Blood Brothers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 342min

I'd be damned if I would ever worship their God of unconditional forgiveness. Mine was the Old Testament's God of justice - the God who had exposed the lascivious elders of Babylon plotting the ruin of Susannah, the God who fortified yound David against a giant Philistine.... They were flesh and blood, they prized their own worth, and asserted it, even to the point of bloodshed. What God brought out of their revenge for Israel or anyone else was not their concern. Who knows the mind of God? Man's business is to know his own mind, and he sins when he ignores its commands. In Madrid, at the age of 7, Juan Ramon Fuertes witnesses the murder of his parents by two thugs supervised by his father's business partner, Martin Esteban. His identification of the murderers dismissed by the police, the boy vows to avenge his parents. Sustained by his lust for revenge, Juan Ramon endures years of abuse in a Spanish orphanage, where he follows the movements of Esteban in news reports, eventually noticing Esteban's beautiful and pious son, Bernardo. Later, when Bernardo begins training as a monk, Juan Ramon's plan crystallizes: Use the son to get the father. With cool calculation, Juan Ramon begins monastic training, finally entering Bernardo's monastery in Toledo as Father Juan Ramon. Sensing Bernardo's attraction to him, Juan Ramon seduces the young monk to gain access to Esteban. Gradually enthralling the devout, troubled Bernardo, Juan Ramon pursues the two thugs while planning Esteban's murder. But all his schemes for justice hit an unforeseen snag when the fierce avenger falls in love with his tortured protgé. Told from the points of view of both Juan Ramon and Bernardo, Blood Brothers explores the fascinating mixture of lust, love, spirituality, and revenge underlying the mutual seduction of a holy monk and his unholy brother. Michael Schiefelbein has lived in Italy and Washington, D.C., and now resides in Memphis, Tennessee, ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rex Lobo.

The Life of Moses: A Biblical Portrait, Hörbuch, Digital, 265min

Only one man is recognized by three world religions as liberator, lawgiver, prophet, and pastor. That man is Moses, and his story leaves a profound imprint on Western civilization. In this audio program, you will address the various struggles and triumphs throughout the life of Moses and come to better understand his legacy for the future generations of God's chosen people, the Israelites, as well as us as Christians today. This study will unite the accounts of Moses in the first five books of the Bible and illustrate clearly the full significance of this faithful servant. The story of Moses is one of the most well-known biblical accounts. The burning bush, the plagues in Egypt, the parting of the sea, and the 10 Commandments are widely familiar scenes that have been adapted for novels, art, and film over the centuries. But what is factual and what fictitious elements have current adaptations added to our imagination? With Dr. Stephen B. Reid, professor of Christian Scriptures at Baylor University, you'll discover that the story of Moses begins with the story of his people. How did these people, promised the land of Canaan, get so off course that they landed in Egypt? You will begin with the opening chapters of the book of Exodus, which depict the context of Moses' birth, adolescence, and early career. As Moses flees into the wilderness, he meets Zipporah, Jethro, and the Lord. These encounters compel him return to Egypt and the vocation that will take the rest of his life. Explore the 10 plagues, Passover, the miracle at the sea of reeds, the adventures in the wilderness, the Covenant and Law at Sinai, and Moses' reflections in his farewell address in Deuteronomy. This detailed course offers profound insight into the narrative of one of the Old Testament's most important figures. Language: English. Narrator: Stephen B. Reid.

The Apostle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 370min

The Apostle Paul, even though religious, was a man transformed from one of the most violent, hateful men, into one of the godliest, loving and most powerful men that ever lived. That transformation began with an experience one day when God blinded him, and knocked him to the ground in humiliation and spoke personally to him. At that moment, Paul reversed everything he believed about God and Judaism, and from that day forward, he zealously learned, obeyed, and followed the Christ to whom he had previously despised. You are now embarking on a journey, seeing through the eyes of Paul, the most famous of all Apostles, hopefully, to discover his thoughts, his conversations, and struggles throughout his roller coaster ride of life. Although strictly based on the New Testament's accounts found in Paul's epistles and the Book of Acts, this novel projects you further into the hypothetical possibilities of what might have happened behind the scenes. Paul mentions in I Corinthians 15:32 that "I have fought with beasts at Ephesus." But, nowhere in the Scripture does he describe all those details. I have taken the liberty to explain here how that event might have played out with a lion while he was in Ephesus. You have no doubt heard about Paul's four missionary journeys and his time spent in prison writing letters to churches. His associates, such as Timothy, Barnabas, Silas, and others, experienced many inspiring events with him of miracles and rescues from his enemies. It is difficult when reading the Bible to see the chronology of Paul's life because the Bible is not about Paul, but about the God he served. No one influenced the world more than this man in the process of birthing the Christian Church. This book is not intended to supplant the Scriptures, but to put everything found in the Bible concerning Paul in chronological order and in context. The blanks of what could have happened are here filled in. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lee Alan. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/052671/bk_acx0_052671_sample.mp3.
