About This Audiobook
Fr. Jesse Maingot’s *How to Be His* isn’t another vague call to ‘grow in faith’—it’s a tactical, day-by-day manual for those who want to stop *talking* about Eucharistic devotion and start *living* it. Structured as a 33-day dedication (a nod to St. Louis de Montfort’s Marian consecration), this audiobook cuts through pious abstraction with blunt, pastoral directives: *How* do you adore when distraction gnaws? *What* does it mean to let Christ ‘consume’ you, not just the other way around? The prose is muscular, free of saccharine platitudes, and Donny Baarns’ narration matches it—his voice carries the gravelly urgency of a retreat master who’s seen too many lukewarm Catholics to waste time on niceties.
What sets this apart from the shelf of Eucharistic revival titles is its *actionability*. Each day pairs theological meat (think: patristic quotes, Thomistic insights) with brutal self-examination—no fluff, no filler. Baarns’ delivery leans into the text’s rhythm: slow and deliberate during prayers, clipped and challenging during the ‘hard truths’ sections. It’s an audiobook that demands engagement, not passive listening. Ideal for the listener who’s tired of feeling spiritually stagnant but skeptical of yet another ‘program’—this one feels less like a devotional and more like a spiritual *workout*, where grace is the protein and your will is the muscle being torn down to rebuild stronger.
