Title: Vertical Church Subtitle: What Every Heart Longs For, What Every Church Can Be Author: James MacDonald Narrator: Wayne Shapherd Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 09-15-12 Publisher: christianaudio.com Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 52 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: An emergency call, and I rush from my coziness into the dark community where the police have requested a chaplain. Arriving in minutes, I find the family imploding with grief having just discovered their son hanging in the garage. In a moment of unshakable pain, he jumped off the ladder and into eternity. And I will never shake the look in their eyes when I asked why he hadn't called a church. "Why would he do that?" Across town, a pool of tears on my kitchen table as an out of town guest feels the weight of his infidelity, despairing that his famished soul finds no refuge and that he has to board a plane to feel fellowship. "Has your church tried to help you?" And the Christian leader confesses he hasn't been to church in years. Infighting, backbiting, heartbreaking, frustrating...church. Though exceptions do exist, the reality is that church in America is failing one life at a time. Somewhere between pathetically predictable and shamefully entertaining, sadly sentimental and rarely authentic, church has become worst of all...godless. Vertical Church points to a new day where God is the seeker, and we are the ones found. In Vertical Church God shows up, and that changes everything. If you want to experience God as you never have before and witness His hand at work, if you want to wake up to the first thought, "Thank God it's Sunday," if you're ready to feel your heart beat faster as you drive to your place of worship...then devour and digest the lessons of Vertical Church.

Title: The Nuns of Sant'Ambrogio Subtitle: The True Story of a Convent in Scandal Author: Hubert Wolf Narrator: Paul Boehmer Format: Unabridged Length: 15 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 02-04-15 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 26 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: In 1858 a German princess who had been recently inducted into the convent of Sant'Ambrogio in Rome wrote a frantic letter to her cousin, a confidant of the Pope, claiming that she was being abused and that she feared for her life. What the subsequent investigation by the Church's Inquisition uncovered were the extraordinary secrets of Sant'Ambrogio and the illicit behavior of the convent's beautiful, young mistress, Maria Luisa. Having convinced those under her charge that she was having regular visions and heavenly visitations, Maria Luisa began to lead and coerce her novices into lesbian initiation rites and heresies. She entered into a highly eroticized relationship with a young theologian known as Padre Peters, urging him to dispense upon her, in the privacy and sanctity of the confessional box, what the two of them referred to as the "special blessing". What emerges through the fog of centuries is a sex scandal of ecclesiastical significance, skillfully brought to light and vividly reconstructed in scholarly detail. Offering a broad historical background on female mystics and the cult of the Virgin Mary, and drawing on written testimony and original documents, Hubert Wolf tells the incredible story of how one woman was able to perpetrate deception, heresy, seduction, and murder in the heart of the Church itself. Critic Reviews: "This sordid tale of sexual indecency, false saints, and murder within a 19th-century convent in Rome has all the trappings of a good thriller." (Publishers Weekly)

Title: Trial and Triumph Subtitle: Stories from Church History Author: Richard M. Hannula Narrator: Daniel Newman Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 10 mins Language: English Release date: 01-18-18 Publisher: Canon Press Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: "Thus says the Lord: Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find rest for your souls." (Jer. 6:16) Christianity is a faith in love with history. God took on human flesh and dwelt among us. The Spirit carried that divine work over the centuries, providing courage and maturity even amid our imperfections. Christians find their true family line not through tribes and ethnic blood but in the bond of faithfulness and shed blood that has united our family for millennia. We too often view Church history as the story of obscure aliens instead of the lives of brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers. In this collection of 46 brief biographies for children, Hannula sketches the stirring trials and triumphs of many famous and some lesser known figures in our family of faith including Augustine, Charlemagne, Anselm, Luther, Bunyan, and C. S. Lewis. Through them, we can begin to enjoy the old paths and find rest for our souls.

