About this listen

First published in 1867, Unspoken Sermons Series I, II, and III is a series of sermons by George MacDonald, a Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister. He was a pioneering figure in the field of modern fantasy literature and the mentor of fellow writer Lewis Carroll.

MacDonald's theology, though sprinkled liberally throughout his reasonably significant number of books, is perhaps nowhere more noticeable than in Unspoken Sermons. These sermons, though by no means among the most popular of MacDonald's work, have had a theological influence from their first impression. That influence is presumably most notable in C.S. Lewis who called MacDonald "my master" and of Unspoken Sermons said, "My own debt to this book is almost as great as one man can owe to another."

I came to read this book because of my love for C.S. Lewis. I leave with a respect for men who take the time and do the work of understanding the true nature of God and life.

Very deep thoughts

MacDonald offers a convincing Biblically-based and logically sound rebutable of many of the heresies that have crept into 'orthodox' Christianity. It contains powerful explanations of why eternal conscious torment, substitutionary atonement, and imputed righteousness, to name just a few of the sacred cows that he slaughters in this masterpiece, are truly 'doctrines of demons'. I was especially impacted to hear his scholarly treatment of the 'spirit of adoption' mistranslation and what that means to the heart of a child.

This is essential listening to any serious follower of Christ. The narration and presentation is exceptionally well done.

The antidote to 'orthdox' heresy

I can't handle the "Gollum" voice when reading quotes, totally unnecessary, not fitting and really ruins the listen.

Disappointed with the reader.

One of my favorite books ever. Almost unlistenable because of the narrator. So distracting and when speaking in the second person the voices he uses are laughable. You can find an audible recording available of the first part of this book with qualified narration.

Horrible narration

The reader had a marshmallow in his mouth. He gave great effort and I appreciate the attempt.

Macdonald’s brilliance

The author's concepts are worth five stars.

The narrator's weird voice when reading other people's lines are worth one star.

Justice calls for a one star rating here, but mercy delivers a three star rating overall. 

George Macdonald's concepts are five stars!
