St. Benedict: Monk, Mystic, Exorcist

By: Catholic Shop

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Follow one of the most revered saints in history as he embarks on an extraordinary journey through earthly trials, diabolical attacks, and heavenly triumphs. St. Benedict: Monk, Mystic, Exorcist is the riveting true story of one man's radical faith and spiritual battles in the ashes of the Roman Empire.

Benedict of Nursia gave up a privileged life of nobility to seek solitude in a remote cave. After three years of wrestling with unseen forces and relying on the good will of strangers for sustenance, he emerged as a spiritual leader.

Known as a man of miracles, visions, exorcisms, and prophecies, Benedict’s one-man monastic movement grew into a community of devotees — as well as a legion of jealous enemies, some of whom plotted to kill the humble hermit.

Saint Benedict: Monk, Mystic, Exorcist weaves together remarkable threads of monasticism, mystical experiences, prayer, and spiritual combat to paint a vivid portrait of an enigmatic man whose legacy continues to inspire the world today.

Very informative

Informative for begginners, good mix of history and spiritual teachings. Good and easy listening overall.

A great overview of Benedict’s life work and treasure

This is an excellent book that is brief and gives a concerted overview of the essential elements of Saint Benedict and Benedictine monasticism.

Amazing saint

Dislike the voice-though clear, it’s monotone and tired. It’s hard to pay attention to the voice.

Narration Horrific

Please get a human to narrated. It was simply horrible to listen to. It needs a human life.
