kindle edition distributed monthly. This item in the Kindle edition will continue to point readers to The Word column online through a link to the website.
