Members Reviews:

Love me tender

I was amazed at how this book resonated within my spirit. Especially the chapters having to do with "learning to speak woman." In short this is a must listen, I was a bit confounded by an earlier review ridiculing this book that review could not be more wrong. This is a man revolution book in the spirit of Bly and John Eldredge, 5 stars.

Good book

this book covered some topics that godly men need to consider. I will visit this book again .

Worth it

I am a busy person and have a hard time paying attention. I tend to listen to my books 2 times a week for 30-45mins so it wasn't hard to keep my attention. So many of these books say the same things so I make sure I look for things that make it unique on its own. This book has those things that set it apart. Yes, it has some of the same things as other books but it doesn't have it own material. I plan on listening to this authors other books next.

Favorites

When I go to reread a good book, this may be one of my favorites. Well done, Stu and reader.

Great book for men to read

What did you love best about Tender Warrior?

He gives a biblical balance to being a Man, Father, Husband, Friend

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No. Only because it is so much to take in all at once.

Any additional comments?

In our macho/wimpy society, this is a good balance using what God tells us in the Bible what a man needs to be. This book does not tell you how to do it but the direction you need to go in, the Bible.

Title: Life of the Beloved

Subtitle: Spiritual Living in a Secular World

Author: Henri J. M. Nouwen

Narrator: Henri J. M. Nouwen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 37 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-24-10

Publisher: St. Anthony Messenger Press

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 177 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

How does one live a spiritual life in a secular world? Henri Nouwen responds from the depths of his heart to this dilemna posed by his friend Fred Bratman. Nouwen's own interpretive reading of the text lends a sense of immediacy to the audiobook.

Critic Reviews:

"Nouwen uses Jesus' experience in baptism, 'You are my beloved Son,' and Jesus' life example of living as God's beloved, chosen, blessed, broken and given for the whole world to help readers see themselves as God's beloved." (Christian Living)

Members Reviews:

Listening Is Life Changing

Several years ago, when I first listened to this reading by Henri Nouwen in my car on my way to work, it didn't seem that big of a deal. But by the second day of listening on my commute, something happened. I noticed myself interacting with co-workers in good humor where only days before I experienced anger bordering on rage. Suddenly other people seemed transformed. I held the door for a woman, a total stranger, carrying packages at the mall and she said, "God bless you today." I stopped hating my job. I stopped hating the traffic on my commute. Externally, nothing in my day-to-day life was any better, but I felt better. Nothing outside me had changed, but something in me had changed.

Compelling

Compassionately read by the author in a way that makes what might otherwise be too removed from daily life into something that deeply informs. I am glad I listened.

A very good "read"

If you could sum up Life of the Beloved in three words, what would they be?

1. beloved 2. joyous 3. inspirational

What was one of the most memorable moments of Life of the Beloved?

The view of people as God views them, and the view of myself as God sees me!

Have you listened to any of Henri J. M. Nouwens other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, this is my first.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes. It was addictive. Each chapter built upon the previous one. It was hard to take a break.

Any additional comments?

I gave this 4 stars in performance, simply because Henri Nouwen's accent can be difficult to understand at times. He is very articulate, but there are a few instances, that needed to be reversed and listened to again.

That being said, It is an inspirational and joyful book, filled with Nouwen's understanding of a loving God. There's something about his voice, though difficult to understand at times, that is like having your grandpa read to you. His voice is soft but firm, educational yet very friendly.

POWERFUL MEDITATION

Would you listen to Life of the Beloved again? Why?

Yes I would because he is reflecting deeply on timeless and life-giving truths that we easily forget.

Who was your favorite character and why?

This question does not apply.

Memorable Read

Would you consider the audio edition of To Live Is Christ to be better than the print version?

I still love printed books and writing in the margins and underlining things, but this book is one that is great to walk or drive with and listen to over and over again, always gaining something new from it each time I listen to it.

What did you like best about this story?

Beth has such a great admiration and love for God and it shows in how she brings the books and the people of the Bible to light in her teachings and writings. I feel like I know Christ and the Apostle Paul so much better after listing to this book.

Which character as performed by Renee Ertl was your favorite?

This is not really an appropriate question for this book as she isn't reading in character parts, but she does read similar to the way Beth would have presented her writing, with emotion and thoughtfulness.

Any additional comments?

This is a great read for those wanting to understand more about the life of Paul and his passion for spreading the Gospel and living for Christ. You can know a little or a lot about the Bible already, either way you will gain from this book.

