Title: Breaking Emotional Barriers to Healing: Understanding the Mind-Body Connection to Your Illness

Author: Craig A. Miller

Narrator: Tim Lundeen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:17:04

Language: English

Release date: 11-27-19

Publisher: Findaway Voices

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Health & Wellness, Mindfulness & Meditation, Counseling & Inspirational

Summary:

Far too many Christians are waiting, hoping, and praying for healing, but either it doesn't last or it doesn't come at all. Doctors shrug and say there is nothing they can do. Pastors say it is your sin or attacks of the devil that blocks your healing. This only leaves people more helpless, hopeless, afraid, ashamed, and still sick or in pain. Craig Miller experienced his own miraculous physical healing, and he has dedicated his life to helping others receive the permanent emotional and physical restoration that is available through the healing power of God. Craig ministers to the spirit and soul to identify root causes that block your healing. He lends particular focus to cases in which no cause of an illness can be identified and what to do when healing does not occur. He provides easy-to-use, step-by-step practical methods that are viable, available, affordable, and effective at bringing real solutions to long-term pain and suffering. And he includes real-life examples of healing testimonies.

Foreword written by Randy Clark.

Title: Manhunters: How We Took Down Pablo Escobar, The World's Most Wanted Criminal

Author: Javier F. Peña, Steve Murphy

Narrator: Ramón De Ocampo, Rob Shapiro

Format: Unabridged

Length: 08:51:03

Language: English

Release date: 11-18-19

Publisher: Simon & Schuster Australia

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Non-Fiction, True Crime, Mystery, Thriller & Horror, Law & Politics

Summary:

The explosive memoir of the two legendary drug enforcement agents responsible for taking down Pablo Escobar and the subject of the hit Netflix series Narcos.

Javier Peña and Steve Murphy risked their lives hunting large and small drug traffickers in the decades they spent working for the US Drug Enforcement Administration. But their biggest challenge was the hunt for Pablo Escobar in Colombia. The partners, who began their careers as small-town cops, have been immortalised in Netflix’s Narcos, a fictionalised account of their hunt for Escobar. Now, for the first time, they tell the real story of how they brought down the world’s first narco-terrorist and ended the reign of terror of the world’s most wanted criminal.

Manhunters takes you deep inside the inner workings of the Search Bloc, the joint Colombian-US task force that resulted in an intensive 18-month operation that tracked Escobar. Between July 1992 and December 1993, Peña and Murphy lived on the edge, setting up camp in Medellin at the Carlos Holguin Military Academy. There, they lived and worked with the Colombian authorities, hunting down a man thought to be untouchable.

Their terrifying first-hand experience coupled with stories from the DEA’s de-classified files on the search for Escobar forms the beating heart of Manhunters, a gripping account of how two determined and courageous agents risked everything to capture the world's most wanted man.

Praise for Manhunters

‘A riveting account of two brave DEA Agents who put their lives, along with their families’ lives, on the line to fight the war on drugs. A must read on the take down of Pablo Escobar.’ Joe Pistone, a.k.a. Donnie Brasco

‘A fast-paced tale by two agents who had the inside track on bringing down the most wanted man in recent US history.’ Bruce Porter, New York Times bestselling author of Blow 

‘Steve and Javier's experience on the front lines of the war on drugs over the last thirty years made them an invaluable source of information for a narrative of one of the most complex, poorly reported, and misunderstood chapters in our recent past.’ Eric Newman, Executive Producer, Narcos

‘Manhunters grabs you from the first page and gives you a front-row seat into the harrowing hunt for the brutal narco trafficker Pablo Escobar. Two unlikely heroes recount their stories in a way that is both compelling and captivating.’ Congresswoman Mary Bono

‘A compelling read about the adventures of two true American law enforcement heroes who ultimately took on the world’s first narco-terrorist, the world’s most wanted criminal, the world’s largest cocaine baron, Pablo Escobar, and won!’ Barbara Comstock, former congresswoman
