How's Your Soul?: Why Everything You Want in Life Starts with the Inside You , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 310min

Judah Smith, New York Times best-selling author of Jesus Is ______, explores what it looks like to cultivate a healthy soul in the midst of a busy life and points listeners to the soul's only true home and place of rest and fulfillment: God. "How's your soul?" Instead of a perfunctory "how are you?", Judah Smith asks people this surprising question, because he knows that the health of the soul - the deepest part of ourselves - is overlooked in the busyness of everyday life. But the truth is, all the things people most desire in life - stability, peace, hope, love - are rooted in the health of their souls, and they need an intentional daily journey to manage it well. In How's Your Soul?, Judah explores the various facets and needs of the inner person, showing listeners how to cultivate healthy souls and leading them to the discovery that ultimately their souls are fully home - in a state of internal wellness, fulfillment, and completeness - only when they look to God, trust God, and rest in God. ungekürzt.

Prayer: Communing with God in Everything - Collected Insights from A. W. Tozer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 311min

Some churches now advertise courses on how to pray. How ridiculous! That is like giving a course on how to fall in love. - A. W. Tozer Tozer understood prayer as few do: as a way of life. Now listeners can share that same grand vision. Prayer combines the best of Tozer on prayer into one volume. Tozer was captured by the great wonder of God, and he regarded prayer as the primary means of coming into his presence. But if our everyday life is filled with the barrenness of busyness and there is no serious urgency to pray, we forfeit the wonder of being conformed to the image of Christ and knowing our God more intimately - the true Christian life. Prayer is doable. God is accessible. And Tozer provides the wisdom and encouragement to help us encounter him daily. With commentary and reflection questions provided by compiler W.L. Seaver, Prayer takes our understanding of prayer to new depths and helps us have a life that prays. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joe Geoffrey.

24/6: A Prescription for a Healthier, Happier Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 307min

Just as the Hebrews were slaves in Egypt, we have become slaves to technology. Our technological tools allow 24-hour productivity and connectivity, give us more control, and subtly enslave us to busyness itself. The Sabbath is about restraint, about intentionally not doing everything all the time just because we can. Setting aside a day of rest helps us reconnect with our Creator and find the peace of God that passes all understanding. The Sabbath is about letting go of the controls one day a week and letting God be God. So how do we do it? In 24/6, Dr. Matthew Sleeth describes our symptoms, clarifies the signs, diagnoses the illness, and lays out a simple plan for living a healthier, more God-centered life in a digitally dazed, always-on world. Sleeth shares how his own family was dramatically transformed when it adopted Sabbath practices and helps listeners better understand how their own lives can be transformed - physically, emotionally, relationally, and spiritually - by adopting the 24/6 lifestyle. ungekürzt.

What if every day we are stubbing our toes on the sacred and not realizing it?

Waking up Slowly is author Dave Burchett's personal challenge to live in the moment and find the everyday joys we miss when we live in disconnected busyness.

Do You Know What Time It Is? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 86min

Every breath in your lungs is a gift. Each moment is valuable. You have an allotted time to obey God, a window of opportunity to do what He has asked you to do. But it's easy to become so preoccupied with busyness that you miss out on the true business of this life: obeying God. In her book, Do You Know What Time It Is?, Denise Renner encourages and admonishes you to get in step with God's purpose for your life so you won't stand ashamed before Jesus on that day when you give account for your time on this earth. So be honest with yourself. Has God been asking you to do something that you just keep putting off? Maybe He's been talking to you about your health or a relationship. Perhaps He has dealt with you about laying aside an offense or a certain habit. Or He may have asked you to do your part in revealing His love in a difficult situation. The list could be endless, but the point is this: It's time to do what God has told you to do before the opportunity to obey Him is lost. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrell Corbin.

The Love Language of God , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 561min

The Holy Spirit is changing the expression and understanding of Christianity in our generation. Like a caterpillar undergoes metamorphosis in preparation for its destiny as a butterfly, the Body of Christ is in the process of a Holy Spirit-inspired metamorphosis in preparation to enter into its God-given destiny as the Bride of Christ. Christianity is changing from being a task-oriented "doing" to becoming a relationship-oriented "being" - becoming the eternal, equally-yoked companion for the Son of God. A clear image of that loving relationship between Christ and his bride, the Church, is presented in The Love Language of God for you. Author James Sheets presents a clear picture of the love of God as he intends for us to understand it. In the busyness of our modern lives, it is easy to forget that a love relationship is what the Lord Jesus so desires to have with every believer. A clear image of that loving relationship between Jesus and his bride, the Church, is outlined here for those who are not satisfied with status quo Christianity, and are longing to have a closer, more intimate relationship with our Savior, the Glorious Man, Christ Jesus. Don't let that intimate relationship with Jesus get lost in the everyday hubbub of life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kyle Tait.

Do Less Be More: How to Slow Down and Make Space for What Really Matters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 241min

Unleash your greatest potential by slowing down and doing less. At a time when being busy is worn as a badge of honour and we are accustomed to filling every waking moment with (often useless or unpleasant) activity, Do Less Be More explores why switching off, or at the very least slowing down, is vital to ensure we achieve what we want. Busyness is a barrier to self-reflection, a hindrance to novel solutions and a smokescreen to clarity. While cramming in one more task may feel useful, productive or even satisfying, it's not always the best use of a spare moment. In fact it will inevitably lead us to a place where we become less productive, less creative, less inspired and less satisfied with life. While we might think we don't have any space in our lives to do more of what is important to us, Do Less Be More offers listeners 21 activities to reclaim even the tiniest moments, like waiting for a coffee, to rest their brains and, in so doing, rediscover insight, inspiration and fresh ideas. Learn how to ban busy and focus on what really matters with practical ways to say no and embrace silence, space and solitude. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Pearse, Martina Sheehan.
