    From Jesse Andrews, author of the New York Times best-selling Me and Earl and the Dying Girl and screenwriter of the Sundance award-winning motion picture of the same name, comes a groundbreaking young adult novel about music, love, friendship, and freedom as three young musicians follow a quest to escape the law long enough to play the amazing show they hope (but also doubt) they have in them. Inspired by the years he spent playing bass in a band himself, The Haters is Jesse Andrews' road trip adventure about a trio of jazz camp escapees who, against every realistic expectation, become a band. For Wes and his best friend, Corey, jazz camp turns out to be lame. It's pretty much all dudes talking in jazz voice. But then they jam with Ash, a charismatic girl with an unusual sound, and the three just click. It's three and a half hours of pure musical magic, and Ash makes a decision: They need to hit the road. Because the road, not summer camp, is where bands get good. Before Wes and Corey know it, they're in Ash's SUV heading south, and The Haters' Summer of Hate Tour has begun. In his second novel, Andrews again brings his brilliant and distinctive voice to YA, in the perfect book for music lovers, fans of The Commitments and High Fidelity, or anyone who has ever loved - and hated - a song or a band. This witty, funny coming-of-age novel is contemporary fiction at its best. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Crouch.

    Many pastors struggle to translate their theological beliefs into fruitful ministry in the places they are called to reach. It’s not enough to simply know what to believe (theology), or on the other hand, how to do ministry (methodology) - they need something in between. They need help thinking about ministry in a culture that no longer believes Christianity is a force for good, let alone the source of ultimate revealed truth in the person of Christ. This unabridged audiobook, a collection of 12 essays by Timothy Keller, outlines a theological vision for ministry that is organized around three core commitments: Gospel-centered: The gospel of grace in Jesus Christ changes everything, from our hearts to our community to the world. It completely reshapes the content, tone, and strategy of all that we do; City-centered: With a positive approach toward our culture, we learn to affirm that cities are wonderful, strategic, and underserved places for gospel ministry; and Movement-centered: Instead of building our own tribe, we seek the prosperity and peace of our community, as we are led by the Holy Spirit. A theological vision creates a bridge between doctrine and expression, a balance between cultural engagement and countercultural distinctiveness. Written by a practitioner for practitioners, Center Church will provoke serious reflection, creative adaptation, and decisive action. It can be used by groups or individually and includes questions for discussion and reflection. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Parks.

    Art Mortell, as a motivatonal speaker, explains why, when successful people reach a crossroads, rather than take the safe path, they become more courageous. They make adjustments that accelerate their recovery. Rather than depend on the 10 negative addictions to cope with anxiety and stress, they thrive on stress by using the four positive addictions. Successful people’s self-esteem is not based on whether they win or lose, fail or succeed or are loved or rejected, but is based on their own sense of value. Failure is a maturing process that makes them more resilient. They take the challenge seriously, of developing their talents, while being amused by their own frailties and frustrations. Art Mortell explores examples of overcoming obstacles from the lives of Marilyn Monroe, Muhammad Ali, and Michael Jackson in this engaging audio. Adversity renews your humility, sharpens your objectivity, and gives you insight into where change might occur. Stressful situations like management of anger, rather than causing depression, will stimulate your creativity. Negative feedback becomes the information you need to make changes in your course of direction. Instead of taking rejection personally, you can convert your vulnerabilities into new resiliencies. Imagine all the opportunities you can explore by replacing negative addictions with positive ones! You will discover how to gain trust and credibility, manage anger, and build relationships that assure results. Through these powerful self-coaching techniques, you will discover when to break-down your objectives into stepping-stones, stretch yourself without feeling overwhelmed, develop ideal role models, and make commitments to people important to you. ungekürzt.

