Title: Senior Saints

Subtitle: Stop Living like You Are Already Dead!

Author: Jamie Buckingham

Narrator: Bruce Buckingham

Format: Unabridged

Length: 53 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-20-17

Publisher: Risky Living Ministries, Inc.

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

It is God's purpose and plan for us all to grow old and to go through physical changes. But it is not God's purpose for us to grow old and stop serving Him.

Everything changes because our God is a God of change. There is nothing stationary about God. He is always moving and progressing forward and, as Christians, we are part of something God is doing, regardless of our age or physical condition. So regardless of how old you are or how you feel physically, God still has something for you to do for His kingdom. Regardless of age, you have high value to God.

God does not want his people to retire from His service. He needs you now more than he has ever needed you in all your life. He needs you during all of your living years. I don't see any place in God's concept for life that people retire and sit in a rocking chair all the rest of their days. That is not God's plan for your life. Stop living like you are already dead!

Be excited about your future regardless of how long your past goes back. The doors ahead of you are open. Be creative and productive all the way up to the time God calls you home. Get involved in your church or community organization. Be a light to the world and shine until your last breath. Don't let your age or physical inabilities ever stop you from doing what God is asking you to do. Grab hold of your eternal vision and God will use you for that ministry He still has planned for you.

As you see how the Helper moved in the lives of the disciples and apostles, you'll begin to recognize the uniquely supernatural expressions of the Holy Spirit in your own daily life. Your faith will be encouraged as you discover how a Spirit-led life means Spirit-filled help, no matter what you may face.

Infusing Your Life with God's Presence & Power is a beautiful reminder of God's presence in our lives

Sarah Bowling's In Step with the Spirit: Infusing Your Life with God's Presence & Power is a beautiful reminder of God's presence in our lives, even in the midst of chaos and struggling.

Bowling writes with spiritual and pastoral wisdom to discern the Spirit's guidance in every moment in our lives. But Bowling is also careful to remind us that that guidance is not always comforting; sometimes God's Spirit will lead us into the wilderness -- just as it did Jesus -- and that often our experiences don't look like what we expect them too but that does not mean the experience can't still be amazing.

I was particularly drawn to her wisdom about how to handle closed doors in chapter 4.

This is a beautiful, and timely, book.

I received a free copy of this book from Chosen Books in exchange for my honest review here.

A Closer Walk with the Spirit

Most Christian religions teach a lot about God, the Father and Creator, and about Jesus, our Savior, but neglect to teach about the Holy Spirit, the third Person in the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus left the Spirit to guide us with its gifts of wisdom, counsel, knowledge, fortitude, etc., and bless us with its fruits of kindness, love, joy, peace, gentleness and self control, it seems unlikely that we should overlook the Spirit. For those of us who want to know more, this book is the key to establishing a close relationship with the Spirit as we get to know him.

There is so much to know about the Holy Spirit and how to live, work and be guided by him! Sarah Bowling lays it all out in a reader-friendly format. Most Christians are hungry for knowledge of the Spirit and all of us need his guidance. It is there for the asking.

Members Reviews:

Helps focus on different aspects of ADVENT.

I thought the editors did a good job on taking bits and pieces of prior NT Wright Commentaries FOR EVERYONE and placing them in a thematic format for celebrating and contemplating Advent. Worked for us. Might have been better if there were a few more specifically ADVENT notes that Professor Wright could have added.

Publisher's Summary:

The Christmas season is a particularly difficult time for women to slow down and relish what's right in front of them. An annual marker for many, it is a holiday that can often remind us how life is not going as we'd planned. Our family relationships remain strained, our finances stretched, and our schedules stuffed with too much to do in too little time.

Following the formula of her successful Loving My Actual Life, Alexandra Kuykendall shares with listeners her own personal experiment to be completely present in her life as it is during the holiday season. Addressing the themes of Advent and Christmas, she reflects on hope, love, joy, peace, and relishing the season, with practical pullouts on common Christmas stressors, such as finances, schedules, and extended family. Kuykendall's signature candor helps women go easy on themselves, remember what truly matters, and find joy in their imperfect Christmases.

