Canonized on June 16, 2002, Padre Pio of Pietrelcina (1887-1968) was a Capuchin monk and mystic whose life was marked with miracles and wonders, but who said that his only desire was “to be a poor friar who prays.” In this intimate biography, you will see the results of this humble Capuchin's prayers and discover for yourself the source of his great hope.

Story
It took nearly two millennia for the enemies of the Catholic Church to realize they could not successfully attack the Church from the outside. Indeed, countless nemeses from Nero to Napoleon succeeded only in creating sympathy and martyrs for our Catholic Faith. That all changed in the mid-19th century, when clandestine societies populated by Modernists and Marxists hatched a plan to subvert the Catholic Church from within. Their goal: to change Her doctrine, Her liturgy, and Her mission.

Story
The City of God is one of the most important works of Christian history and philosophy ever written. The writings of St. Augustine are as intriguing to the casual reader as it is to Christian researchers. St. Augustine's work provides insight into Western thought and the development of Western civilizations. The City of God provides the reader with an artful contrast between earthy cities and those in heaven as a representation of the eternal struggle between good and evil. The City of God was originally penned in the early 5th century as a response to the prevalent belief that Christianity was to blame for the fall of Rome. St. Augustine is known as one of the most influential Fathers of the Catholic Church. Born November 13, 354, Augustine would eventually be recognized as a Saint by the Catholic Church, the Eastern Christian Church, and the Anglican Communion.

Angels and saints. Catholics tend to think of them as different from the rest of us. They're cast in plaster or simpering on a holy card, performing miracles with superhero strength, or playing a harp in highest heaven.
Yet they are very near to us in every way. In this lively audiobook, Scott Hahn dispels the false notions and urban legends people use to keep the saints at a safe distance. The truth is that Jesus Christ has united heaven and earth in a close communion. Drawing deeply from Scripture, Dr. Hahn shows that the hosts of heaven surround the earthly Church as a "great cloud of witnesses".

The Story of a Soul is the autobiography of Thérèse of Lisieux. It was first published on September 30, 1898, a year to the day after her death from tuberculosis at the age of 24, on September 30, 1897. The book was a single volume formed from three distinct manuscripts - manuscripts of different length, written at different times, addressed to different people, and differing from one another in character. The work of unifying these disparate manuscripts was carried out by Pauline, the sister of Thérèse.

A"must" for anyone in search of deep life meaning
- By chris on 27-03-15
Summary
Though the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima took place almost a hundred years ago, Our Lady's call to prayer and penance for the salvation of souls and peace in the world is as relevant now as when first delivered to three Portuguese peasant children in 1917.
At the peak of the First World War, Our Lady warned of another worldwide conflict, the rise and spread of Communism, and a terrible persecution of the Church unless people repented of their sins and returned to God. She also requested devotion to her Immaculate Heart and a special consecration of Russia.
Much of what Our Lady of Fatima said was revealed soon after her appearances, but the third and final "secret", which was not a message but a prophetic vision seen by the children, was not unveiled by the Vatican until 2000. Pope John Paul II, who read the third secret while recovering from the attempt upon his life in 1981, believed the vision signified the sufferings the Church had endured in the twentieth century.
Because of the prophetic nature of her messages, Our Lady of Fatima has been the subject of much controversy and speculation. In this audiobook, Father Andrew Apostoli carefully analyzes the events that took place in Fatima and clears up lingering questions and doubts about their meaning. He also challenges the reader to hear anew the call of Our Lady to prayer and sacrifice, for the world is ever in need of generous hearts willing to make reparation for those in danger of losing their way to God.

A Message For Our Time
When the Mother of Jesus decides to visit we do well to take heed.In a most accessible way "Fatima for Today" provides us with the means to understand the Will of God for our times. To unite or lives with His through prayer and the Eucharist. To recognize the precarious position the world is in and to stop, take note and redirect our lives to Christ through the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Interesting topic poorly executed
The Fatima phenomenon is fascinating but this flabby manuscript, so badly in need of an editor, is filled with irrelevance and repetition and lacks any critical thinking about the third secret. The reading is slow and monotonous and it often seems like the narrator is seeing the text for the first time.

A good story, but...
full disclosure: I'm not a Catholic and not ever likely to become one. Having said that, that doesn't mean that I don't believe the Fatima message, and in Marian Apparitions in general. With this in mind, I found this book provided great details of the Fatima event, and details not normally known by the casual observer. However, I have a real problem with the apologist approach by the author, and the horrible narration of Bernard M. Collins. In fact, the narration is probably the only thing really wrong with this audio book. I can handle the Catholic apologist approach Andrew Apostoli takes. It's to be expected by one devoted to his church. What else is he supposed to do? His audience is expected to be mostly Catholic with the same beliefs. However, Collins narration is a different story entirely. When listening to the book, I thought I was listening to someone in an enunciation contest. It was as if Collins was determined to pronounce each and every word with precision and without error. It got to the point that it became a distraction. There was no free flow in his reading. No error, or allowance for regional dialect and pronunciation. When one listens to his reading, it;s as if one is listening to a machine PRONOUNCE. EACH. WORD. DELIBERATELY and without a natural punctuation. It's just not a pleasant way to listen to an audio book. Overall, I would recommend the book, but, not the audio book.

THE Most Influential Book
I could not stop listening. Very well written, narrated and substantiated. LOVED IT! I was inspired to read this after seeing the extraordinary movie in 2020 titled "Fatima". I did not fully know this account and as devout Catholic took special interest. I found this book quite randomly on Audible, or now I can say guided by the Holy Spirir. Not only did I enjoy the movie and book tremendously, but my faith increased and I now find myself praying more, including the Rosary almost daily. The beauty of this is that my heart and soul enjoy it very much as it's a spiritual wealth I did not previously have at this level. Any Christian of any denomination would feel similar closeness to God and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I think the priest/author could have left out some minor judgement comments in the beginning but it did not deter my enthusiasm as it did not continue throughout. I highly recommend it and hope to visit Fatima in Portugal.

I need to buy the book to read myself. Unfortunately, the narrator’s stumbling over and mispronunciation of names like Lucia (one of the Fatima children, so a major figure here!) and Mehmet Ali Agca and Pope John Paul II’s secretary really take away from the listening experience.

True to the real story of the Fatima apparitions.
Any additional comments?
Although the book is true to the actual Fatima story keep in mind that the appariton contradicts actual scripture with every other statement.
