Gabriele Amorth

This title uses virtual voice narration
About this listen
Divided into thirty-one chapters, one for each day of the month, the author breaks open the Gospels, particularly Matthew and Luke. As a biblical exegete, Fr. Amorth carefully analyzes the narratives of the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Nativity of Christ, the visit of the Shepherds and Magi, the Presentation in the Temple, the Flight into Egypt, and the return of the Holy Family to Nazareth. From here, Mary lives in "silence" and "hiddenness," where she “kept all these things in her heart”; that is, her knowledge of what is coming – the "Hour," revealed at the Wedding in Cana, when she will witness the death of Christ on the cross and receive her role as Mother of all. But she is also the only one who knew what was coming after Good Friday, the only one of Christ’s followers who had hope on Good Saturday.
In addition to the Scriptures, Fr. Amorth explores ancient Marian titles and designations such as the New Eve, Ever-Virgin, the Mother of God, God-bearer (Theotokos), and All Holy. He explains the relatively recent Marian dogmas (with ancient roots) of the Immaculate Conception and Assumption. He also looks at popular devotions, such as keeping Holy Saturdays, Marian apparitions, the Rosary, and even what it means to be consecrated to her.
Intended to be catechetical, a series of reflections follows each chapter. Written in simple and clear language, the book is spiritually and theologically rich. Though the focus is on Mary, Fr. Amorth frequently reminds the reader that devotion to the Mother is to better know the Son. Published originally in Italian as Il Vangelo di Maria (The Gospel of Mary), this book is Fr. Amorth at his best.
About the author:
Fr. Gabriele Amorth was born in Modena, Italy, on May 1, 1925. He was ordained a Catholic priest in 1954 as a member of the Society of St. Paul, the congregation founded by Giacomo Alberione in 1914. He worked for thirty years as a journalist and editor for the Italian magazine Familia Cristiana and for the monthly Madre di Dio, for which he wrote numerous Marian articles. After working as a journalist, he was appointed an exorcist of the Diocese of Rome in June 1986, under the tutelage of Candido Amantini. In 1990, along with five other priests, he founded the International Association of Exorcists and was president until his retirement in 2000. Over the course of his career, Father Amorth is believed to have performed over 60,000 exorcisms. His work in demonology and exorcism, combined with his experience in media, gained him international recognition. As such, he became one of the most prominent figures in the Catholic Church in the modern era.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching; it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations.

My title explains itself. But it's misleading. There are more than 40 reasons. Each of my reasons is an independent point, so I have not organized this book by a succession of chapters or headings. After all, most people only remember a few big ideas or separate points after reading or listening to a book. I've never heard anyone say "Oh, that was a good continuous-process-of-logically-ordered-argumentation" but I've often heard people say, "Oh, that was a good point." And back to my main point: "Why are you a Catholic?" is a good question. A good question deserves a good answer.

The Diary is an amazing narrative that chronicles the experiences of a simple, uneducated Polish nun who received a special call shortly before the outbreak of World War II. Our Lord appeared to her and instructed her to spread the message of his Divine Mercy to all, especially in our current age, which is full of so much distress and worldliness. The message of the Divine Mercy is that God loves us all of us. And He wants us to recognize that his mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon him with trust, receive his mercy, and let it flow through us to others.

Story
In the late 19th century, Father Charles Arminjon, a priest from the mountains of southeastern France, assembled his flock in the town cathedral to preach a series of conferences to help them turn their thoughts away from this life's mean material affairs - and toward the next life's glorious spiritual reward. His wise and uncompromising words deepened in them the spirit of recollection that all Christians must have: the abiding conviction that heavenly aims, not temporal enthusiasms, must guide everything we think, say, and do.

Story
"We are to love God for Himself, because of a twofold reason; nothing is more reasonable, nothing is more profitable." On Loving God is first a touching description of God's love for us as unmistakenly demonstrated in the death of His Son. Second, it is a call for us to joyfully respond to God like the child who runs and embraces her father whose love is sure. As St. Bernard writes, "They love all the more because they know themselves to be loved so exceedingly."

Story
Padre Pio was born in a rural, farming village. He entered a Franciscan order centered on harsh penance and radical poverty. He lived more than fifty years in a mountain hermitage. And yet, everyone has heard his name. But few know who Padre Pio truly was. In his latest work, Bret Thoman has pierced the life of Padre Pio in a novel way: through a pilgrimage to all eleven Capuchin friaries and sites where the stigmatic saint lived. With Pietrelcina as his base, Thoman sets out each morning to the "Convents of Padre Pio." He accompanies the reader into these special places with captivating ...

Story
Padre Pio of Pietrelcina is perhaps the single most extraordinary saint in the modern history of the Catholic Church. His heart was pierced. He carried the wounds of Christ on his hands, feet, and side for half a century. He communicated with his spiritual sons and daughters through bilocation and mystical perfume. He read the souls of his penitents. He offered his suffering so that others might be healed. He built one of the most significant hospitals in Southern Italy. Most importantly, Padre Pio wanted others to be redeemed. In Bret Thoman’s latest book, he has created a fresh, new ...

Very educational. However, I was looking forward learning more about Mother Mary from private revelations. I felt it sure could use them.

Needs a human touch. You cannot replace a human voice for audio books. It looses the purpose of feeling the author’s message.
