Story
Germany, 1942. Franciscan friar Anton Starzmann is stripped of his place in the world when his school is seized by the Nazis. He relocates to a small German hamlet to wed Elisabeth Herter, a widow who seeks a marriage - in name only - to a man who can help raise her three children. Anton seeks something too - atonement for failing to protect his young students from the wrath of the Nazis. But neither he nor Elisabeth expects their lives to be shaken once again by the inescapable rumble of war.

This is a great read! I couldn't put it down as I wanted to hear more of this man and his family during the time WW II. The historical and Authors notes have a profound insight to current affairs in America today. A must read.

Great historical story of World War II
Reviewed: 11-19-24
A very excellent read. To have the view of two women that lived throughout the start of the World War 2 as young girls to the end as young women and then into their later years. Very good narrative. Must read again!

Great novel filled with intrigue and suspense. The narration by George Guidall was spot on for me and kept me coming back for more. I will be moving on to the next book, Sea Wolf. Can't wait to start it.

Story
Fr. Robert Barron's comprehensive work goes straight to the core of the Catholic faith. He first examines the foundations of Christ's incarnation, life and ministry, and then works through the essentials of the Catholic tradition: from sacraments, worship and prayer, to Mary and the saints, and on to salvation, heaven and hell. Throughout this epic journey, Fr. Barron uses art, literature, personal stories, Scripture, theology, philosophy and history to present a complete picture of the Church to the world.

Bishop Robert Barron brings forth the Catholic faith as we should know it. This is an exceptional listen. Every Catholic should take the time to listen to this book. I will come back to this often and take notes . Bishop Barron's narration of Catholicism is easy to listen to. Highly recommended to everyone.

This is a very good book to listen to. The progression of his own spritual and physical life is capturing. I will listen to this again and recommend to others as well.
