Dear AudioVerse Friend,

…and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. - Haggai 2:7

As we contemplate the state of our world during this Easter season, it is clear that we need Jesus more than ever. That distinctive designation given Him by Haggai seems profoundly appropriate today—“the desire of all nations.”

Not to be outdone, Sister White took it one step further:

Haggai calls him “The Desire of all nations,” and we may well call him “The Desire of all ages,” even as He is “The King of ages.” - DA 17

In the preface introducing that landmark masterpiece on the life of Christ, she writes:

In the hearts of all mankind, of whatever race or station in life, there are inexpressible longings for something they do not now possess. This longing is implanted in the very constitution of man by a merciful God, that man may not be satisfied with his present conditions or attainments, whether bad, or good, or better. God desires that the human shall seek the best, and find it to the eternal blessing of his soul….It is God's design that this longing of the human heart should lead to the one who alone is able to satisfy it. The desire is of Him that it may lead to Him, the fullness and fulfillment of that desire. That fullness is found in Jesus the Christ, the Son of the Eternal God. – DA 17

How precious is the reality that there is satisfaction to be found for that deep longing of our soul!

Listen to The Desire of Ages

As you probably know, we have Spirit of Prophecy audiobooks available on AudioVerse, and they have been a popular way for our listeners to productively fill their time and their minds with the Inspired Word.

We have several versions of The Desire of Ages available to suit different listening preferences, and there are two that I want to highlight.

• The Desire of Ages, narrated by Samuel Tsoutsouvas. Narrated by a professional actor, this version has been referred to by some of our users as one of the best readings of the book that they’ve heard.
• The Desire of Ages in Living Sound, by Myers Media. A beautifully produced version of the book that includes a lovely musical score that captivates your imagination as you contemplate the life of Christ. You’ve never heard The Desire of Ages like this.

We have other versions of The Desire of Ages along with dozens of other audiobooks in our collection as well. Why not listen to them all?
