Who Do You Say I Am: An Intimate Conversation with the Only Begotten Son , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 142min
It is every journalist's dream to land the assignment of interviewing an extremely famous (or infamous), influential celebrity or politician - especially if there has been controversy generated by the person's actions. The BBC reporter David Frost interviewed Richard Nixon shortly after he had resigned as president of the United States. The interview was broadcast on television around the world, and it garnered some of the highest ratings ever recorded for a news show. Other highly rated televised interviews of this type that come to mind are Barbara Walters' interview with Monica Lewinsky about her affair with President Bill Clinton and, more recently, Diane Sawyer's interview with Bruce Jenner shortly before the famous Olympic decathlete transitioned his gender to female. But, here, in Danny Clifford's Who Do You Say I Am?, we encounter The Luckiest Journalist in the History of the World. His assignment is to interview none other than the Son of God himself - Jesus Christ. Clifford's engaging style draws the listener in, and the book becomes a sort of "Let me explain what went on behind the scenes and set the record straight" opportunity for Jesus to clarify - in plain, everyday language - some of the deepest, most enduring mysteries of all time: His own life and mission. Christians the world over should enjoy this fascinating - if only imagined - sit-down session with the most influential human being who ever lived. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Clem.

The Life Engine , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 532min
Ian Wolfe is not your typical CIA officer. A former Olympic decathlete whose face once graced the covers of teen magazines and cereal boxes, he was disgraced by a doping scandal, and now he is seeking to reinvent himself within America's intelligence community. But Wolfe's first assignment could be his last, because it brings him face-to-face with April Gentry, world-renowned biologist and category four hurricane. Seeking to fulfill her late father's legacy, she will stop at nothing to bring a life-altering medication she discovered in the Amazon to market. Both Wolfe and April's plans go awry when one of April's business partners hacks into sensitive spy satellite data. The CIA thinks April is involved and shuts down her operations. Wolfe suspects otherwise and offers to help April clear her name. There's just one catch: He'll have to defy the CIA to do it. Despite the fact April despises everything Wolfe represents, she agrees to his plan. Pursued by every law enforcement agency in America, both Wolfe and April come to realize they may have misjudged the other and we see them drawing closer to each other while they are on the run. Meanwhile, far darker forces dog their trail in the person of Anakim Sebastian, a mysterious man who believes he is one of the angels of the apocalypse. Whatever else he may be, Sebastian is death incarnate, and he is coming for them. What follows is a breathless adventure with action unfolding simultaneously on two continents. Pitting ancient arts and rituals against the modern techno world, little do the players realize the future of the planet - our life engine - hangs in the balance. ungekürzt. Language: English.
