Too many musical breaks

Between each short ‘essay’ you have to listen to the same long musical intro and extro

Doesn't work as an audiobook, but good content

The content of this audiobook is good, and taken individually there is a lot of useful food for thought in each of the individual sections, but I must admit I really struggled to get through this. I think I would have got a lot more from it in printed book format - because each section was only five(ish) minutes long, if I was distracted for a minute I'd missed a significant amount of the section.

A godly, honest, transparent outlook and sharing of our fathers’ faith. One devotional could last in your heart, mind, and soul for a long time. To God Be The Glory!

brilliant

This is an amazing devotional stylebook. Probably the best one I've ever read. I love the nod to all the reformed theologians I know stand on their shoulders.

Wonderful Truths for Meditation

I put this on while falling asleep and every time I woke up throughout the night I caught something wonderful from the Faith of Our Fathers. The separate readings are the perfect length for a daily devotional to coincide with Bible Study and prayer.

CHRIST IS EVERYTHING!!!

I love starting my day off with the beautiful cello sounds of Spurgeon’s faith of our fathers. It sets me off with a sense of well being in Christ. I would have really loved to meet C. H. Spurgeon in person. What a wonderful testament to the heart of our majesty in HEAVEN. CANT WAIT TO MEET HIM AS WELL. LOVE TO ALL IN CHRIST JESUS. Amen! And AMEN.

Great Information

Amazing collection of works. His voice is very soothing. Definitely something to keep close. I would not replace the Bible, with this, but definitely great information. I have recommended this to several people. Can't wait to start the 2nd one

perspective

It is quite fascinating to hear the perspective of several teachers of christianity from earlier times and to see how valid their words are today.
