Title: Christ and Calamity: Grace and Gratitude in the Darkest Valley

Author: Harold L. Senkbeil

Narrator: Harold L. Senkbeil

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 2 hours 36 minutes

Release date: September 3, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

2021 Christianity Today Beautiful Orthodoxy Award of Merit Lord, do you not care if we perish? That's what the frightened disciples shouted to Jesus as he slept in the stern of a storm-tossed boat. In the midst of suffering and uncertainty, we're all prone to think that God has forgotten us, he doesn't care, or he's powerless to do anything. In Christ and Calamity, Harold L. Senkbeil speaks pastorally to our suffering and uncertainty. Senkbeil shows God's constant and faithful grace to us. With Paul he encourages us: “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thess 5:16–18). Calamities come in many different sizes, and God addresses them all in his word and by his Spirit. Even when we don't see or feel it, God is always faithful. “If I dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me” (Ps 139:9–10). The disciples' faith in the midst of the storm may have been weak, but Jesus was mighty to save. And he will save you, too. No matter how small your faith, you can count on him to hear your anguished cry and to answer.

Title: Teach a Man to Fish: Engaging the Local Church to Create Sustainable, Transformational Missions

Author: Charlie Vittitow, Florence Muindi

Narrator: Cynthia Kimola, Brian Conover

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 8 hours 4 minutes

Release date: September 3, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

You’ve probably heard the old saying, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” The same basic principle applies to missions work. Too many churches and other missions organizations over-emphasize Relief Aid―no-strings-attached, handouts of vital supplies given in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. While necessary and lifesaving, Relief Aid is only a temporary fix. Once the funds dry up and the ground team leaves, the impoverished community is often no better off than they were before. In Teach a Man to Fish, the authors illustrate the benefits of “wholistic transformational development,” where―through engagement with the local church― the community is empowered to identify and carry out long-term sustainable solutions to meet its own needs. A few of the steps that “wholistic transformational development” includes are: - Give dignity to “the least of these” - Address the root causes of poverty to provide solutions for the affected - Help the vulnerable to become empowered in their own communities Filled with real-life stories from the authors’ own experiences, Teach a Man to Fish provides churches and missions organizations with a blueprint for helping people help themselves in order to create lasting change and long-term sustainability and independence.

Title: Surrender to Love: Discovering the Heart of Christian Spirituality

Author: David G. Benner

Narrator: William Slammon

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 3 hours 42 minutes

Release date: September 3, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

Surrender to the Only Perfectly Trustworthy Love In our self-reliant era, most of us recoil from the concept of surrendering to a power or authority outside ourselves. But surrender need not be seen as threatening, especially when the One to whom we surrender is the epitome of goodness and love. God doesn't want his people to respond to him out of fear or obligation. Rather, he invites us to enter into an authentic relationship of intimacy and devotion. And so God calls us to move beyond mere obedience—by surrendering to love. In this profound book, David G. Benner explores the twin themes of love and surrender as the heart of Christian spirituality. Through careful examination of Scripture and reflection on the Christian tradition, Benner shows how God bids us to trust fully in his perfect love. God is love, and he intends for you to live in his love. Surrender to Love will lead you to an unexpected place, where yieldedness to God frees you to become who he created you to be. This expanded edition, one of three titles in The Spiritual Journey trilogy, includes: - A new epilogue - An experiential guide with questions for individual reflection, as well as - Questions for group discussion.Please refer to the supplemental PDF for any accompanying materials.

Title: The Fight for Female: Reclaiming Our Divine Identity

Author: Lisa Bevere

Narrator: Lisa Bevere

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 8 hours 2 minutes

Release date: September 3, 2024

Genres: Counseling & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

'Recovering the truth in a culture of liesThe very idea of womanhood is under assault. Women are being sexualized by culture, repressed and silenced by much of the church, and minimized and redefined by language. Make no mistake about it: We are at war—for ourselves, our families, and the very lives of our sons and daughters. The question is, why? And with whom are we fighting?While it’s tempting to label people as our enemy, our true adversary is far more sinister, working in the shadows to undermine the very essence of womanhood, and with it, the divine image of male and female. Revelation 12 speaks of a dragon who is enraged with the woman and makes war on her children. This is a battle of cosmic proportions requiring heavenly solutions and insight. To win, we must first understand how he works and what he’s after. In The Fight for Female, Lisa Bevere pulls back the curtain on what’s really going on in this cultural moment, and more importantly, what we can do about it, offering a way forward that transcends familiar talking points and drives us to find God-inspired answers. This is not the time to cower or to compromise. Our marriages, children, churches, communities, and futures depend on us to be up to the task. This is your clarion call. Female is worth fighting for.'

Publisher's Summary:

In Know You Are Beloved, popular Instagram influencer and English priest, Rev. Chris Lee, helps you escape the chaos and focus on who you are before God. When was the last time you took a deep breath and pondered how God delights in you? We live in a unique time. Our days are filled with images, text, and noise, continually streaming from a screen that all of us obsessively carry. It weighs us down. Its beeps clamor for our attention, and all of this distraction is wearing us thin. We have been through―and are going through―a great unsettling in our world. What once satisfied simply doesn’t anymore. We are united in a sense of our own fragility. We have been shaken, and this has left us startled and dazed. With a series of short chapters, Rev Chris Lee takes you on an inspiring journey to meditate on essential truths that help you live your life with purpose and serenity, secure in the knowledge that your identity and worth are found in Jesus’ love for you. Know You Are Beloved can help you: - sit still, - breathe deep, - pause the chaos, - and, enter God’s loving presence A few years back, Rev. Chris Lee started sharing his thoughts about the time we are living in on Instagram in short sixty-second sermons. People resonated with the spiritual break that he was offering on social media. That’s when he decided to write a book that would help people to fight back, put down their phones, sit before God, and know they were his beloved. Each chapter seeks to refocus you on simple yet profound truths of the faith, borrowing from the great lessons from Christian history. Each succinct chapter ends with a place to breathe deeply and sit in silence―a welcome opportunity to calm your spirit and turn your gaze to God. The book will take you into a deeper place with your faith, more secure and more intimate. You can find peace, security―more fullness in your life. You can find wholeness and healing. You can know beyond a shadow of doubt that you are seen―and that God delights in you. You are his beloved.