A book I will listen to again and again.

I must admit that I am hooked. I have listened all the way through twice and I can guarantee I'll listen many more times. I have always felt a special fondness and admiration for the Apostle Paul. Beth's deep insights have de-mystified his life and teachings for me, and I have come away with an even deeper feeling of endearment for him. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who desires encouragement to finish the race well.

Beth does it again

To Live as Christ, exceeded my expectation of a Beth Moore book. So many insights into the life of Paul. Every page is worth reading, I learned so many new things. Thanks Beth. The narration was not that great however. There were a lot of repeated phrases/sentences, mispronunciations, and once a starting over preceding with the word "sorry." One positive thing was the narrator's voice had a similar quality to Beth's.

Fantastic study

This study was far better than I could have imagined. I love the narrator's kind and easy to follow voice.

story of Paul

LOVED learning more about the life of Saul contrasted against how to live our lives

Title: Hidden Christmas

Subtitle: The Surprising Truth Behind the Birth of Christ

Author: Timothy Keller

Narrator: Sean Pratt

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 hrs and 26 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-25-16

Publisher: Penguin Audio

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 263 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

From pastor and New York Times best-selling author Timothy Keller comes the perfect gift for the holidays - a profoundly moving and intellectually provocative examination of the Nativity story.

Even people who are not professing Christians think they are familiar with the story of the Nativity. Every Christmas, displays of Jesus resting in a manger populate lawns and churchyards, and songs about shepherds and angels fill the air. Yet despite the abundance of these Christian references in popular culture, how many of us have examined the hard edges of this biblical story?

In his new book, Timothy Keller takes listeners on an illuminating journey into the surprising background of the Nativity. By understanding the message of hope and salvation within the Bible's account of Jesus' birth, listeners will experience the redeeming power of God's grace in a meaningful and deeper way.

Members Reviews:

My new favorite Christmas book

Over the years I have collected quite a number of "Christmas books" - short little volumes written by pastors on the meaning, message and importance of the event and its celebration. This is one of the best. Written with Keller's usual precision and insight, using the story of Christmas, the reader is reminded of the Gospel and that it's message is both radical and needed. Thanks Dr Keller. I needed this.

The Christmas Book that can be read all year!

One of the very best books I have ever read concerning the real meaning of Christmas as well as what does a real relationship with Jesus look like.

Very Appropriate for the Holidays. A good listen without all the usual hype.

Enjoyed the narrator's delivery. Contents was informative and reassuring. Logic and history prevail. I had no issues with his facts and had to finish it all in one sitting.

Elegant and Insightful

Would you consider the audio edition of Hidden Christmas to be better than the print version?

The audio version allowed me to experience the book more deeply. I was able to listen as I wrapped gifts for Christmas, which focused my heart on the object of Christmas...Jesus Christ!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

The Christmas I thought I knew...but didn't

love yields courage

Kellar at his Christmas best. good. like how he develops that love is what leads to coragious action.

Members Reviews:

Great Resource

I think what I like most about this book is the honesty behind it. Both Bill Johnson and Randy Clark are very open about what they've learned. They also talked about how their faith was built and how they struggled in some areas before as well. It's encouraging, and it humanizes them. I think there's a lot to be gained from hearing how someone else has been used by God in healing. Their other book, The Essential Guide to Healing, expands on a lot of the same content, and gives more of the "how to".

All Christians and non Christians must read

Very easy to follow. Love the inspiring stories and will read it over many times.

Great encouragement for believers!

It was a fascinating experience listening to Bill and Randy explain in detail their journey, as God uses them for healing ministry! They are so candid, it was encouraging to hear how God can use us when we are willing. They explain how they hungered for the gifts and then pressed in whenever they could to grow. The result...many many people healed, set free and touched by the love of Jesus.

Self Discovery

I loved every part of this book. I will recommend this book to every friend I have. I can see someone saying, that's easy to do when you only have two friends! I do have many people to notify. I have been on self discovery of healing for approximately a year now. This is my last passion in life.

Imparted to heal

An amazing recording and has impartation anointing - listen and listen again and go and practice . Thanks Bill & Randy

Title: The Vision: The Final Quest

Author: Rick Joyner

Narrator: Henry O. Arnold

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 17 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-29-17

Publisher: Thomas Nelson

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 15 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

The Final Quest is in audio for the first time, bringing to life Rick Joyner's epic journey!

