This is one of the most significant books on prayer I've read in my lifetime. (Dick Eastman)“God, don’t take my little girl. Please don’t take her. Please, God!”As Brian Alarid cried out on a hospital floor for his daughter’s life in May of 2016, he had no idea God was about to use him to ignite an international prayer movement. Today, America Prays has mobilized 24/7 prayer in 1,200 churches in 17 states while World Prays has mobilized 24/7 prayer in 10 nations, in addition to tens of thousands of believers, families, businesses, and ministries, all partnered together in 24/7 prayer for global spiritual awakening. But through it all, Brian has learned that while following God's calling is the most fulfilling purpose there is, it is also the hardest battle. In truth, "Prayer is warfare." Join Brian on a journey through the depths of despair to the mountaintops of prayer, where the hard and painful questions are asked, and be inspired to pray and encounter Jesus like never before. ungekürzt.

Where's the Next Shelter? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 670min

Where's the Next Shelter? is the true story of three travelers on the Appalachian Trail, a 2,000-mile hike that stretches from Georgia to Maine, told from the perspective of Gary Sizer, a seasoned backpacker and former marine who quickly finds himself humbled by the endeavor. He teams up with Megan, a sassy college grad whose indomitable spirit eclipses her lack of experience; and Lemmy, a cartoonist from overseas whose off-kilter commentary on the wonders and frustrations of the trail keeps everyone laughing. Sprawling through the woods and towns of the Appalachian Mountains, the trail carries the trio through real and fanciful ups and downs ranging from hilarious to perilous. Much more than an orderly account of mountaintops and meals, this book is an adventure about friends figuring things out as they go. It's about screwups and solutions, awe and inspiration. If you long for the horizon or to sleep under the stars, then come along for the hike of a lifetime. All you have to do is take the first step. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gary Sizer.

Staying Sane in Crazy Town: A Monologue of Rude Wisdom , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 296min

Staying Sane in Crazy Town interweaves memoir, cultural commentary, philosophy. and science in a bid to uncover the lies people tell themselves about the things they most fear - lies that come at a terrible cost. The tale is inspirational without offering up the bromides of typical self-help and inspirational texts. It is philosophical, but funny and in-your-face.As a poignant story of loss and recovery unfolds, serious and interesting questions are examined in a direct, conversational way: What is our most immediate and fundamental relationship to the world and each other? What is the human self? Why is mourning essential to recovering truth and love? How do the conditions that make us feel most vulnerable contain a hidden well of strength and courage? Why is myth indispensable, and how is it different from religion, superstition, and New Age panaceas? Why should we greatly cherish the "ca-ca moments" of our lives?Lo Bosco packs a cultural and existential punch you wont soon forget, freely and humorously mixing elements of story, memoir, confession, and the kind of life philosophy you find on few mountaintops in America. ungekürzt.

Islands in the Cosmos: The Evolution of Life on Land (Life of the Past) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 834min

How is it that we came to be here? The search for answers to that question has preoccupied humans for millennia. Scientists have sought clues in the genes of living things; in the physical environments of Earth, from mountaintops to the depths of the ocean; in the chemistry of this world and those nearby; in the tiniest particles of matter; and in the deepest reaches of space. In Islands of the Cosmos, Dale A. Russell traces a path from the dawn of the universe to speculation about our future on this planet. He centers his story on the physical and biological processes in evolution, which interact to favor more successful and eliminate less successful forms of life. Marvelously, these processes reveal latent possibilities in life's basic structure and propel a major evolutionary theme: the increasing proficiency of biological function. It remains to be seen whether the human form can survive the dynamic processes that brought it into existence. Yet the emergence of the ability to acquire knowledge from experience, to optimize behavior, to conceptualize, to distinguish "good" from "bad" behavior all hint at an evolutionary outcome that science is only beginning to understand. The book is published by Indiana University Press. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Brian E. Smith. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/038951/bk_acx0_038951_sample.mp3.

Ball Lightning , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 732min

Wildly imaginative. (Barack Obama on The Three-Body Problem trilogy)A new standalone military science fiction adventure from the New York Times best-selling and award-winning author of the Three-Body Trilogy. When Chen’s parents are incinerated before his eyes by a blast of ball lightning, he devotes his life to cracking the secret of the mysterious natural phenomenon. His search takes him to stormy mountaintops, an experimental military weapons lab, and an old Soviet science station. The more he learns, the more he comes to realize that ball lightning is just the tip of an entirely new frontier in particle physics. Although Chen’s quest provides a purpose for his lonely life, his reasons for chasing his elusive quarry come into conflict with soldiers and scientists who have motives of their own: a beautiful army major with an obsession with dangerous weaponry, and a physicist who has no place for ethical considerations in his single-minded pursuit of knowledge. Ball Lightning, by award-winning Chinese science fiction author Cixin Liu, is a fast-paced audiobook about what happens when the beauty of scientific inquiry runs up against a push to harness new discoveries with no consideration of their possible consequences. This program is read by Feodor Chin, voice of Zenyatta in Overwatch. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Feodor Chin.

That Thing about Bollywood

Bollywood takes over in this "effervescent" (Booklist) and magical middle grade novel about an Indian American girl whose world turns upside down when she involuntarily starts bursting into glamorous song-and-dance routines during everyday life. You know how in Bollywood when people are in love, they sing and dance from the mountaintops? Eleven-year-old Sonali wonders if they do the same when they're breaking up. The truth is, Sonali's parents don't get along, and it looks like they might be separating. Sonali's little brother, Ronak, is not taking the news well, constantly crying. Sonali would never do that. It's embarrassing to let out so many feelings, to show the world how not okay you are. But then something strange happens, something magical, maybe. When Sonali gets upset during a field trip, she can't bury her feelings like usual—instead, she suddenly bursts into a Bollywood song-and-dance routine about why she's upset! The next morning, much to her dismay, Sonali's reality has shifted. Things seem brighter, almost too bright. Her parents have had Bollywood makeovers. Her friends are also breaking out into song and dance. And somehow, everyone is acting as if this is totally normal. Sonali knows something has gone wrong, and she suspects it has something to do with her own mismanaged emotions. Can she figure it out before it's too late?
