Publisher's Summary:

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Relationship Goals . . . Will you be remembered as a person who claimed to follow God but liked to play it safe? Or as a person who lived your life out on the limb and trusted God enough to live in crazy faith?   Noah looked crazy when he started building the ark . . . until it started raining. It was crazy for Moses to lead a nation of people into the desert away from Egypt . . . until the Red Sea parted. It was crazy to believe that a fourteen-year-old virgin would give birth to the Son of God . . . until Mary held Jesus in her arms.   There are many things that seem normal or average today that at one point in time seemed absolutely crazy. Smartphones, Wi-Fi, and even the electric light bulb were all groundbreaking, history-making inventions that started out as crazy ideas. Our see-it-to-believe-it generation tends to have a hard time exercising true faith—one that steps out, takes action, and sees mountain-moving results. Many of us would rather play it safe and stand on the sidelines, but it’s crazy faith that helps us see God move and reveals His promises.   In Crazy Faith, Pastor Michael Todd shows us how to step out in faith and dive into the purposeful life of trusting God for the impossible. Even if you have to start with baby faith or maybe faith, you can become empowered to let go of your lazy faith, trust God through your hazy faith, and learn to live a lifestyle of crazy faith. With powerful stories of modern-day faith warriors who take their cues from biblical heroes, Michael Todd equips you to   • believe for the impossible • choose hope over fear • be alert to the voice of God • cope with loss and doubt • develop a deeper level of trust in God • speak faith-filled declarations • inspire crazy faith in others   God’s not looking for somebody to give Him all the reasons why His plans can’t happen. He’s looking for somebody to believe they will happen. In fact, He has so much He wants to do through you. The question is, Are you crazy enough to believe it? *Includes a downloadable PDF containing a worksheet from the book

Title: Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth: Audio Lectures: 12 Questions Christians Should Ask About Social Justice

Series: Part of Zondervan Biblical and Theological Lectures

Author: Thaddeus J. Williams

Narrator: Thaddeus J. Williams

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 5 hours 11 minutes

Release date: September 14, 2021

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

God does not suggest, he commands that we do justice. Social justice is not optional for the Christian. All injustice affects others, so talking about justice that isn't social is like talking about water that isn't wet or a square with no right angles. But the Bible's call to seek justice is not a call to superficial, kneejerk activism. We are not merely commanded to execute justice, but to 'truly execute justice.' The God who commands us to seek justice is the same God who commands us to 'test everything' and 'hold fast to what is good.' Drawing from a diverse range of theologians, sociologists, artists, and activists, Thaddeus Williams builds a case that we must be discerning if we are to 'truly execute justice' as Scripture commands. Not everything called 'social justice' today is compatible with a biblical vision of a better world. The Bible offers hopeful and distinctive answers to deep questions of worship, community, salvation, and knowledge that ought to mark a uniquely Christian pursuit of justice. In the Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth: Audio Lectures, Williams confronts our religious and political tribalism and challenges readers to discover what the Bible and the example of Jesus have to teach us about justice. He presents a compelling vision of justice for all God's image-bearers that offers hopeful answers to life's biggest questions.

Title: Sisters in the Wilderness: The Challenge of Womanist God-Talk

Author: Delores S. Williams

Narrator: Machelle Williams

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 10 hours 8 minutes

Release date: August 17, 2021

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

This landmark work first published twenty years ago helped establish the field of African-American womanist theology. It is widely regarded as a classic text in the field. In this landmark work of emerging African American womanist theology, Delores Williams finds in the biblical figure of Hagar—mother of Ishmael, cast into the desert by Abraham and Sarah, but protected by God—a prototype for the struggle of African-American women. African slave, homeless exile, surrogate mother, Hagar's story provides an image of survival and defiance appropriate to black women today. Exploring all the themes inherent in Hagar's story—poverty and slavery, ethnicity and sexual exploitation, exile and encounters with God—Sisters in the Wilderness traces parallels in the history of African-American women from slavery to the present. A particular theology—a womanist theology—emerges from this shared experience; specifically, from the interplay of oppressions on account of race, sex, and class.

Title: 3 Big Questions That Change Every Teenager: Making the Most of Your Conversations and Connections

Author: Brad M. Griffin, Kara Powell

Narrator: Susan Hanfield

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 52 minutes

Release date: August 3, 2021

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Today's teenagers are the most anxious, creative, and diverse generation in history—which can make it hard for us to relate. And while every teenager is a walking bundle of questions, three rise above the rest: ● Who am I? ● Where do I fit? ● What difference can I make? Young people struggle to find satisfying and life-giving answers to these questions on their own. They need caring adults willing to lean in with empathy, practice listening, and gently point them in the direction of better answers: they are enough because of Jesus, they belong with God's people, and they are invited into God's greater story. In this book, which is based on new landmark research from the Fuller Youth Institute and combines in-depth interviews with data from 1,200 diverse teenagers, Kara Powell and Brad M. Griffin offer pastors, youth leaders, mentors, and parents practical and proven conversations and connections that help teenagers answer their three biggest questions and reach their full potential.

