Title: Thirsting: Quenching Our Soul's Deepest Desire

Author: Strahan Coleman

Narrator: Strahan Coleman

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 47 minutes

Release date: October 1, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

What if the longing we feel is a sign of God’s longing for us? Thirsting is a deeply spiritual exploration of a life-changing truth: only when we learn to live in the ache of our thirst instead of running from it will we know the joy of receiving God in every part of our lives. We may be able to imagine God saving us, using us, and even loving us—but wanting us? Pursuing us? Longing for us? And yet, as spiritual director Strahan Coleman teaches, God’s greatest desire is to commune with us in the depths of our souls. In Thirsting, Strahan eloquently guides us to: - Acknowledge the God-given thirst within us so we can offer it to God in all its depth - Learn to open up our pain to God so we can experience Him in the midst of our aching - Allow God’s desire for us to open up a whole new experience of communion You thirst because you are thirsted for. Take a rich, vulnerable journey toward an inner knowing with God as you step over shame, receive His love, and drink Him deeply. The very journey you were made for. Features bonus author commentary exclusive to the audiobook.

Title: Entrusted to Lead: Cultivate Your Gifts. Build Your Confidence. Discover Your God-Given Influence

Author: Donna Pisani

Narrator: Donna Pisani, Gabe Wicks

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 41 minutes

Release date: October 1, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

A practical tool for women who are called to leadership roles in any area of life, Entrusted to Lead offers biblical insight and real-life encouragement for how to navigate their leadership journey. In Entrusted to Lead, Pastor Donna Pisani draws on over four decades of experience to offer a biblical perspective of women in leadership that considers their role an entrusted assignment rather than just an entitled position. Women who wrestle with God’s call to lead, or who don’t have anyone supporting their call, will discover how to: - Embrace their God-given, unique leadership gifts - Become alert to the internal lies that make them hesitant to pursue their calling - Answer Jesus’ mandate to women to “go tell”—even when no one seems to be listening - Understand how Paul empowered both genders to lead and serve together - Lean into Jesus’ strength when facing leadership challenges Generations of confusion keep women from answering God’s call to lead, depriving God’s kingdom of crucial gifts and abilities. Entrusted to Lead shows women what it looks like to lead with confidence in the workplace and in ministry—and why Jesus always wanted women to have a seat at the table. Features extensive bonus content exclusive to the audiobook.

Title: The End Is The Beginning: Revelation, Hope, and the Love That Lit the Stars

Author: Matthew Ian Fleming

Narrator: Mike Lenz

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 51 minutes

Release date: October 1, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

What do you think of when you think about the book of Revelation? Prophecy, apocalypse, rapture? Revelation rarely shows up in the pulpits of mainline Christian churches, and many progressives feel as if Revelation is only for 'the end is near' apocalyptics or Christian Nationalists and QAnon theorists. But the book of Revelation offers so much more if we're willing to crack it open in new ways. The End Is the Beginning cuts through the echo chamber of rapture-haunted apocalyptic anxiety with a clear picture of God's persistent love for all that was, and is, and will be. Pastor and writer Matthew Ian Fleming is a sage Revelation guide, combining his own stories with shared perspectives from an entourage of interpreters of various generations and diverse backgrounds—pastors, theologians, and people of faith—who dare to read Revelation in the face of world-wrenching events, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to the murder of George Floyd. Reading the book of Revelation takes us to the height of heaven and the depths of despair; it requires curiosity and courage. It means standing in the face of a Christian mechanism fueled by fear to reclaim a message of promise and persistence. With equal doses hope and humor, Fleming suggests that if we can contend with Revelation, it really can change everything.

Title: The Violent Take It By Force: The Christian Movement That Is Threatening Our Democracy

Author: Matthew D. Taylor

Narrator: Asa Siegel

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 11 hours 14 minutes

Release date: September 24, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

Over the last decade, the Religious Right has evolved. Some of the more extreme beliefs of American evangelicalism have begun to take hold in the mainstream. Scholar Matthew D. Taylor pulls back the curtain on a little-known movement of evangelical Christians who see themselves waging spiritual battles on a massive scale. Known as the New Apostolic Reformation, this network of leaders and believers yields colossal influence, galvanizing support for Trump and far-right leaders around the world. In this groundbreaking account, Taylor explores the New Apostolic Reformation from its inception in the work of a Fuller Seminary professor, to its immense networks of apostles and prophets, to its role in the January 6 riot. Taylor's unprecedented access to the movement's leaders, archives, internal conference calls, and correspondence gives us an insider account of the connection between charismatic evangelicalism and hard-right rhetoric. Taylor delves into prophetic memes like the Seven Mountains Mandate, the Appeal to Heaven flag, and the Cyrus Anointing; Trump's spiritual advisor Paula White's call for 'angelic reinforcements'; and Sean Feucht and Bethel Music's titanic command of worship styles across America. Throughout, Taylor maps a movement of magnetic leaders and their uncompromising beliefs—and where it might be headed next.
