The Cost of Discipleship , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 540min
What can the call to discipleship, the adherence to the word of Jesus, mean today to the businessman, the soldier, the laborer, or the aristocrat? What did Jesus mean to say to us? What is his will for us today? Drawing on the Sermon on the Mount, Dietrich Bonhoeffer answers these timeless questions by providing a seminal reading of the dichotomy between "cheap grace" and "costly grace." "Cheap grace," Bonhoeffer wrote, "is the grace we bestow on ourselves...grace without discipleship....Costly grace is the gospel which must be sought again and again, the girl which must be asked for, the door at which a man must know....It is costly because it costs a man his life, and it is grace because it gives a man the only true life." The Cost of Discipleship is a compelling statement of the demands of sacrifice and ethical consistency from a man whose life and thought were exemplary articulations of a new type of leadership inspired by the Gospel, and imbued with the spirit of Christian humanism and a creative sense of civic duty. ungekürzt.

Turn of the Century, Hörbuch, Digital, 336min
As big and exciting as the next century, this is a novel of real life at our giddy, feverish, topsy-turvy edge of the millennium. Turn of the Century is a good old-fashioned novel about the day after tomorrow - an uproarious, exquisitely observed panorama of our world as the twentieth century morphs into the twenty-first.George Mactier and Lizzie Zimbalist, ten years married, are caught up in the whirl of their accelerating lives. George is a TV producer launching a groundbreaking new show. Lizzie is a software entrepreneur running her own company. However, after Lizzie becomes an adviser to George's boss, billionaire media mogul Harold Mose, the couple discovers that no amount of sophisticated spin can obscure basic instincts: envy, greed, suspicion, sexual temptation - and, maybe, love.Like Tom Wolfe's Bonfire of the Vanities, Kurt Andersen's novel lays bare the follies of our age with laser-beam precision, creating memorable characters and dissecting the ways we think, speak, and navigate this new era of extreme capitalism and mind-boggling technology. Entertaining, imaginative, knowing, and wise, Turn of the Century is a richly plotted comedy of manners about the way we live now. Language: English. Narrator: John Rubinstein.

Some Golden Harbor: RCN, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 850min
The tyrannical Alliance continues its war against the Republic of Cinnabar, and Daniel Leary, newly promoted to Commander, and his crew have a new mission: stop Dunbar's World from falling to an invasion by the planet Pellegrino. Nataniel Arruns, son of the dictator of Pellegrino, has landed with a large contingent, intending to set himself up as the ruling warlord, with the planet's population becoming serfs of the Pellegrinian overlords. And Dunbar's world has no more than their local police force to oppose him.Leary again commands the corvette Princess Cecile, but on this mission her missile tubes are empty. Only one man is in a position to aid Leary, but the rich and powerful would rather see him fail than succeed in stopping the invasion. Leary must somehow overcome a large entrenched force on an island defended by powerful plasma cannon and shipkilling missiles and backed up by a heavily armed warship in orbit, all while commanding only a small and virtually unarmed spacecraft.But Leary again has the help of Signals Officer Adele Mundy, who can make computer networks do the apparently impossible. Leary, Mundy, and the crew of the Princess Cecile have gone up against impossible odds before, and their opponents in those victorious missions are still wondering just what hit them. ungekürzt.