Doing The Christmas Season Differently

This refreshing look at the stresses of Christmas, gives us new eyes to see how "our actual life" integrates with holiday expectations...all the while focusing on the central theme of the "babe in the manger is Emmanuel -God with us " Do the holiday different this year with intentionality and purpose....your family will thank you !

Title: Stolen Jesus

Subtitle: An Unconventional Search for the Real Savior

Author: Jami Amerine

Narrator: Carla Mercer-Meyer

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 46 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-05-17

Publisher: christianaudio.com

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 15 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Jami stole Jesus...and Jesus stole Jami

Let's be honest. The journey to discovering Jesus - Real Jesus - can be complicated, messy, and a little crazy. Just ask Jami Amerine. Banned from the Mormon church as a child, she's spent the rest of her life trying to reconcile Fifth-Grade Jesus, Catholic Jesus, and Americanized Jesus (just to name a few).

But when she met Real Jesus, everything changed.

You can meet Him, too - right here, just as you are. With designer coffee in hand or with your jar of pickles for lunch. (Jami will tell you that story in chapter one.) If you've ever felt confused by the conflicting representations of Jesus that you've encountered in the world, you're invited to join Jami's quest to release all the wrong ideas and get to know Jesus as He really is - bewildering grace and all.

(Oh, and Stolen Jesus? He sits on Jami's mantel. You'll get to meet Him too!)

worth the time

well written and eye opening book. enjoyed the reader's delivery style on a topic that is worth further discussion.

Jami Amerine Rocks!!!

This book was so easy to read, and to listen to. I love hearing all about the shenanigans of the Vandals and Jami's heart for the REAL Jesus!! It's a must read for every woman.

Worth your time

Great book filled with wonderful and thoughtful moments throughout. We all can benefit from more of real Jesus.

Stolen Jesus will steal your faulty theology

Where does Stolen Jesus rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

Which character as performed by Carla Mercer-Meyer was your favorite?

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

This book had me hooked from the title. It is both a fast read and a deep, contemplative, chew-on-it, wrestle-with-it book. I read it in just a few days, yet parts of it remained with me, and I am still pondering how it impacts my theology. I, too, have created some fictional Jesuses, as I believe we all have. Which ones is dependent on the lens through which we view the world. Goodbye Idol Jesus and Americanized Jesus. My prayer is to seek The Real Jesus and to be in relationship with Him! I received an ARC from the publisher.

Yes!!!!!!

Such an amazing book!!! Read it, let it wash over you. You are the daughter of a King!!!!

Title: Saint Bonaventure: The Soul's Journey into God

Author: Br. William Short OFM STL STD

Narrator: Br. William Short OFM STL STD

Format: Original Recording

Length: 4 hrs and 55 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-22-17

Publisher: Now You Know Media Inc.

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Taught by one of the leading experts on Franciscan spirituality, this is the course on St. Bonaventure that you have always wanted.

In the fall of 1259, the Franciscan theologian St. Bonaventure traveled from his home in Paris to the mountain of La Verna in Tuscany for a retreat. There, he meditated on the experience St. Francis had on that same mountain, where he experienced a profound vision and the stigmata.

On his retreat Bonaventure discovered that St. Francis was a model for how a person comes to union with God in prayer. The result of this insight was the outline of a book that soon became a classic of Catholic spiritual reading: The Soul's Journey into God. Now you, too, can discover the inspiring model of St. Francis as outlined by St. Bonaventure. Bonaventure talks about this spiritual journey as taking place in six steps, like the six days of creation. On each step of the journey, he explores a new dimension of our relationship with God. Bonaventure presents us with a mystical theology, leading us step by step from reflection on the world around us, through reflection on our inner world as human beings, toward the world above us, the divine life of the Holy Trinity.

Bonaventure shows us Christ as the beginning of this journey, its end, and the way that connects them. Join St. Bonaventure on this powerful journey today. You will cherish this experience.

