The Imitation of Christ (TAN Classics Edition)

By: Thomas Á Kempis

Narrated by: Kevin O'Brien

After the Bible, The Imitation of Christ by Thomas Kempis is the favorite book of Catholics throughout the world and has been the spiritual guide of the saints since it first appeared in 1418. And of the English editions, none can equal this inspiring translation of Bishop Richard Challoner.

This book speaks to the soul of every true Christian, reminding him of the fleeting nature of earthly joy as opposed to the eternity of happiness with God. Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange asserted that the true mysticism of which it speaks is accessible to all, if they are willing to follow the way of humility, the cross, continual prayer, and docility to the Holy Ghost.

Now you will never be without the book that St. Thérèse of Lisieux loved and knew by heart.

Essential

This book has helped make Saints for hundreds of years and must be listened to again and again.

good audio program

Having to work 7 days a week I don't have the time to actually sit there and meditate on books like this. I have no choice but to listen to this on audio, it's good to have when you have nothing else going on and you want to bring your thoughts back on God.
A very good Audiobook to have when you need it.

narrator terrible.

this is a fantastic book but the narrator has made a mess of it. I would suggest another version of this book with a different narrator.