In the mid-1990s, Rick Joyner received a prophetic vision of the ultimate clash between the forces of good and evil. His panoramic experience became the best-selling book The Final Quest.

Now, for the first time, The Final Quest is available as an audiobook, bringing to life the epic journey fans have only read about. Let your heart and mind follow professional narrator Henry O. Arnold as he leads listeners on an unprecedented journey, scaling the Mountain of the Lord.

Guided by wisdom, Joyner's adventure begins on a grim battlefield, where the hordes of hell wreak havoc. As he learns the right way to fight alongside his fellow soldiers, he progressively weaves his way up the side of the mountain, discovering a new spiritual principle at every level.

Shocked by a number of surprises along the way, Joyner eventually makes his way through the ranks of heaven where he receives valuable spiritual wisdom from heroes of the faith who have finished their race.

The Final Quest offers both a warning and an encouragement to the faithful followers of Jesus. We must remain sober about our enemy and do everything we can to help prepare our brothers and sisters. And we must always remember we serve a loving God who gave Himself for us and is calling us to do the same.

Members Reviews:

a blessed vision

a blessed experience that will forever be embedded in my heart. i will. tell all.

Amazingly Deep!!!

The first chapter alone will blow your mind and have you reprioritize your life. The remainder of the book is only for the brave. I am grateful for this revelation.

Challenging, revealing and beautiful.

I read the first part of Rick Joyners vision about 20 yrs ago. It really gave me insight into what's happening in the spiritual world. When I saw this book on audible I had to have it. It has left me full of wonder at the love of Jesus, who He is and who we are in this great spiritual battle we are consigned to fight in. The more we understand Him, the more we know Him. The more we know Him, the more at peace and effective we are in living the life he has called us to lead and the life we will want to embrace when we continually have the eyes of our hearts opened.

John Bevere does it again! Tools and Power we need

What made the experience of listening to Relentless the most enjoyable?

John Bevere is a gifted and blessed man of God. He understands what everyday Christians deal with...the devil, the mind, the world, belief. John gets it and God has used him to write about it. Personally, I have the read, the Bait of Satan, Undercover, Driven by Eternity, Fight like a girl, (Lisa Bevere) and Extraordinary. Now Relentless.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Relentless?

Never give up.

What about John Beveres performance did you like?

He is a wonderful man of God.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I loved alllll of it.

Any additional comments?

If you have never read his other teachings, DO IT, for the LIFE OF IT!

Need more

A great book that full of Godly knowledge and wisdom to empower anyone whom needs it!

Every believer needs to read or hear this book.

i learned some important points that are eye opening & are not taught openly as they should be. we have been given the power to overcome but why dont ww use it? Because we either dont believe it or dont know how to use it. in most cases we have been taught to doubt that our prayers are not always answered. John brings out that we have been given the same power Christ has because we are one with hm.

So inspiring! Loved it!

The delivery was great and the stories were relevant and on point with scripture. Have already recommended this book to my friends.

A must read or listen

John Bevere tells it like it is while speaking in love. I hope to share this message with many others!

Healing Power of the Written Word

What did you love best about Prayers that Bring Healing?

John Eckhardt capsulizes timeless, biblical wisdom of the healing power embedded within us, offering key scriptures that unlock the vital foundation for deliverance, restoration and wholeness.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The greatest character of this book is the High Physician Himself --Jehovah Shalom-- the Prince of Peace and Healer of all that is created.

Which character as performed by Mirron Willis was your favorite?

Narrator Mirron Willis provides authoritative boldness that's apropos of Eckhardt's writing.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Consistent declarations of these prayers can bring empowerment and health to those willing to believe. I personally recommend daily hearing and devotional study of this book for sound multiple healthcare.

Any additional comments?

Without wanting to sound cliche, this is just what the Doctor ordered! "Prayers That Bring Healing", authored by John Eckhardt, is an ideal gift in both hard copy and audio formats... I made sure I treated myself first!

Need Another Narrator (Preferably John Eckhardt)

I didn't too much like how Mirron Willis read the book. His voice didn't fit, and he paused too much while reading it. And how could someone narrate a Christian book by a Christian author and then narrate a book for homosexuals?! (Mirron Willis) otherwise, the book was awesome.

Excellent Material, Halting Performance

Revelations of the healing power of God and prayers to release those revelations based on the Bible permiate this book. I highly recommend if you desire healing and health for you and those around you.

