    The Lord in the Fires: Increasing in the Awe of God , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 273min
    Being refined in the fires of testing is not the most popular Sunday morning message, but Paul tells us: "Beloved, do not think it's strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when his glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy." (1 Peter 4:12) With the candor, insight, and humor that have become the hallmarks of his previous books, James Maloney presents a unique teaching on the concept of being baptized with fire. (Matthew 3:11) Rather than burn us to cinders, the spirit of God wants to set us ablaze, to fashion his people into firebrands in his hand, instigating radical change in everyone around us by increasing their awe of the God we serve. The Lord in the Fires is like no other book you've heard on intimacy with God, the fear of the Lord, and the testings of our faith. Jesus promises, "Everyone will be seasoned with fire." (Matthew 9:49) The question is: will you allow the Lord in the fires to increase your awe in him, or will you let your circumstances burn you as chaff? This book helps answer that question. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Will Cate. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/048543/bk_acx0_048543_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Obfuscation (eBook, ePUB)
    How we can evade, protest, and sabotage today's pervasive digital surveillance by deploying more data, not less—and why we should.With Obfuscation, Finn Brunton and Helen Nissenbaum mean to start a revolution. They are calling us not to the barricades but to our computers, offering us ways to fight today's pervasive digital surveillance—the collection of our data by governments, corporations, advertisers, and hackers. To the toolkit of privacy protecting techniques and projects, they propose adding obfuscation: the deliberate use of ambiguous, confusing, or misleading information to interfere with surveillance and data collection projects. Brunton and Nissenbaum provide tools and a rationale for evasion, noncompliance, refusal, even sabotage—especially for average users, those of us not in a position to opt out or exert control over data about ourselves. Obfuscation will teach users to push back, software developers to keep their user data safe, and policy makers to gather data without misusing it.Brunton and Nissenbaum present a guide to the forms and formats that obfuscation has taken and explain how to craft its implementation to suit the goal and the adversary. They describe a series of historical and contemporary examples, including radar chaff deployed by World War II pilots, Twitter bots that hobbled the social media strategy of popular protest movements, and software that can camouflage users' search queries and stymie online advertising. They go on to consider obfuscation in more general terms, discussing why obfuscation is necessary, whether it is justified, how it works, and how it can be integrated with other privacy practices and technologies.

    According to the Promise: Of Salvation, Life, and Eternity , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 230min
    Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. (2 Corinthians 7:1) The first part of this audiobook is meant to be a sieve to separate the chaff from the wheat. Use it on your own soul. It may be the most profitable and beneficial work you have ever done. He who looked into his accounts and found that his business was losing money was saved from bankruptcy. This may happen also to you. If, however, you discover that your heavenly business is prospering, it will be a great comfort to you. You cannot lose by honestly searching your own heart. The second part of this book examines God's promises to His children. The promises of God not only exceed all precedent, but they also exceed all imitation. No one has been able to compete with God in the language of liberality. The promises of God are as much above all other promises as the heavens are above the earth.  About the author Charles Haddon (C. H.) Spurgeon (1834-1892) was a British Baptist preacher.

    Habits for a Powerful Day , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 28min
    Surely, New Year's resolutions are not something new or strange to anyone. Each and every one of us must have been through this: whether it is to quit smoking, or have a more balanced diet, or start saving money. How many of us can boast actual success as a result of such resolutions? Unfortunately, the data show a grim reality: as few as less than 10% manage to keep them for more than several months. Now, why is that, you might wonder? According to Mr. Mark Griffiths, professor of behavioral addiction, it is easy for people to "fall into bad habits" and, on trying to give up such habits, "it is easy to relapse." According to Mr. Griffiths, people do not stick to their resolutions mainly because they set too many of them or they are unrealistic and can thus not be achieved. It is easy to soon feel burdened and overwhelmed unless you take one step at a time, and set realistic goals. Furthermore, such people may also be "victims of false hope syndrome". Unrealistic expectations of self-change. What is it that separates the chaff from the wheat, though? And how does one go about staying on the right track? Join us and you will find not only how such goals can be set to last, but also how to go about them so as to fulfil your goals and achieve your resolutions. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Spring Chicken: Stay Young Forever (or Die Trying) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 572min
    From acclaimed journalist Bill Gifford comes a roaring journey into the world of anti-aging science - a place filled with extraordinary breakthroughs and dangerous deceptions. Spring Chicken: Stay Young Forever (Or Die Trying) Spring Chicken is a full-throttle, high-energy ride through the latest research, popular mythology, and ancient wisdom on aging and lifespan - from wrinkles and baldness down to the innermost workings of cells - that examines how human beings might be able to live longer, healthier lives. In his funny, self-deprecating voice, veteran reporter Bill Gifford takes readers into cutting-edge labs where scientists are working to achieve miraculous breakthroughs, like purging "senescent" cells from mice to reverse the effects of aging. He'll reveal what has happened with resveratrol, the "red wine pill" that made headlines a few years ago, how your fat tissue is trying to kill you, and how in the near future doctors will be able to prescribe life-extending medications uniquely tailored for each individual. Gifford separates the wheat from the chaff as he exposes hoaxes and scams foisted upon an aging society and arms readers with the best possible advice on what to do, what not to do, and what life-changing treatments may be right around the corner. A mixture of deep reporting, fascinating science, and prescriptive takeaway, this is a brilliant examination of a universal obsession: What can be done about getting old?
