Christian audiobooks
Unabridged audiobooks of the accounts on this site — men and women writing about the turn their own lives took, read end to end with chapter markers. Each one is a file you download and keep: no subscription, no app, nothing that expires. The narration is synthetic, which we say on every page, and the original text behind each reading is public domain and linked free.

1930 · Johannes Avetaranian · 9 hours 19 minutes · $10.99
The Story of a Muslim Who Became a Christian
Johannes Avetaranian · 1930
Published as Geschichte eines Mohammedaners, der Christ wurde
The longest reading here, and the only one of a text that has never had a widely available English edition: an Ottoman mullah who claimed descent from Muhammad, telling his own story, finished after his death by the friend who buried him. Our translation is what is being read.

1884 · Imad-ud-din Lahiz · 41 minutes · $3.99
A Muslim Brought to Christ
Imad-ud-din Lahiz · 1884
Published as A Mohammedan Brought to Christ (1884)
Short enough to finish in a sitting, and the single most cited first-person account of a Muslim conversion in 19th-century India — a Sunni scholar who set out to study Christianity in order to refute it.
Questions about these audiobooks
- What Christian audiobooks can I listen to here?
- Unabridged narrations of first-person Christian conversion accounts — the same clean editions we typeset and sell as ebooks, read end to end with chapter markers. The catalogue is small and deliberately so: every title is an account someone wrote about their own life, not a biography written about them.
- Are these audiobooks read by a human narrator?
- No. The narration is synthetic — a text-to-speech voice, not a human reading. We say so on every book page, on the buy button and on the receipt, because it is the kind of thing a listener should know before paying rather than after. It is why these cost a few dollars instead of twenty.
- Do I need a subscription or an app?
- Neither. You buy the file and download it — an M4B with chapter markers, which plays in Apple Books, VLC, Bookplayer, Smart AudioBook Player and most podcast apps. There is no account to keep, nothing expires, and nothing is streamed. If you lose the file, the download link on your receipt still works.
- Can I get these Christian audiobooks free?
- Not from us, and we would rather say so plainly. The underlying texts are public domain and we link a free scan of the original on every book page, so you can always read one without paying. The narration is work we paid to produce on top of that, as is the translation behind it in some cases, and that is what the price covers.
- How long are they?
- It varies with the book, and both extremes are represented: some of these accounts are full-length memoirs that run nine hours or more, and others are pamphlets their authors wrote in an afternoon and take well under an hour. The runtime is listed next to every title above, before you buy rather than after.
