Publisher's summary

The Desire of Ages lays out the life of Christ so intimately that the listener will feel as if he or she were walking the paths of Galilee with the master relaying a parable, or sitting on the Mount of Olives watching the agony of our Lord. At its heart, the book is devotional saying to the listener that Jesus Christ fulfills the deepest longings of the human soul. "Without distinction of age, or rank, or nationality, or religious privilege, all are invited to come unto Him and live."

Wow, what a book

So much to learn and so many opportunities to be carried away into another world where internal changes can take place.
Anything on this subject is worth experiencing and there are many who have written but I found this to be the fullest mental movie I've ever seen. The narration could be improved by holding the same level of sound from the beginning of a sentence to the end. Quite often though, the first word was the loudest and then the voice fades. Not so good to try and fall asleep to and I love listening to this subject while I'm entering dreamsville too. Wow, what a writer !

Best story commentary on the life of Christ

This is a great commentary on the life of Christ in story format. Great insights. I also really enjoy the narrators voice. Definitely will get another book that she narrates.

Great book that discribe the life of Christ

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

Yes. This book will give you a good insight of who Jesus is, and His work while He was on earth, and the work He is doing for us right now.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Desire of Ages?

Jesus dying for us.

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

She brings out the book in a more forceful manner. She let the characters jump out at us.

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

This book made me become emotional at time, but brought me closer to Christ.

Any additional comments?

This is a great book if you want to learn about the life, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus.
