Wisdom for Mothers: A Mother with a Vision , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 148min
Mothering is a sacrifice that demands one’s life! In attempting to be an effective mother, one needs to be intentional about strategizing well to fulfill this sacred and honorable calling. Practical mothering is, however, not a permanent state, so it is essential for one to prepare and be ready to step into the other areas of one’s calling when the time comes. Wisdom for Mothers is a God-inspired book from a mother who wants to encourage other mothers to be their very best in their parenting and also to be ready and well-equipped for all the other callings God has ordained them for. Many mothers have fallen into the trap of nonachievement because they were not prepared for their next assignment after their children were grown up and didn’t need their active contributions. Unfortunately, situations like these have led to despondency, regrets, and disappointments in the life of the mothers concerned. However, with proper planning and preparation, the story can be different. Wisdom for Mothers will show you how to balance being a mother and, at the same time, invest in yourself for the next phase. You will learn principles, disciplines, and be inspired to be your very best in all your endeavors without compromising on the most important things of life. ungekürzt. Language: English.

God'fessions: Daily Confession of God's Word and Promises Over Your Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 273min
In a world fraught with evil, encroaching darkness, violence, strife, confusion, distractions, emotional instability, and attacks on families, failing finances, and health, man's usual reaction is that of despondency and negative proclamations. In the beginning, when God saw the darkness that covered the face of the earth, he decreed what he wanted to see rather than agree with what he saw. Since we are made in his image, rather than confessing the problem (darkness), we are to confess the solution (the Word), thereby transforming darkness to light. "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Rom 10:10)Believing and confessing are an important part of our Christian walk. What becomes manifest in our lives depends on our faith and confession. When our lips contradicts the word of God, we prevent his work in and through us, but when we get our hearts and lips in line with his word, he manifests his grace in us and his power flows through us.God'fessions is the first of four compilations of inspired confessions of God's promises. This audiobook will help you cultivate an awareness of your spiritual blessings and the limitless power of God as well as enable you grow stronger in your faith as you establish the truth of God's word over you and your household through your declarations. Start god'fessing! Your change is here! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gbemileke Oscar Oyinsan, Titi Oyinsan.

The Srimad Bhagavad Gita in English Retold and Read for You by Tavamithram Sarvada , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 172min
Feelings such as happiness, sadness, fear, anger, desperation, hatred, etc., are states of mind. You are happy or sad only when you think of whatever it is that gives you those feelings. It is the way you perceive different situations that cause the different states of mind. The fear of losing what or who one is attached to leads people to take the wrong decisions which can have serious repercussions and cause irreversible damages in one's life. Attachment and the fear of losing can make people losers. The Srimad Bhagavad Gita, one of the most important scriptures revered by the followers of the Sanatana Dharma aka Hinduism, is a transcript of the dialogue between Shri Bhagavan Krishna and Arjuna at the battlefield of Kurukshetra, as reported to king Dhritarashtra by his charioteer Sanjaya. The scripture begins with the chapter that talks about the feelings of despondency, weakness, and confusion that took over Arjuna's intellect. The despondent state of mind of the valiant, intelligent, and knowledgeable warrior king Arjuna was about to turn him into a coward, destroy his perspicacity, and drive him towards delusion, failure, defeat, and ignominy. However, Arjuna took a wise decision. The two hours and 50 minutes that you spend on this audiobook of the complete Srimad Bhagavad Gita in English presented by Tavamithram Sarvada will help you: i. Correct flaws in your thinking as well as in your perception of reality, ii. Understand the natural "Cause and Effect" principle, iii.

Don't You Know Who I Am?": How to Stay Sane in an Era of Narcissism, Entitlement, and Incivility , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1146min
It’s time to take our lives back from a world of narcissism, entitlement, and toxic relationships.“Don’t you know who I am?” has become the mantra of the famous and infamous, the entitled and the insecure. It’s the tagline of the modern narcissist. Health and wellness campaigns preach avoidance of unhealthy foods, sedentary lifestyles, tobacco, drugs, and alcohol, but rarely preach avoidance of unhealthy, difficult, or toxic people. Yet the health benefits of removing toxic people from your life may have far greater benefits to both physical and psychological health. We need to learn to be better gatekeepers for our minds, bodies, and souls. Narcissism, entitlement, and incivility have become the new world order, and we are all in trouble. They are not only normalized but also increasingly incentivized. They are manifestations of pathological insecurity - insecurities that are experienced at both the individual and societal level. The paradox is that we value these patterns. We venerate them through social media, mainstream media, and consumerism, and they are endemic in political, corporate, academic, and media leaders. There are few lives untouched by narcissists. These relationships infect those who are in them with self-doubt, despair, confusion, anxiety, depression, and the chronic feeling of being “not enough,” all of which make it so difficult to step away and set boundaries. The illusion of hope and the fantasy of redemption can result in years of second chances, and despondency when change never comes. It’s time for a wake-up call. It’s time to stem the tide of narcissism, entitlement, and antagonism, and take our lives back. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ramani S. Durvasula, PhD.

Tangled in Ivy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 517min
From the best-selling author of Only One Life comes a story of true love that spans decades. Lillian Alexander has never understood why her twin sister hates her so much. Layla’s animosity stems from childhood, from their mother’s death 27 years ago. But Lillian remembers nothing about that day. Why, if her mother’s death was an accident, does Lillian harbor guilt, as though she were somehow to blame?Lillian discovers a thumb drive, marked for her eyes only, in her recently deceased father’s study. Graham’s account of his stormy relationship with her mother stirs long-suppressed memories and divulges information about Lillian’s past that sets her on a journey of self-discovery. After a whirlwind courtship and fairy tale marriage, Graham’s honeymoon with Ivy is short-lived. When tragedy strikes, Ivy sinks into the depths of despair, refusing to see anyone but her childhood best friend. Resentful of the strange hold Alice has over his wife, discouraged by Ivy’s persistent despondency, Graham turns elsewhere for comfort, spawning events that forever alter the course of their lives. When the Alexander sisters learn the family fortune is gone, the rift between Lillian and her sister deepens as Lillian fights to save her family’s ancestral on Charleston’s prestigious East Battery. Ghosts from the past resurface and truths are revealed, leading to a dramatic conclusion not soon forgotten. “The story is endlessly intriguing, with enough plot turns that readers who predict one or two may still be surprised.... The ending befits this realistic portrayal of love, family, and all the complications those two often engender.... An absorbing fusion of a searing family drama with an unusual love story.” (Kirkus Reviews) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tanya Eby, Andrew Parella.