Title: Light from Old Times Subtitle: Or, Protestant Facts and Men Author: J. C. Ryle Narrator: Ulf Bjorklund Format: Unabridged Length: 14 hrs and 17 mins Language: English Release date: 01-02-18 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: The 19th century was an age that witnessed great progress in many areas of exploration and learning. However, according to J. C. Ryle, it was an age of great ignorance too. "With all the stir made about education", he wryly observed, "the ignorance of our own country's history is something lamentable and appalling and depressing." What particularly distressed Ryle was the scant knowledge of the English Reformation evident amongst his contemporaries. In this lay a grave danger: one of the reasons so many congregations drift from their evangelical foundations is their sheer ignorance of Christian history, and their lack of understanding of the major doctrinal controversies and why they matter. Therefore he taught that one of the best ways to stop Christians wavering "with every changing wind of doctrine" (Eph. 4:14) is to instill in them a deep love for Reformation and Puritan teaching, and a willingness to suffer for those gospel truths. The Bible often calls us to remember the past, Ryle explained, but the devil tries to make us forget. If the church is to be strengthened, then Christians must be persuaded to read the saints of the past and to learn the lessons of church history. Ryle's abiding hope for Light from Old Times is that our souls will be stirred to prayer and action by the great testimonies of Reformers and Puritans found within its pages, and then that we will dig deeper into the writings of these spiritual giants.

Title: Persuasions Subtitle: A Dream of Reason Meeting Unbelief Author: Douglas Wilson Narrator: Gene Helsel Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 36 mins Language: English Release date: 01-02-18 Publisher: Canon Press Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: In this short but fun book, Douglas Wilson gives us several fictional dialogues in which worldviews collide with an honesty and clarity that we rarely see in the real world. This book includes a wide array of positions (feminism, agnosticism, higher criticism, pantheism, Roman Catholicism), but all are given their hearing and put into conflict with the truths of Biblical Christianity. Although it is a dream of debate conducted with more clarity than we usually meet in the real world, this short book should help believers to better understand unbelief and see why it is ultimately not reasonable at all.

Title: The Gospel as Revealed to Me: Volume 2 Author: Maria Valtorta Narrator: Father Peter Bowes Format: Unabridged Length: 21 hrs and 34 mins Language: English Release date: 12-05-17 Publisher: Ruach Center Inc Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: The Gospel as Revealed to Me (formerly "The Poem of the Man-God") is the title of the new edition of Maria Valtorta's main work. The new English edition is similar to the original Italian both for the title and for the subdivision in 10 volumes. It narrates the birth and childhood of the Virgin Mary and her son, Jesus; the three years of Jesus' public life (forming the largest section); his passion, death, resurrection, and ascension; the beginnings of the church; and the assumption of Mary. In lofty literary style, the work describes landscapes, environments, people, and events with the vividness of graphic depiction. It presents characters and situations with introspective insight and sets forth moments of joy or drama with the feeling of someone really taking part in them. It provides information on the characteristics of settings, customs, rites, and cultures with convincing detail. By way of a gripping account of the Redeemer's earthly life, especially through discourse and dialogue, the work sheds light upon the whole doctrine of Christianity in keeping with Catholic orthodoxy.

Title: Unafraid Subtitle: Moving Beyond Fear-Based Faith Author: Benjamin L. Corey Narrator: Patrick Lawlor Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 11-07-17 Publisher: Harper Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: The popular Patheos blogger and a prominent figure within the Emerging Church Movement and Progressive Christianity explains how the "American Christianity" we are currently taught is actually a fear-saturated distortion of biblical faith. Benjamin L. Corey thought he was suffering a crisis of faith, but it turned out to be a spiritual awakening. Corey became aware that the constant fear of hell and judgment that defined his Christian faith was out of sync with the idea that God acts from love and promises to deliver us from fear. In the wake of this realization came newfound insights - from reading the Bible to reexamining American life and the church's role in the wider world. Corey learned that what he had been taught was a distorted version of Christianity that was not only untrue but caused real spiritual harm. He also discovered that he wasn't alone. Many Christians are yearning to distinguish between the Christianity that has become a rigid American civil religion and the authentic Christian faith embodied in Jesus. As he recounts his own spiritual journey, Corey offers a powerful and inspiring message of hope for every Christian increasingly frustrated with the church today. Do not be discouraged, he assures them. You do not need to give up your faith; you can rediscover the reality of a vibrant Christianity that delivers us from fear and inspires and guides us all today.