    Budgeting Is More Liberation than Limitation takes a holistic look at your finances and budget. It highlights the importance of creating and following a budget by speaking to the one thing that everyone understands: freedom. While providing practical examples and insights, this book shows you how budgeting and actively managing your finances can give you the freedom to live the life you desire. Did you know that the single biggest reason why families run into financial difficulty or amazing startup businesses fail is because of cash flow problems caused by poor or, worse, non-existent budgeting? I know, you're probably rolling your eyes at the thought, or you feel trapped and get sweaty palms at the thought of budgeting. Here's the thing - you're not alone. I am here to tell you that living the life of your dreams may not be as stressful or expensive as you think. There are some surprisingly simple but extremely powerful techniques that you can use right now to get more for your money, just by using it a bit smarter. This won't require an enormous amount of willpower or any "extreme" commitments. And although budgeting is part of the process, budgeting does not mean cheap, lower value, sacrifice, or struggle. In fact, by learning to budget your money and therefore use it more efficiently, you will actually end up with nicer things and more money for the things that really matter to you. Learning to manage your money and make smart financial decisions will empower you to live a life that you absolutely love. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sophia Delayna.

    The three Faery Bargains novellas in a book length collection (also available in paperback & hardcover). "Blood Martinis & Mistletoe" (Set after book 1) Half-dead witch Geneviève Crowe makes her living beheading the dead--and spends her free time trying not to get too attached to her business partner, Eli Stonecroft, a faery prince in self-imposed exile in New Orleans. A walking-dead relative and a deadly but well-paying job make the holidays a lot more complicated than anyone needs. With a killer at her throat and a blood martini in her hand, Geneviève accepts what seems like a straight-forward faery bargain. Eli's terms might make the holidays a little more bearable, but if she can't figure out a way to escape this faery bargain, she'll be planning a wedding soon. "Daquiris & Daggers" (Set after book 2) A fun spa weekend away with friends in a city free of monsters, what could be better? Gen's necromancy had been on the fritz, so a recharge sounds perfect-until she arrives in San Diego to discover that either the spa is too steps beyond weird or there's magic afoot. "Champagne & Commitments" (Set right before book 3) Half-dead witch Geneviève Crowe makes her living beheading the dead--and trying to make sense of accidentally ending up a faery princess when she ended up bonded to Eli Stonecroft, a faery prince in self-imposed exile in New Orleans. But bonded for eternity isn't enough for family and friends--of her future citizens. It's time to plan a wedding ceremony. Unfortunately there isn't enough champagne available to deal with an undead-great-grandmother, a faery king who's trying to romance Gen's assistant, and a city where Halloween is a holiday worth dying to enjoy.

    The eminent historian Richard Bushman here reflects on his faith and the history of his religion. By describing his own struggle to find a basis for belief in a skeptical world, Bushman poses the question of how scholars are to write about subjects in which they are personally invested. Does personal commitment make objectivity impossible? Bushman explicitly, and at points confessionally, explains his own commitments and then explores Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon from the standpoint of belief. Joseph Smith cannot be dismissed as a colorful fraud, Bushman argues, nor seen only as a restorer of religious truth. Entangled in nineteenth-century Yankee culture -- including the skeptical Enlightenment -- Smith was nevertheless an original who cut his own path. And while there are multiple contexts from which to draw an understanding of Joseph Smith (including magic, seekers, the Second Great Awakening, communitarianism, restorationism, and more), Bushman suggests that Smith stood at the cusp of modernity and presented the possibility of belief in a time of growing skepticism. When examined carefully, the Book of Mormon is found to have intricate subplots and peculiar cultural twists. Bushman discusses the book's ambivalence toward republican government, explores the culture of the Lamanites (the enemies of the favored people), and traces the book's fascination with records, translation, and history. Yet Believing History also sheds light on the meaning of Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon today. How do we situate Mormonism in American history? Is Mormonism relevant in the modern world? Believing History offers many surprises. Believers will learn that Joseph Smith is more than an icon, and non-believers will find that Mormonism cannot be summed up with a simple label. But wherever readers stand on Bushman's arguments, he provides us with a provocative and open look at a believing historian studying his own faith.
