In The Word Within, the sixth book in the Old and New series, authors Maura Roan McKeegan and Scott Hahn tell the story of God's plan of salvation for his people. Just as the Ark of the Covenant was the resting place for God's Word, written in stone, the Blessed Virgin Mary carried God's Word, Jesus Christ, within her womb. Together, their stories reveal the amazing gift of God’s mercy.

See biblical typology—the Old Testament people, symbols, and events that foreshadow the New Testament—come to life in The Word Within.
