My 22 year old daughter has expressed interest in reading The Bible. I was raised Catholic (school and all) I absolutely believe God Wins but I haven't practiced Catholicism in a long time, with the exeption of a daily phrase on The Bible app first thing every morning. My question is, is there a recommendation on what Bible she should read that she won't just get overwhelmed and not finish it. My first one was The Children's Bible as a kid. I'm not sure one of my traditional Bibles would keep her interested.

Surprised at all the downvotes. Very few people are perfect followers of their own doctrines, but love to throw stones at the faults they find in the doctrines of others. I do suggest you look at non-Catholic bibles for comparison, but I've found much good, and many good people in the Roman Catholic church, despite my disagreements with the hierarchy, history and the doctrine. I've never met any who worship the pope. My bible and yours both say (I'm paraphrasing, obviously) that those who hunger and thirst for God's righteousness will be rewarded. God bless.
