"I am very anxious that you should know something about the History of Jesus Christ. For everybody ought to know about Him. No one ever lived who was so good, so kind, so gentle, and so sorry for all people who did wrong, or were in any way ill or miserable, as He was.”

Charles Dickens wrote The Life of Our Lord around the same time he was finishing up David Copperfield, but to listeners raised on a diet of Dickensian wit and indignation, his rendering of Jesus' life may come as something of a surprise. You won't find even the shadow of a Micawber or a Mrs. Gamp anywhere in this brief volume; no Pecksniffs, Podsnaps, or Mulberries, either. Instead, Dickens approaches his subject with simple reverence, retelling the New Testament in a manner suitable for his own young children – who were, in fact, his only intended audience. Indeed, he strictly forbade publication of The Life of Our Lord during his lifetime and begged his sister to make sure that they "would never even hand the manuscript, or a copy of it, to anyone to take out of the house." It wasn't until the death of Dickens's last living son that the manuscript was finally published in 1934.

I stumbled across this book when looking for an accessible way to begin reading Charles Dickens. It was not only that but gave me insight into the way of Jesus Christ. The production quality is excellent. I have reread this book several times and highly recommend it.

Well done

It was very interesting to hear of Dickens’ faith in Christ in his own words. I’ve always enjoyed his books and suspected such a faith, but I had no idea how deep it went!

So glad to find this gem!

The theology was simple so that a child could understand. Jesus came to help all people and he loves all his children.

What did you like best about this story?

It was faithful to the Bible account of the story.

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

He was an excellent narrator. I could have envisioned Charles Dickens reading this to his children.

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

Yes, and I did.

Wonderful way to share the story of Jesus

The Life of Our Lord is a timeless, classic, heartwarming and beautifully told Charles Dickens short story that he wrote for his children. Children and adults alike will be fascinated.

THE LIFE OF OUR LORD by Charles Dickens is a short version of the Gospel as Dickens wrote it to his children. It definitely shows where Dickens was coming from in his other writings --doing good works and helping the poor will get you to Heaven. That was done very well in this little book. If he had acknowledged the complete divinity of Christ, and the necessity of salvation ONLY through Him, I would give this 5 stars. ( John 10:30- "I and my Father are one." & John 14:6 "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." Amongst other verses). Unfortunately, he did ignore this most necessary truth. But if you acknowledge this additional necessary truth to this little book, it was quit a nicely done summary of the Gosples.

Definitely Dickens version of the gospel

Beautiful truth!

In all transparency, in have only listened to 5 minutes of this book. In that 5 minutes, Charles Dickens manages to diminish Christ to a mere person, sidestepping completely His divinity no less than 4 times.
No mention of Mary’s divine conception.
The angels apparently told the shepherds to just go look at the child.
Jesus would grow to be so good and kind that God would love him ‘like’ a son.
We should use Jesus’ name in prayers because God would like that.
All the eye rolls for this book, I can’t bring myself to waste the next 1hour 25 minutes on it. Not at this point in my life. Maybe one day I’ll revisit it. Not today.

So theologically incorrect, I was gobsmacked
