“I honestly believe that nothing has theologically formed me more in all my 15 years of studies toward the priesthood than the Gospel of John, especially through Leonardo’s audio performance. I listened to the CD – a lot. After just a year, I basically had the whole thing memorized, and I still loved it. In fact, I never got tired of it.” - Father Michael Gaitley
In this dramatic production of the most mystical of all the Gospels, the Word becomes flesh in a new and tangible way as the voice of Christ speaks directly to the heart of the listener. A beautiful Russian musical score woven throughout accentuates the text, creating an atmosphere of spiritual mystery.
The Gospel According to John is performed by Leonardo Defilippis, adapted from our live stage production and taken from Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition of the Bible.