Meisternovellen 8, Hörbuch, Digital, 386min
In der LILYLA Hörbuch-Edition "Meisternovellen" erwarten Sie auserlesene Erzählungen der deutschsprachigen, russischsprachigen, englischsprachigen, amerikanischenglischsprachigen und französischsprachigen Weltliteratur. Wir haben uns bemüht, eine Auswahl zu treffen, aus welcher deutlich wird, wie vielfältig und abwechslungsreich Literatur ist. Französische Verspieltheit, Russische Abgrundstiefe, Englische Leichtigkeit, Deutsche Dualität und Amerikanische Unbeschwertheit sind nur schwache Unterscheidungsmerkmale zwischen der jeweiligen Literatursprache. Die Gedanken der großen Autoren bedingen sich gegenseitig und stehen in einer Wechselwirkung zueinander, so dass in jedem ihrer Werke Spuren aller anderen zu finden sind. Ohne Kenntnisse über Anderes und Fremdes zu haben, wäre es nicht möglich gewesen Eigenes zu schaffen, was jeder der Autoren dieser "Hörbuch-Kollektion" getan hat. Ihre Erzählungen werden mit Recht dem Kanon der Weltliteratur zugerechnet, weil sie das widerspiegeln, was dem jeweiligen Zeitgeist entspricht und weil ihre Erzählungen von dem handeln, was von zeitloser Ästhetik und Würde ist: Menschlichkeit und ungeschönte Beschreibung der Realität mit all ihrem pulsierenden Leben, voll von Widersprüchen, Hoffnungen, Ängsten, Romanzen, Schicksalsschlägen, Lebensfreude, Brutalität, Liebe und dem Sinn unserer Existenz und deren Werte mit all seiner Sanftheit und all seiner Härte. Diese zeitlose Literatur hat ihren unumstößlichen Platz in allen aufgeklärten Gesellschaften sicher. Der Sprecher Friedrich Frieden taucht in die Gedankenwelt der Autoren der Weltliteratur ab und verleiht dieser mit seinem außergewöhnlichen Sprach-, Rhythmik-, Tempo-, und Authentizitätsstil gelebten Ausdruck. Meisternovellen 8. Inhalt: Voltaire: Memnon oder die menschliche Weisheit, Fjodor Dostojewski: Herr Prochartschin, Theodor Fontane: Im Coupe, Oscar Wilde: Der opferwillige Freun deutsch.

The Council of Trent: Answering the Reformation and Reforming the Church, Hörbuch, Digital, 283min
You will love this fascinating and exceptionally well-taught course. What really happened at the Council of Trent? After Luther, Calvin, and Henry VIII, the Council of Trent is one of the most frequently invoked names regarding the Reformation. Even so, few know much about it. As renowned historian Fr. John O'Malley demonstrates, the reality of Trent differs radically from how you probably conceive of it. In this 12-lecture course, you will discover the council's wide-reaching cultural and religious influence over the centuries. This Council profoundly impacted the Catholic Church, and its decisions had repercussions throughout Europe. You'll find this a great course whether you are interested in history, theology, or Catholic doctrine. The leading political figures were deeply involved, as were the five popes who reigned during the fateful 18 years over which it stretched. Lurching from one crisis to the next, they all had something at stake in the Council. Despite these political maneuvers, the Council professedly concerned itself with religion, especially Catholic doctrine and reform. The dramatic debate surrounding reform resulted in decrees that have had a lasting impact on the Church. The story of the Council continues long after its implementation: indeed, historians deem the 400 years following Trent the "Tridentine Era". As you will discover, the legacy of this landmark Council is vital to an understanding of the Church today. Language: English. Narrator: John W. O'Malley.

Apocalypse 2012: The World after Time Ends, Hörbuch, Digital, 121min
Apocalypse 2012: The World after Time Ends is a documentary that revives humanity’s ancient spiritual past with Native American spiritualists, secular prophets, environmentalists, healers, and leaders in the global sustainability movement. Director Bruce Weaver clearly Illustrates that only a spiritual and mythic revival can correct humanity’s course. From stories by Sequoyah Trueblood, a former Green Beret and Choctaw medicine man, to the eco-visionary insights of environmentalist Dr. John Todd, Apocalypse 2012 will challenge the world to rethink, regroup and revive the ancient spiritual paths modern society has lost, clearly to its peril. Apocalypse 2012 is a call to end mechanized ways of existence by waking to the buried callings of our ancient soul song. The time is now. Humanity is barreling past the point of no return. Fueled by hope, but awake to our catastrophic path, this program explores in a penetrating and, at times, disturbing way the very real fate of the planet and the potential of the individual to shift the collective course - if changes are made. Some listeners may close their hearts and minds to the revelations in this program. Others will awaken with increased hope, feeling less threatened and fearful, more deeply inspired to build a sustainable future for posterity. Prepare for the coming apocalypse of change, for it is coming and for those who are prepared, a new dawn will arise. Language: English.
