Humility is the key to all the virtues. It’s the necessary foundation for growth in all the others. If we do not know ourselves, if we cannot see our flaws and strengths (but especially our flaws), clearly, how can we grow in virtue? How can we begin to make ourselves less and God more? Indeed, in our age of social media where it’s a constant race to appear the best, to put up a front, to show others a false image (and to show ourselves a false image), cultivating humility is, perhaps, more important now than ever.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 157
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.

As Catholics, we believe in the resurrection of the body. We profess it in our creed. We're taught that to bury and pray for the dead are corporal and spiritual works of mercy. We honor the dead in our Liturgy through the rite of Christian burial. We do all of this, and more, because when Jesus Christ took on flesh for the salvation of our souls he also bestowed great dignity on our bodies. In Hope to Die: The Christian Meaning of Death and the Resurrection of the Body, Scott Hahn explores the significance of death and burial from a Catholic perspective.

As no sensible person would make a long road trip without first consulting a map, so the person intent upon gaining Heaven should first resort to a competent guide to reach that Goal of all goals. And no better guide to Heaven exists than An Introduction to the Devout Life by St. Francis de Sales (1567-1622), Doctor of the Church. It is at once easy to listen, being laid out in short sections, yet thorough, authoritative, reliable, kind and gentle - a mirror of its author. It is an audiobook, moreover, for all, because all are called to the devout life.

The Story of a Soul conveys St. Therese of Lisieux's "Little Way" of spiritual childhood - her "elevator" to Heaven, as she called it. This method was approved by Pope Pius XI as a way for all to grow in holiness through unfailing confidence and childlike delight in God's merciful love. Again and again in this audiobook, St. Therese shows us how her "Little Way" of love and trust comes straight from Sacred Scripture.

Excellent! In many ways.
This was an amazing radio drama. Of course they use some poetic license, it certainly is true to the outline and the spirit of St. Patrick’s narrative. The authors depiction of the druids is, of course exaggerated and biased, but that’s to be expected in a story about a saint. Similarly, there are a lot of prayers and God talk about Christ, but I did not feel this should be expected. I did not feel the production was evangelical, prosthelatizing, or doctrine heavy. It reflects the deep humble, Christ centered, spirituality of the ancient Irish Christians. Finally, this drama has some of the best pagan and demon confrontations I have ever heard/read.

Top Notch Everything!
I’ve been a fan of “radio shows” and “audio theater” for decades, ever since I got my first walkman. When done well, its as engrossing as a blockbuster movie. Done poorly, its embarassing and distracting. Paul McCusker has been an amazing audio producer for decades, and this is one of the best he’s ever done. Definitely on the blockbuster end of the spectrum.
The story is grand in scale, the telling is nuanced and interesting, the stage of sounds and the landscape it paints are rich and vibrant. You couldn’t ask for better performances, they’re nothing short of masterful.
If you have any interest in St. Patrick, you should give this a try!

Masterpiece
I have listened to this drama many times. The voice acting is superb. Each actor gave a solid performance. The sound design, I felt, was very rich both in terms of score and foley effects. A tapestry of sound very much a part of the story and not merely a add on. With such high production value, I felt not merely a listener but a witness to events. I had never known about nor appreciated St Patrick’s tireless work with its tremendous self sacrifice. Indeed a debt is owed him. The drama is just that, a drama. It is not a documentary so listener needs to allow for literary license. The Trials of Saint Patrick is a delight to listen to. At around 3.5 hours it is long enough to develop characters and story line, but short enough not to get bogged down. Definitely, worthwhile if you enjoy radio drama. Compared to the other Augustine Institute productions, this one is the best.
