    God made your heart for love, joy, peace, and wholeness. But pastors say that more than 90% of their congregations struggle with unforgiveness - and unforgiveness can make us forget what we were made for. What if the most pervasive sin of our day is invisible, hidden deep inside our hearts? What if it affects every aspect of our lives and relationships so quietly and insidiously that most of us miss it altogether? Bruce Wilkinson believes unforgiveness is that sin. Through the teachings of Jesus, The Freedom Factor reveals the link between our suffering and our unforgiveness. But it also shows how to forgive - for real and forever. The story doesn't have to end with the pain of our wounds. Whatever happened to us happened. But the God who made your heart has shown a way past the wounds, back to the life and love that we were made for - a path toward freedom. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bruce Wilkinson.

    From one of the most internationally admired political thinkers, a controversial polemic on the failures of identity politics and what comes next for the left - in America and beyond.Following the shocking results of the US election of 2016, public intellectuals across the globe offered theories and explanations, but few were met with such vitriol, panic, and debate as Mark Lilla’s. The Once and Future Liberal is a passionate plea to liberals to turn from the divisive politics of identity and develop a vision of the future that can persuade all citizens that they share a common destiny. Driven by a sincere desire to protect society’s most vulnerable, the left has unwittingly balkanized the electorate, encouraged self-absorption rather than solidarity, and invested its energies in social movements rather than party politics. Identity-focused individualism has insidiously conspired with amoral economic individualism to shape an electorate with little sense of a shared future and near-contempt for the idea of the common good. Now is the time to re-build a sense of common feeling and purpose, and a sense of duty to one another. A fiercely argued, important book, enlivened by acerbic wit and erudition, The Once and Future Liberal is essential listening for our times. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charles Constant.

Your college mate, office colleague, or someone in your family may be hiding the fact they are sociopaths or worse - psychopaths. Unlike other disorders, sociopathy or psychopathy goes undiscovered because those who are afflicted by it are known to use subterfuge and deception. Why bother about such people if they are so difficult to identify? It is important for you to identify such people and take positive and affirmative action by avoiding them altogether. They can do serious damage to your life. They work insidiously and take advantage of you. They are manipulative and just don't care about your welfare. A bulldozer may well run over you for all they care. Psychopaths are a very dangerous breed of animals that simply don't have something called a conscience.

    One summer day, Margaux Fragoso meets Peter Curran at the neighborhood swimming pool, and they begin to play. She is seven; he is 51. When Peter invites her and her mother to his house, the little girl finds a child’s paradise of exotic pets and an elaborate backyard garden. Her mother, beset by mental illness and overwhelmed by caring for Margaux, is grateful for the attention Peter lavishes on her, and he creates an imaginative universe for her, much as Lewis Carroll did for his real-life Alice. In time, he insidiously takes on the role of Margaux’s playmate, father, and lover. Charming and manipulative, Peter burrows into every aspect of Margaux’s life and transforms her from a child fizzing with imagination and affection into a brainwashed young woman on the verge of suicide. But when she is 22, it is Peter—ill, and wracked with guilt—who kills himself, at the age of 66. Told with lyricism, depth, and mesmerizing clarity, Tiger, Tiger vividly illustrates the healing power of memory and disclosure. This extraordinary memoir is an unprecedented glimpse into the psyche of a young girl in free fall and conveys to listeners—including parents and survivors of abuse—just how completely a pedophile enchants his victim and binds her to him. ungekürzt.

    As heard on BBC Radio 4's Front Row: the radical dystopian classic, lost for forty years: in a nightmarish Britain, THEY are coming closer.'A creepily prescient tale ... Insidiously horrifying!' Margaret Atwood'A masterpiece of creeping dread.' Emily St. John MandelThis is Britain: but not as we know it. THEY begin with a dead dog, shadowy footsteps, confiscated books. Soon the National Gallery is purged; eerie towers survey the coast; mobs stalk the countryside destroying artworks - and those who resist.THEY capture dissidents - writers, painters, musicians, even the unmarried and childless - in military sweeps, 'curing' these subversives of individual identity.Survivors gather together as cultural refugees, preserving their crafts, creating, loving and remembering. But THEY make it easier to forget ...Lost for half a century, newly introduced by Carmen Maria Machado, Kay Dick's They (1977) is a rediscovered dystopian masterpiece of art under attack: a cry from the soul against censorship, a radical celebration of non-conformity - and a warning.'Delicious and sexy and downright chilling ... Read it!' Rumaan Alam'Crystalline ... The signature of an enchantress.' Edna O'Brien'I'm pretty wild about this paranoid, terrifying 1977 masterpiece.' Lauren Groff'Deft, dread filled, hypnotic and hopeful. Completely got under my skin.' Kiran Millwood Hargrave'Lush, hypnotic, compulsive ... A reminder of where groupthink leads.'

    Gonji, the demon-stalked warrior with the soul of his samurai forebears and the heart of his Viking mother, surges on through legend-haunted medieval Europe, seeking the key to his mysterious destiny… His infamy - and celebrity! - has seen a militant cult spawned by his legend and philosophies. Thus, Gonji must face superstitious persecution from both religious and secular hierarchies, while dealing with deadly human and unknown supernatural assassins dedicated to destroying him and his band of loyal warriors. Facing almost certain death, Gonji must make a grim decision. His ally, the enigmatic golden werewolf Simon Sardonis, has come to him with an earnest plea for help in France against a monstrous enemy of his own: the brutal, shape-shifting Farouche Clan. These are demonic invaders from another world, with whom Simon shares an eerie kinship. Their savagery overwhelms even Simon's formidable power, and now they threaten the woman with whom he has come to share love. But worse still, the Farouche fiends are the vanguard of a tyrannical, inter-dimensional conspiracy. A conspiracy which has insidiously snared Gonji himself in its age-old web of evil dominance. But can even the skillful samurai Gonji and the massive werewolf Simon together raise an effective force against such colossal evil, when the armies of their world refuse to help? Is there any force mighty enough to battle another sphere's dark sorcery, when it devours all before it with…a hungering of wolves? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Brian Holsopple.
