Pastor Will Weedon is a gift to the body of Christ. In simple, passionate, and Biblical language he points the reader to Christ, the author and perfecter of our faith. With wonderful quotes and explanations from Luther's Small Catechism, Pastor Weedon gives us laypeople practical advice on how we should live in light of the Gospel and our baptism. Thank, Praise, Serve, and Obey is one of those audio resources that I'll reference again and again and happy it lives downloaded to my iPhone. For example, there's a 11:00 chapter titled "Prayers for Meditation on the Eucharist" that would be terrific to listen to, pray along with early Sunday morning before receiving the Lord's Supper. And BTW, the narrator, Tim Dixon, did a super job - great inflection, not distracting, clear, strong and animated as the text dictates. A+

"It doesn't matter what WE say about Jesus, what matters is what Jesus says about Himself." (from the book's conclusion). This terrific book exposes our culture/self-made idols of Jesus and points us to the real Jesus as revealed to us in Holy Scripture. The single most influential person to walk the earth, who literally split time in two (BC/AD), asks both Peter and us all "You do YOU say that I am?" Author and Pastor Richard exposes many of the presuppositions we have about Jesus (i.e. false Christs) - how we create a Jesus that meets our own needs - comfort, bling, healing, etc - rather that the real Jesus who fulfills our greatest need - forgiveness and righteousness before God. Truly the Gospel is the best story of them all! I enjoyed how Pastor Richard used stories of encounters with different people to make his theological points - simply, clearly, and powerfully. Great read!

I subscribed to audible specifically for this title! Luther's Small and Large Catechisms are timeless truth and theology gold - as relevant and true now as they were when written 500 years ago. The SC takes only about 40 minutes to listen to and absorb. Rev. McCain's narration was balanced, clear, and strong just as you'd expect from a faithful and steadfast Lutheran pastor!

Luther's treatment of Holy Baptism and The Lord's Supper in both the SC and LC are must-listens. Brilliant. Thanks Concordia Publishing House and audible for making this title available.

"So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the Word of Christ." Romans 10:17

Descriptive and elegant narrative of the story of Jesus through the eyes and viewpoints of key witnesses. Decent but a bit flat performance with some sloppy mispronunciations.

What did you love best about Who Do You Think You Are??

Concise, engaging and well-handled treatise on Ephesians, particularly what Paul means by believers identity "in Christ". A great reminder of the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ for all believers and those exploring Christianity.

What did you like best about this story?

Pastor Mark weaves in stories of people he's ministered to that sheds "real world' insight into these timeless truths.

Have you listened to any of Daniel Butler’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

First performance by Daniel Butler. Enjoyed his narration - well-paced, good cadence and use of emphasis - easy to listen to.

Any additional comments?

Recommend to the mature Christian to young adults. Say what you will about Mark Driscoll's leadership style, his writing is wonderful and helpful in the Christian walk.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, this is a great book for anyone exploring Christian faith or for believers to know what they believe and why they believe it. It's the abridged version so it's elegant, warm and concise

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jesus! The author and perfector of our faith!

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I never read/listen to abridged versions but say that Pastor Keller did the reading himself. While not a professional "reader" per se, it's great to hear from the author himself

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No because readers should ponder and think on the wonderful proofs and arguments made in the book

Any additional comments?

Check out Timothy Keller's podcast on iTunes for free classic sermons by him at Redeemer Church in Manhattan. Life-changing, God-glorifying, remarkable.
