The Chosen: 40 Days with Jesus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 165min
Encounter Jesus the way his followers did. Every follower of Jesus in the gospels had a not-so-great “before”: A brash fisherman. A pious religious leader. A demon-possessed woman. A thieving tax collector. Christ’s love saw beyond their brokenness and forgave. Jesus revolutionized the lives of those who followed him. And He’s still doing it today. Each of the forty devotions in The Chosen contains a scripture, a unique look into a gospel story, suggestions for prayer, and questions that lead you further in your relationship with Christ. See Jesus through the eyes of those who knew him best, and explore the backstories of people like Mary Magdalene, Peter, Matthew, Nicodemus, and more. It’s hard to relate to the sinless son of God, but we can all identify with the sinners. You too can be transformed: Jesus sees past your "before" to the person he is creating you to be. ungekürzt.

Dekker's Dozen: A Waxing Arbolean Moon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 46min
A Waxing Arbolean Moon The demon Dione existed before the dawn of time. Surely she was created alongside the very Divine Machine she came to loathe so much. From Dione's seduction by Asmodeus and imprisonment at the hands of King Solomon to her release by an unwitting archaeologist, the timeline is punctuated with the baal's influence and its counters by the time-traveling Ezekiel who repels the Arbolean invasion during the infancy of the Akkadian Empire with the weapons of an ancient Greek tinkerer. Spanning the dawn of creation and the planting of the Circle of Seven to the day Dekker Knight meets Vesuvius Briggs, A Waxing Arbolean Moon fills in all gaps in the fractured timeline of Dekker's Dozen: The Last Watchmen and functions as either prologue or epilogue depending on how you choose to look at it. Before the chaos of steampunk time-travel, cyborg ninjas, plant-spore-controlled unicorn zombies, ghost warships, and Hassidic superweapons of The Last Watchmen, A Waxing Arbolean Moon pulls back the curtain on the galactic and celestial backstories. ungekürzt.
