About this listen

Was John the Baptist among the greatest people who ever lived? And if so, what does that mean for every disciple of Jesus today?

John the Baptist was Jesus’ relative, lifelong friend, and closest collaborator—of whom Jesus said, “Among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater.”

In this insightful biography, Charles Croll offers a fresh perspective on the man who introduced the Trinity to the world and prepared the way for Pentecost. With clarity and depth, John the Baptist: A Biography explores his background, message, and lasting influence—not only on Jesus’ ministry, but also on the early church.

This audiobook combines accessible storytelling with rigorous scholarship, making the life and teaching of John the Baptist vivid and relevant for modern listeners.

"Whether from a historical or a spiritual standpoint, this is a fascinating, scholarly, very inspiring account of the life and legacy of Jesus' cousin—the one he called the greatest man in the world. I couldn’t put it down and could not recommend it more." —Sandy Millar, Former Vicar of Holy Trinity Brompton, Honorary Assistant Bishop in London
