Would you consider the audio edition of The Autobiography of George Müller to be better than the print version?

The book is wonderfully read, making what could be a dull diary very compelling instead.

What did you like best about this story?

Mr. Muller was obviously a detail person, noting each hae'penny given to his work. Interspersed with the detail is a narrative of stated need and the resulting supply in answer "to prayer to God alone," as he says over and over. These matches of need and supply are astounding and very encouraging. At the beginning of the book, one learns that the young George Muller was quite a scoundren of the lying and cheating and stealing sort. While that narrative is interesting, I needed to hear it only once. Am skipping those early chapters on subsequent readings.

What does Derek Perkins bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Mr. Perkins has added personality to words on the page. I bought a second book on Mr. Muller, with a different reader, and had a problem making the transition to a new voice for the story. Mr. Perkins has become the "real deal" personna of Mr. Muller.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

At times, I have to turn the speakers off to revel in the events presented. Am on my fifth time through, and everything still seems fresh and new.

Any additional comments?

For anyone considering a life of dependent faith, this text is our Mother Ship. It's scripture in action, and an unbeatable testimony of what trust in God yields. Highly recommended.

Easy to get into brain overload on this one

The content is very valuable and I plan to review it making checklists for the route to successful online marketing. Am thinking it will be beneficial to have a paper version, particularly for understanding the graphics. Verbal description of an illustration was cumbersome to understand. Did not particularly like the reading voice which was very correct and formal. Not presented conversationally at all and, at times, it seemed a bony accusatory finger was aimed in my direction. Will definitely give the principles presented more attention but probably in print.

Loved the listening and learning experience. Planning to do exactly what he says preparation wise, and have already ordered the next resources for a formal start. Great info. Connect with his fB page for many videos. Feel like I just got some wind under my wings and have a course to follow. Watch my smoke!
