Foxe's Book of Martyrs , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 705min
Originally published in the 16th century, this is the classic history of the lives, sufferings, and deaths of the early Christian martyrs. As interesting as fiction, it is written with both passion and tenderness, telling the dramatic story of some of the most thrilling periods in Christian history. Foxe brings to life the days when "a noble army, men and boys, the matron and the maid, climbed the steep ascent of heaven, amid peril, toil, and pain." After The Bible itself, no book so profoundly influenced early Protestant sentiment as the Book of Martyrs. Even in our time it is still a living force. It is more than a record of persecution. It is an arsenal of controversy, a storehouse of romance, as well as a source of edification. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robin Lawson.

Albert Pike: Master of Wisdom: Foundations of Freemasonry Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 22min
Thomas Milton Stewart (1866-1945) was a physician from Ohio, as well as a prolific, although rather unknown, writer of Freemasonry, Theosophy, and philosophy. This particular piece was originally an oration given by Brother Stewart, on the occasion of December 29, 1909, at the Pike Centennial Anniversary, in Wheeling, West Virginia. He speaks about the concept of True Initiates or Masters of Wisdom. Stewart believed that these Masters of Wisdom have been present throughout history, helping to storehouse secret, initiatory knowledge for future generations to pass on, particularly during times when the leadership was intellectually bankrupt and incapable of "passing on" this knowledge, as was originally intended. It's clear that Stewart rightly considered Albert Pike to be one of these Masters of Wisdom, likening him to men such as Plato and Pythagoras. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Norman Wood.

It's Good to Be Queen: Becoming as Bold, Gracious, and Wise as the Queen of Sheba , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 297min
When it comes to queens in the Bible, we know the good one, Queen Esther, and the bad one, Queen Jezebel. But what about the wise one, the queen of Sheba? This wealthy royal from antiquity who longed to observe for herself the wisdom of Solomon offers a storehouse of treasures for her modern sisters, showing us how to seek truth, ask the right questions, keep an open mind, give generously, and honor God above all. Just as Sheba posed enigmas for Solomon to solve, this book will address thorny life questions and consider what qualities best serve a godly queen of any realm. It's Good to Be Queen incorporates the biblical account with historical material from Josephus and other resources and touches on various legends that have swirled around the queen of Sheba for thousands of years. As she did in The Girl's Still Got It, Higgs offers deep and meaningful takeaway while drawing listeners in through her warmhearted, sometimes humorous style. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Patrician, Hörbuch, Digital, 582min
The Patrician (1911) is a historical romance by John Galsworthy.Excerpt from the book:"Light, entering the vast room - a room so high that its carved ceiling refused itself to exact scrutiny - travelled, with the wistful, cold curiosity of the dawn, over a fantastic storehouse of Time. Light, unaccompanied by the prejudice of human eyes, made strange revelation of incongruities, as though illuminating the dispassionate march of history. For in this dining hall - one of the finest in England - the Caradoc family had for centuries assembled the trophies and records of their existence.Here alone they had left virgin the work of the old quasi-monastic builders, and within it unconsciously deposited their souls. For there were here, meeting the eyes of light, all those rather touching evidences of man’s desire to persist for ever, those shells of his former bodies, the fetishes and queer proofs of his faiths, together with the remorseless demonstration of their treatment at the hands of Time."

The Odyssey , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1017min
The Odyssey is the greatest adventure story ever written, and one of the great epic masterpieces of Western literature For almost 3,000 years, it has been a storehouse of ancient Greek folklore and myth. It is also our very first novel, if we think of it in terms of romantic plot development, realistic characterizations, frequent change of scene, and heroic dramatic devices. These elements continue to make it far more popular than its kindred piece, The Iliad. No other character in world literature has inspired as many literary works as Odysseus ("Ulysses" in Latin).The story concerns an incident in the Trojan War and the difficulties of its hero, Odysseus, as he attempts to reach his home. Although possessing courage, stamina and power, it is his powerful mind that ultimately enables him to reach his destination and slay his adversaries. Odysseus is the very model of the worldly, well-traveled, persevering man. With his diplomacy, quick wit, and shrewd resourcefulness, he survives one catastrophe and set-back after another. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlton Griffin.

Wisdom of the Talmud , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 325min
This is a highly comprehensive introduction to the Talmud, the age-old storehouse of Jewish wisdom. Bokser covers the long history of the Talmud, from its origin in the Babylonian exile, its growth through the five centuries after the Roman destruction of the Temple, and the later persecution of the Talmud. The book covers a number of high-level topics, including social ethics and personal morality, with numerous examples from the Talmud. Ben Zion Bokser was one of the major Conservative rabbis of America. He stressed the Rabbinic sages and the Talmud as the source of Judaism. "This is not an uncommon impression and one finds it sometimes among Jews as well as Christians - that Judaism is the religion of the Hebrew Bible. It is, of course, a fallacious impression. Judaism is not the religion of the Bible." Bokser affirms revelation, but revelation is always framed in humans by man. "Man receives a divine communication when the divine spirit rests on him, but man must give form to that communication." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Allen O'Reilly.
