About this listen

The dialog is a Christian mystical work by St. Catherine of Siena (1347 - 1380), who is said to have composed it "a state of ecstasy while in dialogue with God the Father". The book is a conversation between God, the eternal father, and the human soul of St. Catherine. The dialogue relates, by the means of many metaphors, the spiritual life of humanity, emphasizing the importance of virtue, constant prayer, and obedience. The dialogues have been a classic since they were composed in Italian in the 14th-century.

St. Catherine herself was a powerful figure of her time. She was given to severe penances and is said to have manifested the stigmata on her body. She laboured personally with prayer and works of mercy throughout her life, and is famous for playing an instrumental role in healing "the great schism of the West", when there were a number of popes claiming to govern the Roman Catholic church. St. Catherine was canonized in 1461 and declared a doctor of the church in 1939.

This book is made up of five parts:

1) Introduction

2) A Treatise of Divine Providence

3) A Treatise of Discretion

4) A Treatise of Prayer

5) A Treatise of Obedience

Revelation from God

This is a hugely important book from a worthy doctor of the church, containing authentic revelation from God. What more can you ask for?

In terms of the narration, I often find the American narrators a bit grating. However this is perfect, read so that you can hear St Catherine behind the voice.