Title: Spiritual Warfare Is Real: Audio Bible Studies: How the Power of Jesus Defeats the Attacks of Our Enemy

Author: Jim Cymbala

Narrator: Jim Cymbala

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 1 hour 34 minutes

Release date: July 27, 2021

Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.5 of Total 2

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

The Bible Study Source series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, Spiritual Warfare Is Real includes high-quality, live audio sessions from the author that cover this important Bible-based topic. These sessions will reflect the ambiance of the unique recording locations, immersing the listener into the teaching. Satan is not out to get you to follow him; he's out to get you to ignore him. When we spiritually zone out, doze off, fall asleep, we are forgetting that we are in the middle of a war--and Satan loves it this way! He loves to convince people he doesn't exist. But Satan is real. He is an actual enemy of our soul. He is waging a real war against us. And we need to wake up and get in the fight. If we fail to do this, we do so at our own peril. In this five-session audio Bible study, bestselling author Jim Cymbala shows participants how to: - Recognize the spiritual wars around them. - Understand the enemy's plots against them. - Develop practical strategies for fighting back. As believers in Christ, we have been given everything we need to stand strong and take the fight to the enemy. As we do, we will recognize, as the apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians, that God 'gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ' (1 Corinthians 15:57).

Author: Angel Williams

Release date: July 27, 2021

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Join pastor’s wife, mother of four, and entrepreneur, Angel Williams, on a journey of faith, frugality, and family, as she finds treasure in the most unexpected places. We live in a society where it’s not uncommon to buy something one week and throw it away the next. We constantly throw out serviceable and even valuable items without a second thought. But to Angel Williams that’s an opportunity. Angel started dumpster diving out of curiosity when a woman at church mentioned it to her, but it quickly turned into a sizeable side-business to help support her growing, blended family. She learned quickly that dumpster diving is far from a last resort for those in unfortunate circumstances. It can be a fun and profitable family activity! In Finding Your Treasure, Angel shares how dumpster diving fits into her family’s Christian mission, how she started her business, and the moral case for reusing and recycling what your neighbors throw away. With a focus on faith and community, Angel opens up about her own journey, from starting to dive to growing her own YouTube following. Angel shares her most amazing finds, including $1,000 cash, designer handbags, and even toys and furniture for her family. She’ll take you through where you can find the best places to dive, how to pick which items to sell or donate, how to put safety first, and where you can find your own local community of fellow divers.

Title: Transforming Worship: Planning and Leading Sunday Services as If Spiritual Formation Mattered

Author: Rory Noland

Narrator: Bob Souer

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 5 hours 55 minutes

Release date: July 20, 2021

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Spiritual formation is the key to the survival of our faith. Stigmatized by scandal, the church in North America and throughout Europe has been branded as useless and irrelevant. To stem the tide of nominal Christianity, we need to get serious about making disciples who can make other disciples. There is an urgent need today for church services that are substantive and purposeful. Rory Noland is a worship leader who has led in contexts ranging from megachurches to small retreat settings such as the Transforming Center. Combining discipleship and worship—what Noland calls 'Transforming Worship'—he offers a vision for worship as spiritual formation. We need to reclaim our worship services as a formative space, and through that we will become the light of Christ in a dark world.

Title: When Thoughts and Prayers Aren't Enough: A Shooting Survivor's Journey into the Realities of Gun Violence

Author: Taylor Schumann

Narrator: Lisa Larsen

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 8 hours 27 minutes

Release date: July 20, 2021

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Taylor Schumann never thought she'd be a victim of gun violence. But one spring day a man with a shotgun walked into her workplace and opened fire on her. While she survived, she was left with permanent wounds, both visible and invisible. In When Thoughts and Prayers Aren't Enough, Taylor invites us to see what it means to be a survivor after the news vehicles drive away and the media moves on. Healing is slow and complicated. As she suffered through surgeries, grueling rehabilitation, and counseling to repair the physical injuries and emotional trauma, she came face to face with the deep and lasting impact of gun violence. As she began grappling with the realities, Taylor experienced another painful truth: Christians have largely been absent from this issue. Gun violence undercuts God's vision of abundant life and community—and the silence of the church rings loudly in the ears of survivors and families of victims. Taylor weaves her own incredible story of survival and recovery into a larger conversation about gun violence in our country. With compassion and honesty, she encourages listeners to reconsider their own engagement with the issue and to join her in envisioning a more hopeful, safer future for our nation. Move beyond thoughts and prayers and enter into grace-filled dialogue and action.

Title: Sacred Earth, Sacred Soul: A Celtic Guide to Listening to Our Souls and Saving the World

Author: John Philip Newell

Narrator: Angus King

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 16 minutes

Release date: July 8, 2021

Genres: Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

A leading spiritual teacher reveals how Celtic spirituality -listening to the sacred around us and inside us – can help us heal the earth, overcome our conflicts, and reconnect with ourselves. John Philip Newell shares the long hidden tradition of Celtic Christianity, explaining how this earth – based spirituality can help us rediscover the natural rhythms of life and deepen our spiritual connection with God, with each other, and with the earth. Newell introduces some of Celtic Christianity’s leading practitioners, both saints and pioneers of faith, whose timeless wisdom is more necessary than ever, including: Pelagius, who shows us how to look beyond sin to affirm our sacredness as part of all God’s creation, and courageously stands up for our principles in the face of oppression. Brigid of Kildare, who illuminates the interrelationship of all things and reminds us of the power of the sacred feminine to overcome those seeking to control us. John Muir, who encourages us to see the holiness and beauty of wilderness and what we must do to protect these gifts. Teilhard de Chardin, who inspires us to see how science, faith, and our future tell one universal story that beings with sacredness. By embracing the wisdom of Celtic Christianity, we can learn how to listen to the sacred in nature and within one another, but our culture – at the times even our faiths – have made us forget what each of us already know deep in our souls but have learned to surpress. Sacred Earth, Sacred Soul offers a new spiritual foundation for our lives, once centered on encouragement, guidance, and hope for creating a better world.
