    Making Him L.O.R.D.: Living Out Reproducible Discipleship , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 253min
    Making Him L.O.R.D. is a book about allowing God to control your life in such a way that there are incredible results. "You know, brothers and sisters, that our visit with you was not without results." - 1 Thessalonians 2:1 The Bible refers to results as Christ expressing His life in and through you. Some may refer to this as fruit, work, multiplication, or movement. All of those are appropriate ways to describe how God wants to cover the earth with His Glory. From the very beginning, we want to be honest with the admission that this cannot be done on our own, but can only be done by Christ's power! A life surrendered to God is a vessel used by God to accomplish His vision. L.O.R.D. is an acrostic that stands for "living out reproducible discipleship". If you want your life to echo throughout the halls of eternity, this is a book for you. Our Master and King has set forth the plan, and people of purpose are His chosen instruments. This book is about a captivating vision held by many Kingdom-minded citizens who desire that none shall perish. This is the Father's heart! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steve Krumlauf.

    To the Best of Our Knowledge: Literature of Memory, Hörbuch, Digital, 52min
    In this hour, Julian Barnes' novel The Sense of an Ending won the 2011 Man Booker Prize. It's the story of a man in his sixties who's forced to confront a traumatic episode from his past. Barnes talks with Steve Paulson about the complications of memory, aging and moral reckoning.Next, Poet Anna Rabinowitz found a shoe box full of old letters and photos of family and friends killed in the Holocaust. She felt compelled to tell their stories, so she wrote the book-length poem Darkling to feature their voices. She tells Anne Strainchamps about the acrostic buried in the poem. We also hear excerpts from the opera Darkling.Then, novelist and essayist Andre Aciman is fascinated by memory , though he says what we remember is rarely straightforward. It's also tinged by our longing and some of what we remember may have only happened in our imagination. Aciman talks with Steve Paulson about memory and writing and the formative influence of Proust.And finally, as a child, Michael Ondaatje took a long ocean voyage from Sri Lanka to England. He's now gone back to that experience and used a highly fictionalized account for his novel The Cat's Table. He talks with Jim Fleming about the fine line between fiction and memoir and his own experience as a young boy who sailed to England. [Broadcast Date: November 22, 2013] Language: English.

    When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 450min
    Following his two New York Times best sellers, Brain Droppings and Napalm & Silly Putty, comes George Carlin's third audiobook, When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?, a riotous journey through the mind of one of America's premiere comic observers. Ranging from his absurdist side (Message from a Cockroach; TV News: The Death of Humpty Dumpty; Tips for Serial Killers) to his unerring ear for American speech (Politician Talk; Societal Cliches; 13 Sections of Euphemisms) to his unsparing views on America and its values (War, God, Stuff Like That; Zero Tolerance; Tired of the Handi-crap), Carlin's legendary irreverence and iconoclasm are on full display as he vainly scours the American landscape for signs of intelligence. He also has a silly side: You know what kind of guy you never see anymore? A fop. A good motto to live by: "Always try not to get killed." I've never seen a homeless guy with a bottle of Gatorade. A lot of gay men stay in the closet because they're interested in fashion. I have an impersonal trainer. We meet at the gym, we don't talk, he works out alone, and I go home. Here's something you can't do by yourself: practice shaking hands. When it comes to God's existence, I'm not an atheist and I'm not an agnostic. I'm an acrostic. The whole thing puzzles me. Good news for senior citizens: Death is near! O.J. Simpson has already received the ultimate punishment: For the rest of his life he has to associate with golfers. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Unafraid: Be You. Be Authentic. Find the Grit and Grace to Shine. , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 398min
    As women, we struggle to feel like we’re good enough because we are bombarded daily with messages that whisper, “Who you are is not okay.” We live in a world that tells us we have to look a certain way, live a certain lifestyle, have husbands who fit a certain mold, and have children that excel in every area of their lives. And rather than thrive in the life we have, we strive to create an existence that impresses others. This impossible treadmill leaves us with deep discontentment and a joyless existence. God doesn’t apologize for how He created us. And while we’re always being molded by our Creator, it’s only to shape us for the calling on our life - not so we can fit into a world we were never meant to:  “Do not allow this world to mold you in its own image. Instead, be transformed from the inside out by renewing your mind. As a result, you will be able to discern what God wills and whatever God finds good, pleasing, and complete. Love others well, and don’t hide behind a mask; love authentically” (Romans 12:2, 9). What if we had the confidence to shed our fears and be who God created us to be - stumbles, fumbles, and all - relishing who we are rather than conforming to the world? Using an acrostic for the word AUTHENTIC, author Carey Scott unpacks nine ways we can find the confidence we need to shine with fearless authenticity:  Accept Your Awesomeness Unearth the Untruths Try Loving Everyone Hold on to Hope Extend Forgiveness Never Shrink Back Trample the Negatives Invest in Community Camp in the Word of God Let’s link arms and commit to living authentic lives...together. Are you ready? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Carey Scott. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hove/003589/bk_hove_003589_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
