Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Grover Gardner's narration is impeccable, his tone measured yet passionate, perfectly complementing the intellectual journey through Miles' dense material. The story unfolds with a blend of scholarly insights and storytelling flair, making for an engaging listen despite its academic nature. However, the pacing can feel uneven at times, with some sections moving too quickly to fully absorb the complexities discussed. Despite this, Christ remains a compelling audiobook that rewards close attention and multiple listens. It's not just about following Jesus; it’s about understanding the world in which he lived—a profound experience that transcends mere religious exploration.
