Title: Franciscan Prayer: How Saint Francis Prayed

Author: Fr. Murray Bodo OFM PhD

Narrator: Fr. Murray Bodo OFM PhD

Format: Original Recording

Length: 4 hrs and 50 mins

Language: English

Release date: 07-25-17

Publisher: Now You Know Media Inc.

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

"Lord, make me an instrument of your peace."

These words come from one of the most recognized prayers in the world, "A Prayer for Peace". Recent custom attributes them to St. Francis, the saint whose legacy leads thousands to pray. Although it is unlikely that St. Francis authored this popular prayer, the Franciscan tradition of prayer is similarly humble and eloquent.

In this series, Fr. Murray Bodo explores the uniqueness of Franciscan prayer as well as its continuity with the Judeo-Christian traditions of prayer. Using the life and prayers of St. Francis as well as his admonitions and writings on how we are to pray, Fr. Bodo treats the 10 movements of Franciscan prayer.

With Fr. Bodo you will explore how the young St. Francis' imprisonment and subsequent reversal of his ambition to be a knight led to his becoming an interior person, how he learned that the way to God is the way God came to us in the Incarnation, and how St. Francis' prayer for identification with the crucified Christ resulted in the sacred stigmata.

Discover the beauty and spirit of Franciscan prayer through 12 of Fr. Bodo's enriching 25-minute lectures.

Title: St. Paul's Letters Series: Philippians

Author: Sr. Laurie Brink OP PhD

Narrator: Sr. Laurie Brink OP PhD

Format: Original Recording

Length: 3 hrs and 27 mins

Language: English

Release date: 07-25-17

Publisher: Now You Know Media Inc.

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Through this gripping series of nine talks, you will explore the content, context, and culture of Paul's letter to the Philippians.

The letter to the Philippians is filled with Paul's loving support and challenge that the community might be of one spirit and one soul, seeing in both Paul and in Christ examples of humility and strength through suffering. Philippians has long been considered one of Paul's most personal and affectionate letters. Examine the historical context of ancient Philippi and the significance of the Roman military's presence. Understand Paul's writings by exploring his culture and worldview. Why did Paul choose to write letters, and how did he construct his messages? What can we learn from Paul's use of rhetoric and metaphors? Specifically from this special letter, what do we learn about the conflict upsetting the Philippians? How is the so-called Hymn to Christ in chapter 2 related to Paul's call for unity? How might we understand the letter to the Philippians within our own time and place?

Your guide and lecturer, Sr. Laurie Brink, invites you to enjoy this special series: "Know that as the presenter, I must echo Paul's words: 'It is not that I have already taken hold of it or have already attained perfect maturity, but I continue my pursuit in hope that I may possess it, since I have indeed been taken possession of by Christ Jesus' (Phil 3:12). I invite you to join me as we 'continue our pursuit toward the goal, the prize of God's upward calling, in Christ Jesus' (Phil 3:14)."

Title: Jesus and the Holocaust

Subtitle: Reflections on Suffering and Hope

Author: Joel Marcus

Narrator: James C. Lewis

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 38 mins

Language: English

Release date: 07-12-17

Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 12 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Poignant meditations occasioned by a unique convergence of commemorative events.

On Good Friday, April 14, 1995, Christians remembered the crucifixion of Jesus, Jews reenacted the Passover, and the world at large observed the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II and the Holocaust. That unusual juxtaposition formed the backdrop as Joel Marcus - a Jew by birth, a Christian by choice - took the pulpit at St. Mary's Cathedral in Glasgow, Scotland.

This book presents Marcus's stirring meditations that day on the relationship between the deaths of six million innocent Jews in the Holocaust and the death of one innocent Jew on the cross. Through reflection on Bible passages in light of stories and poems about the Holocaust, Marcus shows how the hope that Christians have always found hidden in the darkest hour of their liturgical year can shed light on the most tragic moment of our recent history - and vice versa.

Title: Godly Freedom

Subtitle: Christian Devotional Readings from 1 Corinthians

Author: Rebecca Livermore

Narrator: Jennifer L. Vorpahl

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 1 min

Language: English

Release date: 06-29-17

Publisher: Ordinary Believer

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

In her dynamic new devotional, Godly Freedom, Bible teacher and best-selling author Rebecca Livermore taps into the truths penned long ago by the apostle Paul to the church in Corinth. To put it bluntly, the Corinthians were a big hot mess. Among other things, they dealt with issues such as:

Paul caught wind of the troubles, and wrote them a very straightforward letter - which we now know as the book of 1 Corinthians - to deal with the issues. When you consider what a mess the church in Corinth was, it's easy to stand in judgment of them - until you realize that they were people just like us. That's the bad news. The good news is that the principles laid out in the 24 devotionals in this book provide modern day applications to the truths laid out in 1 Corinthians. Applying these lessons will keep you from making the mistakes the Corinthians made. Each devotional includes a passage of scripture from 1 Corinthians, a story or illustration related to the scripture, a prayer, and suggestions for applying the truths. This book will take you on a journey - a journey to Corinth, but even more importantly, a journey to becoming a more mature believer in Jesus. It is for any Christian that desires a closer walk with God.