Title: A Taste of Jesus

Subtitle: Growing the Fruit of the Spirit

Author: Jamin Bradley

Narrator: Jamin Bradley

Format: Unabridged

Length: 13 hrs and 46 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-21-17

Publisher: Jamin Bradley

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

A Taste of Jesus is an in-depth look at the characteristics that are meant to make up the Christian's life: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Bradley explains just how radical and counter-cultural these fruits are when they are grown in fullness. These are the characteristics of the upside-down, backwards Kingdom of Heaven and when we live like we're residents there, we begin to give people a real taste of Jesus, who is living inside of us via the Holy Spirit. This is by no means meant to be an easy audiobook to absorb, for the fruit of the spirit constantly butts heads with our flesh - but if you feel uncomfortable, maybe that's okay. Embrace it and see what God does.

In some ways, the original book was built to be an audiobook. Background sounds illuminate the opening story. Intermissions break up the chapters fluidly. You can actually hear the original music at the end of the audiobook rather than just listen to the lyrics. And on top of this, A Taste of Jesus is brought to you by an avid audiobook listener, and experienced audiobook narrator.

Jamin Bradley is ordained in the Free Methodist Church and is the lead pastor of 1208 Greenwood in downtown Jackson, MI. He and his wife Jodi have two energetic kids named Beckett and Jericho, who love to keep them on their toes. Outside of pastoring and writing, Jamin loves video games, board games, grilling, entertaining guests, writing, recording, and playing music.

Beautiful and Challenging Book

Jamin Bradley delivers content in this book that is full of beautifully constructed reminders and stories that teach the reader. Each topic is thought-provoking, real, relevant, and needed. I, especially, found the chapter on joy convicting. "If we want to find joy, we need to simply turn our attention to God and embrace the happiness we find there." Thank you, Jamin, for a great read!

Title: Theology and Science

Narrator: Dr. Matthew C. Ogilvie PhD

Release date: 08-21-17

Publisher: Now You Know Media Inc.

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

You will be informed, fascinated, and enthralled by this unique course.

Debate between science and theology rages on with no sign of abatement. This course sets the terms of the debate in context historically, theologically, and scientifically, giving you a deep understanding of the issues.

Through this series of 12 lectures, professor Matthew Ogilvie examines the historical trends and themes since the 17th century in the relationship between theology and science. He focuses especially on issues regarding evolution and Catholic theology. Throughout the course you will be considering the question, "How should science and theology be related?" The course conclusion will address that question explicitly and propose how Christians can be both faithful to their religious tradition and intellectually authentic in an age of science.

Along the way, you will deal with the achievements and challenges of Darwin's theory of natural selection. You'll explore the vital yet often neglected work of Pope John Paul II on science. Examine the Church's developing understanding of the Galileo case. Learn what the fuss about intelligent design theory is all about.

You'll examine the scientifically inspired atheism of Richard Dawkins and see how he presents a caricature of theism and fails to account for a sophisticated understanding of God or faith. Next, explore bioethics, a key intersection of science and theology. You'll review the principles of Donum Vitae and explore John Paul II's description of the "Culture of Death".

Science and theology are vital and productive fields. Understand how they relate and differ. Through this course, you will gain a deep understanding of how we can be both faithful and scientific.

Title: Who Is God? Exploring Our Trinitarian Faith

Author: Fr. John Randall Sachs SJ

Narrator: Fr. John Randall Sachs SJ

Format: Original Recording

Length: 5 hrs

Language: English

Release date: 08-21-17

Publisher: Now You Know Media Inc.

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Embark on a journey through the theology of God.

Nothing is more fundamental to our existence than the search for God. Masterfully taught by Jesuit priest and systematic theologian Fr. John Randall Sachs, this course takes you on a powerful theological exploration. You will learn about the origin and early development of the Catholic Church's teaching about God, its foundation in the experience and biblical witness of our spiritual ancestors, and its relationship to our own faith experience of the Trinity. The Christian doctrine of the triune God lies at the heart of the Catholic faith, and, yet, for many, it can seem abstract.

Now, this essential, 12-lecture program provides you with a powerful, accessible exploration of Trinitarian theology. As you explore the central tenets of the doctrine of God, you will come to understand its profound implications for the Christian life. At the center of our lives is a Holy Mystery, the source and horizon of our deepest desires. Christians believe that this Holy Mystery has drawn near and revealed itself in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

Enjoy this wonderfully taught course on the greatest of subjects. The glory of God is the human person fully alive.