The performance seems haulting and a bit overdramatic with the extrnded pauses between sentences and commas, but the voice itself is good.

A Great Faith Builder

This is an encouraging and very well put together book. The narrator did an excellent job. Teaches you so much on how to pray the Word for healing.

A Must Read

There's nothing like the Word of God , to prpmote healing every time , I Thank God , for Jesus the Word made flesh came among use .

Language: English

Release date: 02-14-14

Publisher: christianaudio.com

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 257 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Dallas Willard and John Ortberg explore what it means to live well now in light of God's kingdom. They reflect on the power of the Trinity in our lives, the meaning of knowledge, the importance of spiritual disciplines and much more. Dallas Willard offers poignant thoughts about what it will be like to transition into the very presence of Christ in heaven. This audiobook is adapted from the talks given at the February 2013 Dallas Willard Center "Knowing Christ Today" conference in Santa Barbara, California. Each chapter is followed with an illuminating dialogue between Ortberg and Willard. The audiobook closes with the theme of offering a blessing to one another. These reflections comprise an apt conclusion to Dallas Willard's public ministry. It is a gift of grace. A conversation guide written by Gary W. Moon is included.

Members Reviews:

Let Go of Control

Despite the title laden with all kinds of connotations, this is a phenomenal book. The book is really the summary of a conference put on by Willard and his friend/mentee John Ortberg. The conference was for pastors of churches and it turned out to be Dallas Willard's last work before he died.

I listened to the audio of the conference (which was at least slightly edited from the conference) and flipped through the book, reading about half of it in review. The book is also cleaned up a bit from the audio version.

1. I'm currently on a quest to discern what it is about my conservative christian roots that is so off-putting to myself and others.

2. I've always been fascinated by Dallas Willard being such an influential christian while his day job had him in the philosophy department of a major university (USC). From a couple of comments from my Aunt who recently listened to this I decided to start here, at the end of his works.

If Dallas Willard had a church, I think I may enjoy it. There are 2 really important pieces from this book that make me think I would enjoy a community with Dallas Willard leading it.

1. There is a recurring idea letting go of control in almost every aspect of christianity. One of the most gripping examples is when he speaks of himself as a young pastor: "I thought the way to move someone was to make them feel, not provide them with knowledge." He has since learned that making someone feel is manipulative, and providing someone with knowledge is empowering. If there is any single piece keeping people out of conservative christianity, it is probably this one. He states the problem and applications in a few different ways throughout the book and states it well. Do your best and let go.

2. Willard (and Ortberg) puts a lot of emphasis on life now rather than life after death. "Your kingdom come... on earth as it is in heaven" so we are not leaving to go to heaven, heaven is coming to earth. I think between Dallas Willard and NT Wright's influence the conservative christian church is doing a lot better job of this.

John Ortberg was a big part of this conference. It seems pretty obvious his goal was to make Dallas Willard accessible and applicable to the pastors in the audience. I think he splits his time accomplishing that goal and also pulling the listeners back towards an organizational, application-at-all-costs misunderstanding of what Willard is saying.

Title: The Prayer That Turns the World Upside Down

Subtitle: The Lord's Prayer as a Manifesto for Revolution

Author: R. Albert Mohler Jr.

Narrator: Tom Parks

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 45 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-23-18

Publisher: Thomas Nelson

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

A groundbreaking book from the president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary that teaches listeners how to participate in the radical, transformative prayer that Jesus taught his first disciples.

The Lord's Prayer has been domesticated and tamed, turned into a safe series of comforting words and made familiar by repetition. In reality, writes Dr. Albert Mohler, the Lord's Prayer turns the world upside down, toppling every earthly power and announcing God's reign over all things, in heaven and on earth. The Lord's Prayer is the most powerful prayer in all the Bible, taught by Jesus to his own disciples. This generation of Christians desperately needs to relearn the Lord's Prayer and learn from Christ himself how we are to unleash the power and discipline of prayer.

Members Reviews:

Needed in the Church today!

Great fresh and refreshing look at one of the most well-known passages of Scripture.

This is the first book I have listened to by Mohler. I found it Biblically sound, solid, & rich.

Much needed in the church today!

Five Stars

Everyone should read this. They might stop saying the Lord's Prayer so carelessly.

Great exposition!!

Another great work by one of the leading evangelical minds of our time. The theological depth and breath in this exposition of our instructional prayer was thought-provoking and extremely well done. A must read for every evangelical Christian.
