With God You Are Never Alone

The Great Papal Addresses

By: Pope Benedict XVI

Narrated by: Jeremy Clyde

Bloomsbury presents With God You Are Never Alone by Pope Benedict XVI, read by Jeremy Clyde.

For the first time, the 10 great speeches of Benedict XVI's pontificate are collected. From the first homily delivered as soon as he became pope to the last public hearing, these speeches reveal the depth of his theological reflection in simple language that has nourished the faith of millions.

Since Pope Benedict XVI died he has had a remarkably good press. Indeed many have argued that there is a natural evolution between Pope Benedicts mission and that of his successor Pope Francis.

Dubbed and dismissed by many as an unrepentant traditionalist, we now see a man of profound intelligence and wisdom on matters relating not just to religion but to what is not termed 'The Common Good'. It is thus more important to read these texts carefully and with measure and not in garbled versions dreamt up by the Press. With this in mind, Benedict will be seen as an inspiring thinker who has a lot to teach us now and the future.

Included here are his speech on visiting Auschwitz, his address to the House of Commons and House of Lords, his address to the German Bundestag in Berlin, his address to the United Nations, his notorious Regensburg speech and his speech when he finally announced his resignation.

Critic reviews

“a worthy tribute to a vital figure in the history of the Catholic church.” (Publishers Weekly)

Awesome

I don’t typically write reviews but this was phenomenal. I give thanks to God for Pope Benedict. All his writings help one grow in faith, hope and charity. This narration was top notch - one of the absolute best (listened on 1.2 speed).

Pope Benedict XVI

Pope Benedict XVI was so incredibly brilliant and devoted. To hear his words translated in his addresses is a privilege. An amazing book with a wonderful narrator. Benedict XVI you are missed.

Lucid, soothing and reassuring…

Benedict XVI confronts the problems that hound our world, and invites us to see that, behind it all is a merciful and trustworthy God who walks with the world that is trying to find its way back to him. This book is a trip to Emmaus for those looking for God…

renewing and uplifting

full of encouragement and hope for every pilgrim of faith who sincerely seek God's Kingdom
