About this listen

The Story of a Soul conveys St. Therese of Lisieux's "Little Way" of spiritual childhood - her "elevator" to Heaven, as she called it. This method was approved by Pope Pius XI as a way for all to grow in holiness through unfailing confidence and childlike delight in God's merciful love.

Again and again in this audiobook, St. Therese shows us how her "Little Way" of love and trust comes straight from Sacred Scripture.

This audiobook belongs in every Catholic home, for Pope St. Pius X called St. Therese of Lisieux the "greatest Saint of modern times".

Highly rated for:

The Autobiography Of St. Therese Of Lisieux, Known As The "little Flower", Is Praised For Its Inspiring Story, Profound Spiritual Lessons, And Remarkable Simplicity. Many Reviewers Found Her Powerful Autobiography And Beautiful Spiritual Masterpiece Deeply Moving. However, The Narration Was Criticized By Some For Having A Childish, Condescending, Or Foolish Tone That Detracted From The Profound Content. The Main Themes Explored In The Book Are St. Therese's Profound Love For God, Her Humility, Her Perspective On Suffering, Her Spiritual Growth, And Her Journey Towards Sainthood. Overall, The Story Is Seen As A Powerful Testimony Of Love And A Great Lesson For Spiritual Growth, Despite Issues With The Narration Style For Some Listeners.

Food for the soul

A book so exquisite it should be read again and again. Don’t read - contemplate. It never ages.

Well Read

The Saint's innocent thoughts, love of God and of man causes me to ponder, like looking into an beautiful stary sky with the stars representing her profound love. I want to love like she did, but how can I love so purely? Saint Therese's love humbles me.

Beautiful story.

This is a classic book that every Catholic should read. Unfortunately, the narrator over-acted and was overly dramatic which made it difficult to enjoy at times.

Beautiful story— definitely one l will redo many times

The Little Flower is brought to life in this recording. I usually listen to books at 1.3 speed. This book l listened to a 1.0. It enthralled me. The story is excellent and the performance is flawless, clear and exceptionally well paced. A MUST for any Christian library!

Inspiration indeed

St. Therese of the Infant Jesus was a beautiful humble soul. She demonstrates humility and love and self-sacrifice for the love of God. I thank God for the gift of being able to know about her. She has inspired me to be more Holy.
