Modern Prophets and Other Sketches by Pansy audiobook.
Genre: religion
In Modern Prophets and Other Sketches, beloved 19th-century author Pansy (Isabella Alden) turns her sharp eye and warm heart on the dramas of everyday Christian living. This collection gathers a series of brief, vivid sketches - part short story, part character study - in which ordinary people are tested by small decisions that reveal large loyalties. Across parlors, prayer meetings, and bustling streets, men and women wrestle with pride, gossip, fashionable religion, and quiet discouragement, while others step forward as unexpected 'modern prophets' - voices of conscience who speak plain truth when it is easiest to stay silent. Pansy blends gentle humor with moral urgency, showing how faith can be performed for an audience or practiced in costly, private obedience. Each sketch stands on its own, yet together they form a portrait of a community learning what it means to love neighbors, honor convictions, and live consistently when comfort, reputation, and belonging are on the line. Clear, compassionate, and searching, these stories invite listeners to examine their own motives and to recognize courage in the most familiar places.
