    St. Louis de Montfort’s classic Total Consecration to Mary has seen a strong resurgence in recent years, with Catholics around the world consecrating themselves to Our Lady. Building off this momentum, we wanted to encourage this closeness to Jesus through Mary, but with a preparation that reflected the Church’s love for St. Thomas Aquinas.In Aquinas’s writings, we found ample resources for the task. Especially in his preaching, we discovered passages detailing the graces bestowed on Mary and the role afforded her in leading us to Christ. Special inspiration came from a passage where Aquinas describes what motivates religious to consecrate themselves. He writes that it is their great desire to “offer to God all that one has.” Wow! That struck a chord.We wrote this book to assist others in offering all that they have in consecration, with the Angelic Doctor as a teacher and guide. After all, it’s not just religious who are called to holiness. We all are!It is our hope that this method will captivate you like it has us, and lead you to closer union with Jesus as you offer yourselves to Him through Mary. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    It was planned decades before his birth, and neither his knowledge nor agreement were required. It was just another aspect of his legacy. As the ninth duke of Ashfield, John Mason could deny the claim. He could ignore the summons. He could refuse to abide by the contract. A bond forged on the moors of Scotland as recompense for a life saved, his life was given. By refuting, he risked not only his honor, but the word and honor of his late father, and this he could not allow. Thus, their father’s maneuvers afforded the duke an unwanted bride. Past slights garnered an unknown enemy. And schemes conceived before his time gained him an unforeseen adversary. Come with Lord Ashfield as he travels the grandeur and opulence of the London ballrooms, the lush foliage and vastness of the Scotland hills, and the seclusion and comfort of the English countryside. Listen in anticipation as John Mason, the duke, faces intrigue and suspense trying to decipher his enemies, terror as loved ones come under danger, pitfalls as mistakes are made, and a timeless love reached as he finally accepts his fate, decreed beforehand, as the promised duke. ungekürzt.

    In QE44, Andrew Charlton exposes the rift that will shape our future progress versus planet; rich versus poor. Who, then, will save us? Charlton shows there are two leading candidates: economists and environmentalists. Each says they know what is best for our grandchildren. Yet environmentalists see economists as merchants of greed with a blind faith in markets. And economists see environmentalism as an indulgence for the middle class of richer nations; those who enjoy the lifestyle afforded by economic growth, but take its source for granted. In Australia, this battle has plunged our politics into one of its most tumultuous periods, splitting the business community; driving a wedge between the left and right of the Liberal Party; separating Labor's working-class from its progressive supporters; propelling the rise of the Greens and stirring up their counterweight in rural protest. Across the globe, economists and environmentalists vie over who has the right response to climate change, population, or food security issues. In this groundbreaking essay Charlton argues that our descendants will only thank us if we find a way to preserve both the natural world and human progress. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    We were on our way back. Only one of our solar years had passed since we had been forced to leave the planet in haste, but for them, in Earth years, there had been 3,600. What would we find? Nibiru, the 12th planet of our solar system, has an extremely elliptical and retrograde orbit, which is much larger than that of all the others. In fact, it takes approximately 3,600 years to complete one revolution around the sun.  Its inhabitants, seizing the opportunities afforded by this cyclical approach, have been making systematic visits for hundreds of thousands of years, each time influencing the culture, knowledge, technology, and even the very evolution of the human race. Our ancestors have referred to them in many ways, but perhaps the name that best represents them has always been "Gods". Azakis and Petri, two friendly inhabitants of this strange planet on board the Theos spacecraft, are returning to Earth to retrieve a mysterious and precious cargo left hidden during their previous visit. A compelling and amusing story, but one that is full of suspense, with some potentially devastating reinterpretations of historical events. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Les Horovitz.

    The world looks far different today than it did before the global financial crisis struck. Reeling from the most brutal impacts of the recession, governments, economies, and societies everywhere are retrenching and pushing hard for increased protectionism. That's understandable, but it's also dangerous, maintains global economy expert Pankaj Ghemawat in World 3.0. Left unchecked, heightened protectionism could prevent peoples around the world from achieving the true gains afforded by cross-border openness. Ghemawat paints a disturbing picture of what could happen - to household income, availability of goods and services, and other quality-of-life metrics - should globalization continue to reverse direction. He then describes how a wide range of private businesses, policy makers, citizens, and the press could help open flows of ideas, people, and goods across borders, but in ways that maximize economic benefits for all. World 3.0 reveals how we're not nearly as globalized as we think we are, and how people around the world can secure their collective prosperity through new approaches to cross-border integration. Provocative and bold, this new audiobook will surprise and move you, no matter where you stand on globalization. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Pratt.
