Our Thoughts:

In our homeschool, we like to listen to audio books or music while we work on projects.  The past few days we have been listening to Captain Bayley’s Heir.  I really like when the audio drama starts, there are two characters talking and one is mentioning that he hasn’t done anything for God.  The other character replies “Being a Christian isn’t about what you’ve done for him, but what God has done for you”.  The CD beginning in that way was definitely a strong start.  I really appreciate that these are clean and with good morals for my children.

When I first listen to one of these dramas from Heirloom Audio Productions, I’m always amazed at everything that is happening.  It’s not just listening to someone read a book.  It’s like you are there, listening to something unfold.  You’ll hear everything from crickets chirping to floorboards squeaking, to fire crackling, and more.  It really triggers emotions with how well it’s done.

My kids all enjoyed listening to Captain Bayley’s Heir and are eager for more of G.A. Henry’s adventures to be released on audio!