Title: Mindfulness and Christian Spirituality Subtitle: Making Space for God Author: Tim Stead Narrator: Neil Gardner Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 10-17-17 Publisher: SPCK, Spokenworld Audio & Ladbroke Audio Ltd Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: May I be safe and protected. May I be at peace in mind and body. May I live with ease and kindness. We can all engage with such longings - and wish these good things for the people we love. Mindfulness practice is hugely popular these days! But what, Tim Stead asks, does it have to offer Christianity? How might it help us to transform the way we manage stress and open up more completely to the promised 'life in all its fullness'? Key is the definition of mindfulness as being more fully aware of our own experience in the present moment in a nonjudgmental way. The author finds that 'distractions', so often the bane of those trying to pray, can be taken note of without our being caught up in or taken over by them. A nonjudgemental approach seems entirely consistent with talk of grace, and as Christians we know we can only ever experience God in the present moment. Tim reflects: 'If I feel loved entirely without judgment, I will gradually dare to allow every aspect of myself to come into the light of God's gaze and so into relationship with the rest of myself - and this is how healing comes.' Tim Stead is an accredited mindfulness teacher and Anglican priest. Critic Reviews: "The book on mindfulness that many of us have been waiting for! Tim Stead writes with disarming honesty for anyone seeking a fruitful and truthful way to live." (John Pritchard, former Bishop of Oxford) "A fascinating and insightful examination of the links between the Christian contemplative tradition and the stress-reducing mindfulness programme developed by Professor Mark Williams and others. I learned so much from reading this book and strongly recommend it." (Michael Mosley, award-winning BBC author, science journalist and presenter) "The popularity of mindfulness in our time is a reminder that the ancient contemplative practices of attentiveness and stillness are needed more than ever. Tim Stead suggests that the practice of mindfulness brings gifts to Christian faith and living. It is more than just another therapy - it makes space for God." (David Runcorn, author of Spirituality Workbook)

Title: The Genius of One Subtitle: God's Answer for Our Fractured World Author: Greg Holder Narrator: Greg Holder Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 49 mins Language: English Release date: 10-01-17 Publisher: Oasis Audio Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: The world is fractured. Tensions are high, patience is low, and goodwill is hard to come by. In The Genius of One, author and pastor Greg Holder reminds us of the high value Jesus and his early followers placed on community and offers guidance for how to see and relate to one another in emotionally and spiritually healthy ways so that we, the church, can fulfill Jesus' prayer for us and model a better way of loving one another in a fractured world. Tracing back to a prayer Jesus prayed on the worst night of his life, "That they" - that we - "would be one", Holder takes his listeners on a winding journey from that glorious prayer to the practical realities of everyday life. For those who cling to the hope that God is still at work, this book will both stir a deeper longing for a better way and provide practical steps toward that way.

God's Medicine Author: Ernest Holmes Narrator: John Marino Format: Unabridged Length: 12 mins Language: English Release date: 09-29-17 Publisher: Majestic Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: Today, I am going to talk about enthusiasm and how it makes all of life a joyous experience. Every normal person wishes to be well, happy and successful and there is nothing wrong with this. Sometimes we think that perhaps life withholds these good things from us, as though it didn't wish us to enter into the joy of living. And yet, Jesus said, "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."

