Title: Lord's Prayer: A Summary of the Entire Gospel

Author: Albert Haase

Narrator: Albert Haase

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:51:45

Language: English

Release date: 11-18-10

Publisher: Learn25

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Prayer

Summary:

After enjoying this insightful series of contemplative talks, your experience of the Lord's Prayer will be forever enriched.

When asked for a teaching on prayer, Jesus did not respond with a method or technique. Rather, he responded with words that captured the essence of his teaching and lifestyle. Known as the Our Father or the Lord's Prayer, his response is one of the most cherished prayers in the Christian tradition.

Throughout history, many have looked upon the Lord's Prayer as more than simply a way to pray. Tertullian, a late second-century priest of the Christian community of Carthage in North Africa, referred to it as a breviarium totius evangelii: "a summary of the entire Gospel. " Now, you too will come to see why this prayer is so important.

In this 12-conference series, Fr. Albert Haase, O. F. M. reflects upon each phrase of the Our Father in his distinctively inspirational and engaging style. You will look deeply and contemplatively at a prayer you hear or recite frequently. As you do so, you'll get a fresh glimpse of your faith through the very words Jesus gave us in Luke 11:1.

When you experience The Lord's Prayer: A Summary of the Entire Gospel, you will discover that this treasured prayer is more than a series of words to recite. It is, indeed, an inspiring guide for how to live.

Title: Creation and/or Creationism? What's a Catholic to Think?

Author: Michael D. Guinan

Narrator: Michael D. Guinan

Format: Unabridged

Length: 03:33:04

Language: English

Release date: 11-11-10

Publisher: Learn25

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Religious Studies

Summary:

God declared creation good. But the debate raging about creation in recent decades has been anything but.

If you have ever gotten lost in the storm of controversy surrounding the creationism debate, then Fr. Michael Guinan's grounding instruction is your key to understanding.

Do you believe in evolution or creation? Is man created in the image of God or the image of an ape? Should "creation science" be taught in public school science classes? These are controversial issues in America today. They grab headlines and stir up emotions, but often little progress is made in conveying key information.

The controversy, "evolution vs. creation," is actually part of a much larger conflict, one may even call it a "culture-war," but it becomes clear rather quickly that a key role is played throughout by a particular understanding of the Bible (popularly called "fundamentalist") and what it teaches. Is evolution actually in competition with Genesis?

In this course, you will see that the "science vs. religion" struggle on this issue is ultimately a false one. Other ways express more adequately the relationship between these two important and interrelated areas. After setting out some initial perspectives and surveying briefly three challenges from the past (Galileo, the rise of modern geology and the age of the earth, and biology and evolution as represented by Charles Darwin), we will survey the "evolution vs. creation" controversy as it has been played out in the United States in the 20th century.

This course provides the Catholic perspective of this heated topic, an essential resource in the 21st century world that is flooded with inaccurate media. You will find Fr. Guinan's teaching excellent and the information priceless.

Title: As a Man Thinketh

Author: James Allen

Narrator: Ray Porter

Format: Unabridged

Length: 01:02:08

Language: English

Release date: 11-01-10

Publisher: Christianaudio.com

Genres: Health & Wellness, Mindfulness & Meditation

Summary:

James Allens classic AS A MAN THINKETH. The Bestselling Classic That Inspired 'The Secret'. AS A MAN THINKETH, Allen's most famous book, today is considered a classic self-help book. Its underlying premise is that noble thoughts make a noble person, while lowly thoughts make a miserable person. In 'As a Man Thinketh,' James Allen reveals how our thoughts determine reality. Whether or not we are conscious of it, our underlying beliefs shape our character, our health and appearance, our circumstances, and our destinies. Allen shows how we can master our thoughts to create the life we want, lest we drift through life unconscious of the inner forces that keep us mired in failure and frustration. 'The Vision that you glorify in your mind, the Ideal that you enthrone in your heart-this you will build your life by, this you will become.' This principle, which others have called THE SECRET or the LAW OF ATTRACTION, was clearly and convincingly stated for the first time in 'As a Man Thinketh.' As a being of Power, Intelligence, and Love, and the lord of his own thoughts, man holds the key to every situation, and contains within himself that transforming and regenerative agency by which he may make himself what he wills.

Title: Death of the Liberal Class

Author: Chris Hedges

Narrator: Arthur Morey

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:09:00

Language: English

Release date: 10-19-10

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: American Politics, Political Ideologies

Summary:

The liberal class plays a vital role in a democracy, and posits itself as the conscience of the nation. It permits us to define ourselves as a good and noble people. Most importantly, the liberal class offers a safety valve for popular frustrations and discontentment by discrediting those who talk of profound structural change. Once this class loses its role, then democracy breaks down and the liberal class becomes an object of ridicule and hatred. The Death of the Liberal Class examines the failure of the liberal class to confront the rise of the corporate state and the consequences of a bankrupt liberalism, making the liberal class irrelevant to society at large and ultimately the corporate power elite they once served.

Title: Becoming the Beloved Disciple of John's Gospel

Author: Dan Crosby

Narrator: Dan Crosby

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:48:18

Language: English

Release date: 10-07-10

Publisher: Learn25

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Summary:

This series may change your life.

Capuchin Fr. Dan Crosby, master retreat leader, invites you to look anew at Jesus' call to discipleship, and at what that call means for us in our lives. Enjoy these talks and gain fresh insight into scripture and the Christian life.

As we know, the author of John's Gospel constantly invites us to unearth new layers of meaning in nearly everything he writes about. Thus, Scripture scholars believe the Beloved Disciple was deliberately un-named, so that all disciples encountering these passages could find themselves within them and embrace full discipleship as totally and eagerly as did this early follower of Jesus.

Through 12 lectures, Dan Crosby will examine all the passages in John referring to the Beloved Disciple. Discover, with Fr. Dan, the richness they contain for a deeper embrace of Jesus' love, and for living out that love within our own Christian community-just as the original Beloved Disciple did so faithfully in his community.

Let Fr. Dan Crosby lead you to fully embrace your call to discipleship.

Title: 7 Deadly Sins: A Catholic's Guide to Unmasking the Great Lie

Author: Philip G. Bochanski

Narrator: Philip G. Bochanski

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10:32:25

Language: English

Release date: 09-16-10

Publisher: Learn25

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Summary:

What are the seven deadly sins?

The Desert Fathers-Christian monks in the ancient Egyptian and Palestinian wilderness-strove to understand the causes and remedies of human sin and were the first to categorize temptations under the headings of the "deadly sins." This course will draw on their wisdom to gain a better understanding of how each deadly sin conflicts with God's plan of creation, redemption, and sanctification.

For almost as long as humans have been in existence, we have struggled with temptation and sin. A true sense of sin must start from the reality that human beings were created good and in harmony with their Creator, who desired also to be acknowledged as their Father. The Original Sin of our first parents-based on a terrible lie told to them by Satan-distorted human nature and impaired human freedom.

Unmasking the many and varied lies that the Enemy tells will enable us to fight temptation more effectively. Recognizing the wonderful truth of God's plan for us will give us direction and strength to take an active role in the spiritual battle.
