Title: Hope for American Evangelicals: A Missionary Perspective on Restoring Our Broken House

Author: Matt Bennett

Narrator: Nelson Graham

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 30 minutes

Release date: November 1, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

Is the American evangelical house in order? Or is it in need of a remodel? Or—even worse—should we sell the house altogether and look for another home? In Hope for American Evangelicals​, professor and former missionary Matthew Bennett inspects the American evangelical home. Perhaps, like him, you love evangelical doctrine, love the community in which you’ve been spiritually nurtured, and want to see it again become a thriving, hospitable environment for guests. But perhaps, also like Bennett, you think the home needs some touching up before this can be true. In this book, with insights from Lesslie Newbigin, Bennett helps listeners inspect the American evangelical house through the eyes of a missionary. As you join him on the tour, you’ll learn about: American evangelicalism’s neighborhood: how we can contextualize the gospel in our communities, Our dining room: ethnic diversity as a proof of the gospel’s truth, Our living room: the connection between our theology and the actual lives we live, Our bedroom: sexual idolatry in the church, Our yard: the difference between a manicured ministry and a missional ministry, Our address: the relationship between our heavenly citizenship and our national citizenship.

Author: Jeff Martin

Narrator: Lance Smith

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 26 minutes

Release date: November 1, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

How do you lead a movement? Movements that unify millions and sustain national relevance over the course of decades are hard to come by. They’re even harder to plan and predict. But that is exactly what happened and is captured with stunning detail in this book. In Empower, Jeff Martin drills in to four key principles that can unlock a volunteer-led movement. They were unearthed from an event he founded in 2004 called “Fields of Faith” that focused on giving ordinary people the microphone. It has impacted and united millions of people, thousands of volunteers, and countless community organizations. Each year, over 250,000 people gather on one night in communities across the country. How was he able to lead this movement? How can you lead a movement? Empower will give you the four keys—value, simplicity, commonality, and ownership—to lead a movement of your own.

Publisher's Summary:

There used to be a time we called normal. In the years leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic, we led distracted lives in a chaotic world. Though things seemed in control, we were lacking the joy of accomplishment, the courage from pushing through the unknown into the beautiful, the wonder of walking down an untraveled road to a new destination. We sought refuge in the safe confines of what we knew, what was familiar. Then, everything changed. Things will never go back to normal. This may seem pessimistic, but author Brent Crowe shows us there is a time-tested, pandemic-tested approach to a more fulfilling kind of life. There is a new normal that can, and should, emerge from the ashes of 2020. The ancient wisdom of Jesus gives us just that. Ten Steps to Your Best Life extracts ten clear steps that Jesus taught for living in and through the most difficult times of transition. Discover how to emerge from the shadows with a clear vision for living well in a post-pandemic world.

Title: To Be Concluded: How to Prevent Your Past from Piling Up and Find Hope for Your Future

Author: Mike Ashcraft

Narrator: Josh Childs

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 40 minutes

Release date: November 1, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

“To be continued…” The words build anticipation for what's coming...which is great for a Netflix binge, but not a healthy pattern for our lives. In real life, constant continuation causes our lives to pile up, episode upon episode, with no space for reflection or rest, contentment or closure. This book is for the too-busy, driven person who's moving on to the next win, without ever processing how one season of life affects the next. It's for the person stuck and held back because she's never done the hard work of getting real closure on a season. When we fail to finish well, we live with a pile of unfinished beginnings. But finished things become usable things because they are a part of the story of God’s grace and faithfulness. In these minutes, you’ll discover: - How beginnings are important because they give birth to hope - How we can hold on to hope when the journey is hard and the future is uncertain - How to conclude moments, days, and seasons and find God's grace to be enough - How hope sustains us as we learn to live in this moment and discover the beauty of redemption The pressure of our piled-up past needs to be brought to an end. Instead of vague storylines that stretch “to be continued", learn to start with the end in mind: To Be Concluded.

Author: Jeff Iorg

Narrator: William Sarris

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 56 minutes

Release date: November 1, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

Are you a shadow Christian? Shadow Christians are people who work in the margins, in the shadows created by the spotlight shining on others. We often think they - we - are insignificant. But here’s the good news: God chooses and uses shadow Christians. There are some names in the Bible that everyone knows: Adam and Eve, Noah, Moses, Mary, Peter, Paul. But the Bible is also full of stories with unnamed characters. People who made a difference not in the spotlight, but in the shadows. If you’re a shadow Christian, you matter to God, and he wants to use you to make a difference.
