Dramatic Audio CD - Hedge of Thorns

Hedge of Thorns
From Janice Robinson of Goodman, Missouri on 4/16/2019.

I love the story. It shows how friends can lead you off the good path on to a bad path. It takes good friends to get us back on the good path. I would recommend this to young adults.

Great Principals!
From Anonymous of Yucaipa, California on 3/28/2019.

We all enjoyed listening to this audio drama on a trip home. Our children were excited to hear another Lamplighter story with characters like them. They even requested a replay moments later.

Great Story!
From Amber of Wapakoneta, Ohio on 3/21/2019.

Love the audio books from Lamplighter! Great for listening as a family on a long car ride.

Wonderfully Engaging! Recommended!
From Edward Wiggers of Ajax, Ontario on 9/26/2018.

Highly recommended. Wonderful story, several characters. Deals with life lessons and hardships and how God works out a hedge of protection for us despite our perceived troubles. The Treasure of the Secret Cove is also recommended.

Wonderful Stories and Great Lessons
From Johanna Smoll of Elida, Ohio on 12/11/2017.

Simply stated, you can't go wrong with Lamplighter Theater... From the youngest to the oldest, my family absolutely loves them all! Great stories with a message. They have done an outstanding job on every single one! Thanks so much Lamplighter!!

Too Violent for Young Listeners
From Emily Bailey of Pryor, Oklahoma on 12/11/2017.

I believe the appropriate age for this audio book should be at least 8 years of age. There are many graphic, violent occurrences throughout this recording which troubled my children terribly (ages 7 and almost 6). While there are rich opportunities to discuss the many unwise decisions of the characters, which lead to terrible (often extreme) consequences, the violence overshadows them...from a young girls screams of pain and terror, to the cries of her brother experiencing and suffering a broken leg, to the death of at least 3 people; darkness, dread, and pain color what could be a magnificent lesson of biblical characteristics.

Need to Have This Story!
From Anonymous of Doerun, Georgia on 10/5/2017.

This is one of the first stories I heard from Lamplighter and it is one of our favorites. There is a lesson to be learned by many young people from this story!

Fabulous
From Anonymous of Winter Park, Florida on 8/22/2017.

This was the first Lamplighter story we read and now we have revisited it through this audio drama. It is just as good as we remembered. The additional bit of story with the host Phinean Jones added to the entertainment and drives the main point with an example of application.

Give it My Highest Recommendation
From Anonymous of Pensacola, Florida on 7/10/2017.

The Hedge of Thorns has a great message for all who listen. It has such a powerful message, that in June, for our VBS, I handed it out as a prize that had to do with my lesson. Thank you Lamplighter for all the work you do to send the truth to the world!

A Reminder for All of Us
From Glenn Andes of Gratiot, Wisconsin on 5/9/2017.

What an excellent reminder of the dreadful dangers of disobedience!

Lovely
From Anonymous of Albuquerque, New Mexico on 11/27/2016.

This audio drama was amazing. The acting is great and the story even better. Everyone should have this in their collection. Even my toddler could follow some of it.

Amazing

Great Story
From Adina Antemie of Winder, Georgia on 4/10/2015.

Our family enjoys listening to Audio Stories, especially great ones like The Hedge of Thorns. The kids were engaged and wanted to talk about different situations in their lives when they made bad choices and the consequences they suffered from it.

Good Story
From Trevor Emond of Sellersburg, Indiana on 10/21/2014.

This wasn't our favorite lamplighter by a good stretch. That being said, this is STILL well worth listening to.Maybe this review will sound negative, but only because I'm comparing it to other fine Lamplighter Dramas.The hedge part I thought was a bit intense for my 8 year old daughter. Also, I've found that in any time there is a "commotion" or a fight of some kind it's hard to understand what was going on. We all were confused on a few parts of this story.
The moral of the story definitely comes across, perhaps even a bit too strong to make it believable and memorable. All that said, this still gets 4 stars from me, and definitely a good one for a road trip. Turn off the DVD player and turn on the Lamplighter Theatre! It's better for your kids and for you!

Not Recommended
From Anonymous of Foyil, Oklahoma on 8/11/2014.

The modern language style compromises the beauty of the written language of the book.

Very Highly Recommended
From Anonymous of Craig, Colorado on 11/19/2013.

Our family loves all the lamplighter books. The quality is exceptional and keeps us on the edge of our seats. We listen in the car, but sometimes I have to turn it off because it's so engrossing and I have to drive.

I Couldn't Stop Listening!
From Grace Cox of Portland, Oregon on 10/12/2013.

I listened to this story with my 5 year old son.We both couldn't stop listening. I loved the story and the many truths about God and us that were said. It was great for my son to hear it and learn about the lessons that the main character learned, especially as he is the oldest and a big brother to little sisters. I am glad we can listen to it again and again over the years to help teach character.

Must Have
From Deana McAnulty of Pickens, South Carolina on 9/17/2013.

I have yet to buy an audio cd from Lamplighter that wasn't anything less than transforming!

Excellent Highly Recommend!
From Frances and Grant Nier of New Wilmington, Pennsylvania on 7/31/2013.

We listened to our first story while on the way to our cottage in Canada. It was presented EXCELLENTLY and we so enjoyed the accents used by performers. We could picture ourselves being in the story! It made our trip of 11 hours go much quicker. Thank you for presenting such inspiring messages in your story!

Excellent!

From Lydia Dominguez of Dewey, Arizona on 4/11/2013.

I absolutely loved this story! Hedge of Thorns is a wonderful tool for learning to "stay on the path". I am so glad I have it!

Highly Recommended!
From Becky Johnson of Colorado Springs, Colorado on 3/8/2013.

This story is a continual reminder to me and a byword in our family now, that even when circumstances seem to be inexplicably irritating and a hindrance to our plans, we need to trust God and rest peacefully and contentedly in His providence that all things are truly for our good - even when we do not understand or appreciate them at the moment. Wonderful audiodrama!

We read the book together last year, but it was so much more enjoyable to enjoy being read to as a family
