With Wolfe in Canada: The Henty Historical Novel Collection , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 684min
Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges’ historically accurate, exciting, and edifying audio recordings. Shortly before the United States Revolutionary war against England, most inhabitants were her loyal subjects. France had control of much of southern Canada and the “western” lands of the current states of Pennsylvania and Ohio. Skirmishes abounded for years between English settlers pushing west and French settlers and her Indian accomplices. The Seven Years War in Europe spilled over to the colonies, where General Wolfe finally defeated the French in Quebec. This story includes depictions of the battles of Forts Duquesne and Necessity in Pennsylvania, and Forts Ticonderoga and William Henry in New York, and Quebec in Canada. The Henty Historical Novel Collection, written by George Henty in the 1800s, covers many time periods in history throughout the world. In this collection, you will learn history, geography, and vocabulary while also discovering hero characters for your children to emulate.

American Jews and America's Game: Voices of a Growing Legacy in Baseball , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1449min
Most fans don't know how far the Jewish presence in baseball extends beyond a few famous players such as Greenberg, Rosen, Koufax, Holtzman, Green, Ausmus, Youkilis, Braun, and Kinsler. In fact, that presence extends to the baseball commissioner Bud Selig, labor leaders Marvin Miller and Don Fehr, owners Jerry Reinsdorf and Stuart Sternberg, officials Theo Epstein and Mark Shapiro, sportswriters Murray Chass, Ross Newhan, Ira Berkow, and Roger Kahn, and even famous Jewish baseball fans like Alan Dershowitz and Barney Frank. The life stories of these and many others, on and off the field, have been compiled from nearly 50 in-depth interviews and arranged by decade in this edifying and entertaining work of oral and cultural history. In American Jews and America's Game, each person talks about growing up Jewish and dealing with Jewish identity, assimilation, intermarriage, future viability, religious observance, anti-Semitism, and Israel. Each tells about being in the midst of the colorful pantheon of players who, over the past 75 years or more, have made baseball what it is. Their stories tell, as no previous book has, the history of the larger-than-life role of Jews in America's pastime. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Richard Davidson.

Life Together in Christ: Experiencing Transformation in Community , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 317min
Have you joined a church or small group in hopes of experiencing real life change, only to be disappointed? Have you sat through inspiring sermons about what is possible when Christians gather together in mutually edifying relationships, only to recognize how cynical you have become after many failed attempts? Community may be one of the most over-promised, under-delivered aspects of the Christian life today. Individuals remain selfish and stuck in their ways. Communities become spiritually lifeless or even fall apart because we don't know how to experience transformation together. Transforming community does not come primarily from listening to inspiring preaching or adding another church program. It emerges as we embrace a shared commitment to the attitudes, practices and behaviors that open us to Christ in our midst. And that's where Life Together in Christ comes in. Reflecting on the story of the two disciples who meet Christ on the Emmaus Road, Ruth Haley Barton offers this interactive guide for small groups of spiritual companions who are ready to encounter Christ in transforming ways - right where they are on the road of real life. ungekürzt.

You Are There! US History: Dramatizations of US History, Hörbuch, Digital, 833min
Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges' historically accurate, exciting, and edifying audio recordings. You Are There radio dramatization begins with "live" background coverage of the historical event, and then the "on the scene reporters" take over. Everybody knows there were no radio announcers onboard the Nina, Pinta, or Santa Maria (or from Ancient Greece, Medieval France, or the Battle of Gettysburg either!), but you will be transported back in time anyway as the show "broadcasts" from the ships, the shore, and Spain. The dialogue is very believable, historically accurate, and very much in character. It is apparent that the producers of this show did their homework! Let's listen to the announcer now.... "CBS takes you back to 1492. All things are as they were then, except for one thing: When CBS is there, You Are There! You Are There is based on authentic historical fact and quotations. And now, on to our story." Look for the Old Time Radio Show Collection from the 1930s, '40s, and '50s! These classic stories will capture your attention as they reenact history in short programs.

Preaching Christ - What is it?: Brethren Writers Library, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 67min
Christianity is not a set of abstractions - a number of dogmas - a system of doctrines. It is preeminently a religion of living facts, of divine realities - a religion which finds its center in a divine Person, the Man Christ Jesus. He is the foundation of all Christian doctrine. From His divine and glorious Person all truth radiates. He is the living fountain from which all the streams issue forth in fullness, power and blessing. "In Him was life, and the life was the light of men." In this paper CHM explores Christ as a Test, as a Victim and as a Model, and asks the solemn question which still remains to be answered - answered by the world - answered by the individual sinner - "What have you done with the Son of God? This book is part of the Brethren Writers Library series. These books go forth with the purpose of introducing the listener to the writings of men who were gifted of God as teachers 'for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ'. Words by the Wayside, 2014. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stuart Packer. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hove/001200/bk_hove_001200_sample.mp3.

Marie Antoinette's Watch: Adultery, Larceny, & Perpetual Motion , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 467min
Marie Antoinette's Watch is a wonderful book. - William Gibson, author of Neuromancer Across continents and into and out of the hands of royalty, revolutionaries, smugglers, thieves, and the world's greatest tech engineers, was Marie Antoinette's watch, the "160" worth an estimated $40 million in today's dollars. Perhaps the most sought after personal technology device of the last 200 years, the timepiece, designed by the legendary Abraham-Louis Breguet, is the launching point for a thrilling and fluidly woven set of narratives that are, in part, forbidden love story, historical document, and police procedural. Marie Antoinette's Watch also deftly lays out the history of horology and the 18th Century engineering feats attained in Paris's answer to Silicon Valley, the Ile de la Cite, that made the watch the most intricate and prized personal device of its time - something that's come full circle today. In the hands of Techcrunch's East Coast Editor, John Biggs, Marie Antoinette's Watch is by turns edifying and lurid, historical and utterly modern. Culminating in a heist in a Tel Aviv antiquities museum in the 1980s, Biggs tells the story of how one object can transform countries, cultures, high technology, and time itself. ungekürzt.

Peter of New Amsterdam: A Story of Old New York , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 181min
Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges' historically accurate, exciting, and edifying audio recordings. Twelve-year-old Peter Hulbert is left an orphan in Leyden, Holland, as the rest of the Pilgrims sail for the New World. A merchant of the West India Company takes him to New Amsterdam as his servant. Here Peter's adventures begin in this historically accurate tale of life in old New York. The purpose of this story is to show children the home life of the colonists they meet in their history books. So that the stories may appeal more directly to the children, they are told from the viewpoint of a child and purport to have been related by a child. It is entertaining as well as instructive for young people to hear of the toil and privations in the homes of those who came into a new world to build a country for themselves, and such facts are not to be found in history books. Written in the 1800s, the Young Listeners Collection features children's stories from yesterday's classics. Learn from our nation's founders whose Christian faith was lived out in the lives of the characters in these stories. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim Hodges.
