The text highlights the role of the Word of God (in both the Old and the New Testaments) in shaping up the community of the faithful. This study is based upon the reflections of Pope Benedict XVI presented in his Apostolic Exhortation, Verbum Domini. Similar reflections appear in the teachings of the Holy Father Francis in his Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii gaudium. The influence of the Word of God upon shaping up the community of the faithful is no less significant in the Church today.
