30 Ways to Become One with God , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 74min
Unto you is given the power to create and accomplish in life the deep desires of your heart. The incarnation of God in man, as man, is this power. Freely it is given to all alike. Some intuitively realize this and bring forth great works. Others are lulled by their material acceptances from childhood to the present and never realize that within them is this unconditioned possibility. The infinite expects the finite to reproduce in its area all that which the infinite is. God’s expectation is upon you. It bids you arise from the lethargy of what you believe and move into the area of sure knowledge, which is spiritual. You may believe you cannot succeed, but God expects you to prosper and has equipped you to do so. You may believe that the world is against you, but the divine knows that in your inward parts is written a right use of the law of mind that can change the world. The power of God to accomplish does not ask for your supplication. It awaits your recognition that it is. As you act with authority, the power accepts your direction and brings to pass your dictates. Piety and meekness limit the free action of God. Sincerity and intention give it freedom to perform its full mission. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Greg Young.

Becoming China's Bitch: And Nine More Catastrophes We Must Avoid Right Now , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 965min
A manifesto for the radical center. America is frozen. We have failed to face our nation’s most crucial challenges—and we are about to pay the price. When it comes to solving our country’s problems, we have become utterly paralyzed: partisanship has lulled us into a deadlock, preventing us from taking action. Yet we can no longer ignore the inevitable catastrophes or hand them off to Washington to fix—they must be addressed now, or we will suffer the long-term consequences. In the New York Times best seller Becoming China’s Bitch, Peter Kiernan presents an unflinching manifesto in which he explores five factors that have sustained our national paralysis, then uncovers the 10 challenges that pose the greatest threat to the future of America. Presented from a fresh yet informative centrist perspective, these 10 impending catastrophes include our semi-conscious dependency on China, our lack of a centrally coordinated intelligence effort, our downward-spiraling health-care system, and the continually expanding problem of illegal immigration. In a logical, personal, and persuasive voice, Kiernan offers radical yet common-sense solutions to these challenges—solutions that every American must acknowledge and act upon before it’s too late. With provocative insight and analytical depth, Becoming China’s Bitch is the answer to securing our country’s immediate future and restoring our national soul. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Rise and Fall of Whitehall, Indiana , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 19min
When one thinks of small-town America, images of rural settings, quiet nights, neighborly hospitality, children riding bicycles and setting up lemonade stands come to mind. When one thinks of small-town America, a sense of security and traditional values ease the mind and heart into a nostalgic remembrance of simpler times. A place of front porch swings, flag poles, and "mom-and-pop" shops that seem to have been there forever and will always be. Lulled into a sense of security and permanence, one can easily forget that the American small town of today was once part of a rough and rugged frontier where survival was questionable, and hardship was certain. While some frontier towns became booming cities, others faded into little more than a spot in the road. The town of Whitehall, Indiana is one such spot in the road. Whitehall, once a growing town with factories, mills, schools, churches, stores, a bank, and a post office, now is little more than a bend in Highway 43 between the county seats of Bloomington and Spencer. The Rise and Fall of Whitehall is a brief look into the town of Whitehall, Indiana from its origins to its present state. At the end you will find a heartwarming bonus story by Kimberly Smith Musgrave entitled "The Smith Family Cabin" about one of Whitehall's most notable architectural features. ungekürzt.

The People's Necromancer: The Age of Magic, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 441min
Craving a complex, daring high fantasy? The Age of Magic series is reminiscent of the emotional roller coaster and grit of Game of Thrones with the wonder and danger of the Upside-Down from Stranger Things! Amidst the darkest days of antiquity, mankind discovers a new kind of hero. For thousands of years, mankind warred without magic. Peculiar abilities were buried in history along with the storied paladins and the mysterious dark elves who rarely ventured into human towns. That all changes at the end of the Tranquility Era, when a young man named Ashton accidentally raises his murdered best friend Clayton from the grave. Because of his mistake, Ashton becomes the focus of manhunts, armies, and the King’s judgement, but Ashton is not the biggest problem in the Kingdom of Surdel. The golden age of man is coming to a close and enemies surround the civilized world. Lulled into a false sense of security by isolation and pervasive peace, human lords hatch petty schemes to weaken their rivals and gain favor with the throne. Meanwhile, an ancient darkness stirs beneath the Great Northern Mountains and the orcish hordes grow restless just beyond the Southern Peaks. Out of the chaos at the end of the Tranquility Era, a new breed of hero arrives to forge an age of sorcery and mayhem. And into this chaos comes the Necromancer! ungekürzt. Language: English.

Drone Warfare: Killing by Remote Control , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 351min
Weeks after the 2002 American invasion of Afghanistan, Medea Benjamin visited that country. There, on the ground, talking with victims of the strikes, she learned the reality behind the "precision bombs" on which US forces were becoming increasingly reliant. Now, with the use of drones escalating at a meteoric pace, Benjamin has written this book as a call to action: "It is meant to wake a sleeping public lulled into thinking that drones are good, that targeted killings are making us safer." Drone Warfare is a comprehensive look at the growing menace of robotic warfare, with an extensive analysis of who is producing the drones, where they are being used, who "pilots" these unmanned planes, who the victims are, and what the legal and moral implications are. In a vivid, accessible style, the book also looks at what activists, lawyers, and scientists are doing to ground the drones and considers ways to move forward. In reality, writes Benjamin, the assassinations we are carrying out via drones will come back to haunt us when others start doing the same thing—to us. Medea Benjamin is a cofounder of the peace group CODEPINK and the international human rights organization Global Exchange. She has been an advocate for social justice for more than 30 years. A former economist and nutritionist with the United Nations and World Health Organization, she is also the author-editor of eight books. Her articles appear regularly in such publications as The Huffington Post and OpEd News. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Hillary Huber.

Afghanistan: A Cultural and Political History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1042min
Afghanistan traces the historic struggles and the changing nature of political authority in this volatile region of the world, from the Mughal Empire in the 16th century to the Taliban resurgence today. Thomas Barfield introduces listeners to the bewildering diversity of tribal and ethnic groups in Afghanistan, explaining what unites them as Afghans despite the regional, cultural, and political differences that divide them. He shows how governing these peoples was relatively easy when power was concentrated in a small dynastic elite, but how this delicate political order broke down in the 19th and 20th centuries when Afghanistan's rulers mobilized rural militias to expel first the British and later the Soviets. Armed insurgency proved remarkably successful against the foreign occupiers, but it also undermined the Afghan government's authority and rendered the country ever more difficult to govern as time passed. Barfield vividly describes how Afghanistan's armed factions plunged the country into a civil war, giving rise to clerical rule by the Taliban and Afghanistan's isolation from the world. He examines why the American invasion in the wake of September 11 toppled the Taliban so quickly, and how this easy victory lulled the United States into falsely believing that a viable state could be built just as easily. Afghanistan is essential listening for anyone who wants to understand how a land conquered and ruled by foreign dynasties for more than a thousand years became the "graveyard of empires" for the British and Soviets, and what the United States must do to avoid a similar fate.
