Selfishness and Self-Will: The Path to Selflessness in World Religions , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 633min
Years ago, I had met with Christ in a Near Death Experience. He had shared with me the secret to our existence on earth. "It is the goal of human existence," He had said, "to go from selfishness to selflessness." That directive has remained with me since that time and this book is the result of further out-of-body travels wherein He came to me and directed me to gather those sacred texts that show us how to accomplish this vital task of our human existence. In the texts to follow are the secrets to this marvelous and praiseworthy task. Contained within them are instructions on going from selfishness and self-will to selflessness. ungekürzt.

Eyes of Honor: Training for Purity and Righteousness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 428min
Open your pure eyes. Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things (Philippians 4:8). After struggling with sexual temptation for years, author Jonathan Welton devoted himself to finding a way to be completely free from sexual sin. He read books, attended 12-step groups, and participated in counseling - with no success. Spurred on by countless friends and acquaintances who shared a similar broken struggle and longed for freedom, the author searched Scripture - there he found the answer and shares it with you in a compassionate, nonjudgmental way. Eyes of Honor helps you understand how to live a life of purity by realizing: Your personal identity. How to view the opposite sex correctly. Recognizing your enemies. Eyes of Honor is honest and refreshing, offering hope and complete freedom and deliverance from sexual sin. Jesus' sacrifice on the cross and your salvation guarantee rescue from the appetite of sin. Your true identity empowers you to stop agreeing with the lies of the enemy that ensnare you. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Welton.

Sarge!: Cases of a Chicago Police Detective Sergeant in the 1960s, ’70s, and ’80s , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 582min
Sarge! is a fascinating memoir by the late Chicago Police Detective Sergeant John A. DiMaggio, one of the most decorated officers on the force during a career that spanned the years 1957 to 1991. Among his awards are two Superintendent’s Awards of Valor, Mayor Richard J. Daley’s Praiseworthy Acknowledgment Plaque for Exceptional Act of Bravery Involving Risk of Life, a Presidential Citation of Appreciation, the Illinois Police Association Award of Valor, and many more.Upon his retirement in 1991, DiMaggio wrote a fascinating account of his work as a cop. The manuscript languished among his personal effects until after his death in 2008, after which his family decided to resurrect it, spruce it up, and submit it for publication. It turns out that he was an excellent word craftsman and storyteller; in fact, he was no stranger to writing - for many years he wrote the “Ask Sarge” column for the Mystery Writers of America Midwest Chapter newsletter.Told in a conversational, “regular guy” voice in episodic fashion, Sarge! reveals to the listener what it was really like to be a cop. The book in many ways takes the form of a prose treatment of a weekly television police drama.DiMaggio takes the listener back to the decades, such as the turbulent 1960s, when the police department was making a painful transition from “old school” to modernization. The author describes the legendary riots that occurred in Chicago after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. He illustrates the integration of minorities into the department and how that played out. He also goes into famous cases of corruption and the politics of navigating such a large department. One of the “set pieces” of the book is the story of how DiMaggio, as part of the “Three Musketeers” - a trio that included two detectives who were close friends - investigated a series terrifying slasher attacks on women that occurred in the city in the mid-70s. The case became one of the polic ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kevin Pierce. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/141686/bk_acx0_141686_sample.mp3.
