The Rocking Chair Prophet

De: Matthew Kelly

Narrado por: Alexander Salamat

There is a voice within you. Listening to that voice is the difference be­tween happiness and misery, wonderful memories and heartrending regrets. The Rock­ing Chair Prophet is a transformational story about reclaiming that voice and the unmiti­gated joy that comes from following it.

After an unspeakable tragedy devastates his life, Daniel, a 33-year-old sub­urban man, disappears into the mountains. Years later, he reemerges filled with uncom­mon wisdom and other extraordinary gifts.

From that day on, people travel from far and wide to meet with Daniel, who sits on his rocking chair, meeting with visitors and helping them explore their deeply per­sonal questions. These questions lead to a se­ries of epic conversations that traverse life’s quintessential topics like love, suffering, health and well-being, education, work, money and things, spirituality, regrets, depression, ambi­tion, nature, parenting, midlife crisis, choic­es, our hopes and dreams, the meaning of life, and enduring friendship.

The Rocking Chair Prophet is a rich explo­ration of life and the human condition. It’s an invitation to rediscover yourself and reorient your life. Matthew Kelly has masterfully wo­ven into the story a piercing wisdom that is thought-provoking on a life-changing scale. It is stunning that one book can have some­thing so meaningful to say on so many topics. This is destined to be a book listeners return to time and again, a book that speaks to us anew in every season of life.

Golden Nuggets Found Here

In a narrative form Matthew Kelly weaves proverbial wisdom. Catch the proverbs from the rocking chair prophet.

The way in which God spoke to my reflection of my life through this great book.

Start to finish this book is an easy and quick read and has such beautiful connections to the longings in life we don’t understand yet, God clearly enables us to desire the understanding and to open our minds and heart to the answers that we hold within ourselves when we come into alignment with God and his Will.

Love this story

Very beautiful story by Kelly! Highly recommend! Make sure to have a pen and paper close by!

Not just for Christians

A well read modernization of the core values we can all use a refresher on. A must have in your library to be revisited for all the seasons of your life.

Unexpected!!

I was totally unaware of how the opening of this book came at me! It knocked me for a loop! Having read many of Matthew Kelly's books in the past & noting that he was not narrating this one should have given me a clue..but I was still flabergasted! I'll leave it at that so as not to have to leave a SPOILER ALERT!..however; the turnaround was very clever & true to form of the author. Bravo!

This book moved me!

I rarely try to find time to squeeze in listening to a book. In a line at the grocery store. A short drive. I couldn’t stop listening to this book. Well done - the story and the way of wax read. I absolutely loved it !!

Amazing!

I found this book stirring, thought provoking, and deeply moving. I will listen to it again and probably again after that because I need to hear it and ponder the meaning these words have for me.
