Christian books contain doctrines and preaching pertaining to Christianity. Generally various narrators read sections from both the old and new testaments of the Bible. Certain Christian audio books of the Bible even contain commentaries at the end.  

Apart from the Bible, Christian audio books also include famous lectures and sermons of noted religious preachers. Billy Graham and ...
