My outstanding Catholic Grand Parents, Ben and Anna Greve, taught me Biblical morals and fundamental Catholic Christian teaching starting at 2 or 3 years of age. I am eternally appreciative to them for their Biblical teaching. Archbishop Fulton Sheen continued this life changing teaching. You, your children and grand children will appreciate Archbishop Fulton Sheen teaching them sound Biblical principles that will bless and enrich every life every day, and to trust God, using scriptures, creative examples and stories to help all to be blessed. This Life Is Worth Living audio book uses original and creative approaches to teach young and old alike the Biblical principles of trusting and following our Lord and Savior Jesus,. I whole heatedly recommend this audio book for 10 year old to 100 year olds.