Rebecca Livermore is a best-selling author, blogger, and the cofounder of Ordinary Believer, a ministry focused on helping "everyday" Christians apply biblical truths in meaningful ways. She has been married to her husband, Chuck, for more than 30 years and is the mother of two young adults who affectionately nicknamed her "Hot Rod Mama".

Title: For Those Tears I Died

Subtitle: The Amazing Story About How One Song Brought Healing to Millions and Birthed Contemporary Christian Music

Author: Marsha Stevens-Pino

Narrator: Laura Leatherwood

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 hrs and 46 mins

Language: English

Release date: 06-14-17

Publisher: Canyonwalker Press

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

At just 16, Marsha Carter (now Stevens-Pino) shared her newly born-again Christianity with a song that went on to become one of the most widely recognized and translated hymns in Christian circles: "For Those Tears I Died (Come to the Water)". Some historians have said it was the first song to be called "contemporary Christian music". Since those modest beginnings, Marsha has continued her journey in the world of Christian music. She shared her music first as a member of Children of the Day, who are considered the first music group in the contemporary Christian music (CCM) genre. When she came out as a lesbian she experienced severe animosity from those who were conservative Christians, including the Christian music industry. The hostility and behavior by Christians she had ministered to, and with whom she sometimes traveled, did not deter her Christian spirit. More than ever, Stevens-Pino passionately pursues her ministry, producing inspirational and edifying songs and performing widely as a solo artist around the United States to spread the positive Christian word of Love to all of God's creation, especially to the gay and lesbian communities. Marsha has written and recorded dozens of albums under the label of BALM Ministries. The label stood for her commitment of being a born-again lesbian musician. Marsha is free to follow the path she has chosen and to share her uplifting testimony, without apology. Faithful to the spirit of her faith and with the full support of her spouse Cindy, Marsha lives openly, with the Jesus who invited her to come to the water, so many years ago.

Title: The Practice of Catholic Theology

Subtitle: A Modest Proposal

Author: Paul J. Griffiths

Narrator: Thomas D. Hand

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 12 mins

Language: English

Release date: 06-09-17

Publisher: University Press Audiobooks

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

In The Practice of Catholic Theology: A Modest Proposal, Paul J. Griffiths has written a how-to book for Catholic theologians that will both instruct beginners and challenge long-time practitioners to sharpen their understanding of their craft. He defines Catholic theology as the practice of thinking, speaking, and writing about the God of Christian confession; so understood, it's something that anyone can learn to do. Personal sanctity is not required, but as with any other practice, practitioners of this beautiful and elevated thought-performance need to know some things and to develop some skills in order to be able to perform it.

This book lays out, clearly and in detail, what the relevant body of knowledge is and how to find access to it; it does that by describing the "Catholic archive" in all its variety (scriptural, conciliar, magisterial broadly and narrowly, liturgical, canon-legal, speculative), and by analyzing the authoritative weight of the various components of the archive. It shows the difference between dogmatic and speculative theology, both by example and analysis. It also gives detailed instruction in the development of the theologian's particular skills: argument, synthesis, intellectual imagination, thought-experiment, exegesis, and so on. And it describes, with particular recommendations, the essential components of the theologian's working library, and how they ought to be used.

Critic Reviews:

"This short book says some things that definitely need saying about the cognitive nature of theology. It also gives creative advice to young theologians about how they can learn their craft." (Michael Gorman, The Catholic University of America)

Title: Go West

Subtitle: 10 Principles That Guided My Cowboy Journey

Author: Jeremy Sparks, Stephen Caldwell

Narrator: Eric Burr

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 59 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-01-17

Publisher: Elevate Publishing

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Many of us would say it takes guts and a little bit of crazy to step toe-to-toe with a powerful, 1700-pound bull. For hall-of-fame bullfighter, Jeremy Sparks, it took faith.

Sparks' remarkable and illustrious journey began at a young age when he received a God-given calling to become a professional bullfighter. Soon after accepting a college scholarship for rodeo, he suffered a near-fatal electrocution, which, but for his faith in God, would have ruined his dream. After three years of training under a world champion, he was accepted into the elite Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, and spent years tussling with raging bulls until God, once again, showed him another path.

While the terrorist attack on September 11th rocked the country, Sparks saw it as an invitation to serve. He enlisted just weeks after the attack, and earned his commission as a second lieutenant in the US Air Force and an endorsement from the Pentagon as the "only professional bullfighter in the history of the USAF".

Once a small town kid from Arkansas, now a hall-of-fame rodeo icon, Sparks is sharing his stories of strength and service. With God at the center of this fascinating story, Go West highlights the 10 Biblical principles that Sparks learned, experienced, and lived by as a professional bull fighter, officer in the armed forces, and follower of Jesus Christ.

Critic Reviews:

"Readers looking for inspiration (or just a great story) will discover a wild ride that proves just how twisty some paths to Christ can be." (Publisher's Weekly)