Title: A Course of Love Subtitle: The Treatises Author: Mari Perron Narrator: Mari Perron Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 36 mins Language: English Release date: 09-13-17 Publisher: Take Heart Publications Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: There is a way of knowing that can take you beyond where all your learning has taken you. It is the way of direct experience of truth. It is the way of the heart. It may be astonishing to hear that there is a continuation of A Course in Miracles (ACIM), but it is true. Forty years ago, Jesus dictated ACIM to the scribe Helen Schucman. More recently (1998-2001) he similarly dictated A Course of Love to Mari Perron. Mari Perron, who narrates this audio edition, is the scribe, or "First Receiver," of A Course of Love. A Course of Love (ACOL) was originally received as three distinct books: A Course of Love, The Treatises of a Course of Love and The Dialogues of A Course of Love. This audiobook is book two, The Treatises. ACOL is not about adding to what one has already learned, but about undoing the learning that binds us to being other than who we truly are. The four Treatises are: (1) "A Treatise on the Art of Thought"; (2) "A Treatise on the Nature of Unity and Its Recognition"; (3) "A Treatise on the Personal Self"; and (4) "A Treatise on The New". "A Treatise on the Art of Thought" presents a new way of thought. "Thoughts that were guarded by the ego-mind were in need of being set free. Appealing to your heart was the means or cause of this freedom being accomplished in you. What was spoken of within the Course as unlearning has begun and continues here. What was spoken of within the Course as new learning has begun and continues here as well. The difference is that you are now ready to learn a new means of response to this unlearning and learning. That response is the art of thought." "A Treatise on the Nature of Unity" and its Recognition "shows you how to live as who you are, and how to act within the world as the new Self you have identified. Just like learning how to swim, it is a new way of movement." "A Treatise on the Personal Self" continues the theme of moving from head to heart, and of finding and living a new identity: "You cannot think your way to the new life that calls to you. You can only get there by being who you are in truth. All that was ever other than who you are was the ego. The ego is gone. The ego was simply your idea of who you were. This idea was a complex set of judgments, of good and bad, right and wrong, worthy and unworthy, a list as endless as it was worthless. Realize now the worthlessness of this idea and let it go." "A Treatise on the New" calls for the expression of the Self of love in form, prepares the reader for the birth of a new relationship between the physical and spiritual, and for a role in creating a new future: "Many predictions of the future have been made, and many of them have been called prophecy. But the future is yet to be created. The future depends on you who are willing to leave learning behind and who are willing to accept your new roles as creators of the new - creators of the future".

Title: God-Soaked Life Subtitle: Discovering a Kingdom Spirituality Author: Chris Webb Narrator: Derek Perkins Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 43 mins Language: English Release date: 09-11-17 Publisher: christianaudio.com Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: God's presence permeates our lives and activities. His song of delight reverberates throughout all he has created. As we open our ears to that song, we hear the truth of the gospel spoken to our hearts: the kingdom of God has come to us. Chris Webb, an Anglican priest and retreat house director, wants us all to enter into that kingdom and to experience its freedom. Written with verve, depth, and uncontainable joy, God-Soaked Life invites us to live in the reality of God's presence in our everyday lives. It's an invitation into the community of God's people, into fearless honesty about our own weaknesses and failures, into the daily experience of God through silence, Scripture, and prayer, and into a new life of love and service in the broken world around us. God's kingdom is not far away, a remote and future promise. It is here, now.

Title: Solitude and Togetherness Author: Thomas Merton Narrator: Thomas Merton Format: Original Recording Length: 11 hrs and 23 mins Language: English Release date: 08-16-17 Publisher: Now You Know Media Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity Publisher's Summary: You are invited to take a spiritual journey with Thomas Merton. Originally presented to a group of nuns on a four-day retreat, these moving talks will touch your heart while revealing new pathways for your spiritual growth. As you examine the relationship between solitude and solidarity, you will explore contemplation as practiced in its diverse forms by believers worldwide. For Merton, being contemplative meant living out the essential elements of the spiritual life. Having lived out the challenges and the triumphs of a contemplative life, Merton had a plethora of practical advice to offer. If the inspiration of the Holy Spirit is truly at work daily, then what does it look like? How can we identify its authentic presence? If it's important to spend time in silence with God, how do we go about entering into it fruitfully? The chance to hear Merton - in his very own voice - work through these and many other questions is priceless, for these talks reveal just how much care and wisdom he brings to the conversation. Ultimately, Merton seeks to teach us to welcome Christ's abundant life into our hearts so that we can truly experience the joy of the Resurrection. Let him show you the path to that profound joy today. Photograph of Thomas Merton by Sibylle Akers.
