This Present Darkness

By: Frank E. Peretti

Narrated by: Richard Ferrone

Ashton is a typical small town where everyone knows everyone else and the pace of life is predictable. No one would suspect that Ashton has drawn powerful demonic beings to it. Planning to gain control of the town - and eventually the world - these evil forces are looking for allies. When Pastor Young and the town's newspaper reporter begin to discover this dark plan, they turn to God for guidance, but others have already succumbed to temptation. As angelic forces rally against the demons, breathtaking visions of spiritual warfare fill each fast-paced chapter.

Richard Ferrone's dramatic narration highlights these powerful illustrations of the strength of prayer and faith. There are more than two million copies of This Present Darkness in print.

Scary!!!

But so so good.I was blown away🔥this book is a must read. The spiritual world is real

Enjoyable and inspirational

Inspirational and moving. It’s fiction but reminded me of the importance of prayer. Daniel prayed. We Christian’s need to remember that we are fighting spiritual battles and we need to pray

Great Book Great Read

I loved the way this book was written. It captures the fantasy world within the context of Christianity.

Christ is King!

Easily the best book I've found on the plus membership thus far. Not just the best Christian book, but the best book.

Classic good vs. evil.

I wasn't even looking for a Christian title... honestly I didn't even realize Christian themes were still platformed by any major corporations. I think this book might have just found me when I needed it most.

I only have one complaint, and it's not enough to knock a star off because the term was only used once, but the oxymoron,
"_____-Christian values" is enough to turn your gut and make you physically ill when you hear it smack in the middle of such a special and inspirational story.

If you get to that part and are tempted to turn it off, I promise you it's worth it to stay the course.

Great Read

This is a good one to listen to over and over
Give you a real understanding of prayer

Good Book

Makes you stop and think what if and maybe could it be possible, In our minds we all believe in god and angles so is there demons out they’re also ?????,,

Christian Stephen King

This is an awesome thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat! I would say it’s a real page tuner, but it is also n audible. Enjoy! You won’t regret it!!

Spellbinding performance!!!

Could not put it down!!! Although it is fictional, it teaches you so much - a must read for all!!

The power of prayer against things unseen.

excellent visualization of the battle that goes on for our souls and how circumstances and events that happen to us are more often than not a strategic play for our souls and the souls of those connected to us. It also was a great depiction of the power of prayer and no matter how insignificant we may seem our prayers are not and we play a significant role in the battle against good and evil.

Still incredibly relevant

Aside from the mentions of actual film and typewriters, this book could be set in 2024. I read it when it came out and found the listen perhaps even more compelling. This book contains timeless truths and reminds us now more than ever how much we need to pray.
