Lord Deliver Me from Negative Self-Talk 2: Unleash Your Power (Inspiration for Women) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 62min
Can you imagine what would happen if we as women united toward the common goal of eliminating negative self-talk from our lives? How much of an impact could we make in our own lives and the lives of the people we touch on a daily basis? We have tremendous influence in the home, the corporate world, the church, and society as a whole. But somehow we have begun to lose sight of the power and influence that we possess. God gave us the ability not only to birth life but to speak life to every circumstance and situation that we face. It's time for us as women of God to embrace our purpose and power. It's time to stop bashing others and talking bad about ourselves. We have to take our words and communication more seriously. Just as Eve was a gift to Adam, we are a gift to the body of Christ. It's time for us to unleash the power of God's word in our lives. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Laura Witten.

Thornwood House , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 985min
When you're all that stands between the murderous past and the fate of those you love, how far would you go to save them? When Audrey Kepler inherits an abandoned homestead in rural Queensland, she jumps at the chance to escape her loveless existence in the city and make a fresh start. In a dusty back room of the old house, she discovers the crumbling photo of a handsome World War II medic - Samuel Riordan, the homestead's former occupant - and soon finds herself becoming obsessed with him. But as Audrey digs deeper into Samuel's story, she discovers he was accused of bashing to death a young woman on his return from the war in 1946. When she learns about other unexplained deaths in recent years - one of them a young woman with injuries echoing those of the first victim - she begins to suspect that the killer is still very much alive. And now Audrey, thanks to her need to uncover the past, has provided him with good reason to want to kill again. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eloise Oxer.

The 10 Big Lies About America: Combating Destructive Distortions About Our Nation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 634min
It ain't so much the things we don’t know that get us into trouble, 19th-century humorist Josh Billings remarked. "It's the things we know that just ain’t so." In this bold and brilliantly argued book, acclaimed author and talk-radio host Michael Medved zeroes in on 10 of the biggest fallacies that millions of Americans believe about our country - in spite of incontrovertible facts to the contrary. In The 10 Big Lies About America, Medved pinpoints the most pernicious pieces of America-bashing disinformation that pollute current debates about the economy, race, religion in politics, the Iraq war, and other contentious issues. Each of the 10 lies—widely believed among elites and taught as truth in universities and public schools—is a grotesque, propagandistic distortion of the historical record. For everyone who is tired of hearing America denigrated by people who don’t know what they’re talking about, The 10 Big Lies About America supplies the ammunition necessary to fire back the next time somebody tries to recycle these baseless beliefs. Medved’s witty, well-documented rebuttal is a refreshing reminder that as Americans we should feel blessed, not burdened, by our heritage. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Medved.

Alpha-Männer. Die Wurzel aller Probleme dieser Welt: Und das hyper-männliche Prinzip, Hörbuch, Digital, 261min
Warnung! Dieses Hörbuch ist nichts für Männer, die sich selbst für ein "Alpha-Männchen" halten oder zart besaitet sind. Warum? Weil dieses Hörbuch aufzeigen wird, warum gerade "Alphas", "Hypermännchen", "echte Männer", die Ursache für das immer wiederkehrende Leid von Völkermorden, Kriegen, Zerstörung, Armut, Ungerechtigkeit, Korruption und Wirtschaftskollapsen sind. Genau diese Vorwürfe lassen sogenannte "Hypermännchen" und kritikunfähige "Alphas" erfahrungsgemäß sofort laut aufheulen und reflexartig um sich beißen. Dennoch bestimmt genau dieser Männertypus seit Jahrtausenden das Wohl und Wehe von Milliarden Menschen. Nicht etwa, weil sie die Besten und am Geeignetsten für diese Aufgabe wären, sondern vielmehr deshalb, weil es ihnen mit ihrem unbedingten Machtwillen und ihrer brutalen Rücksichtslosigkeit gelungen ist, ein ganz auf sie und ihren Egoismus zugeschnittenes Gesellschaftssystem zu etablieren: die hierarchische Pyramide. In diesem Pyramiden-System manifestiert sich das männliche Prinzip so überproportional, dass Völkermorde, Kriege, Zerstörung, Armut, Ungerechtigkeit, Korruption, Verteilungskämpfe und Wirtschaftskollapse unausweichliche Folgen sind. Glauben Sie nicht? Zu weit hergeholt und wieder mal nur böses, ungerechtes, gehässiges Männer-Bashing? Dann begeben Sie sich mit Lille Adams auf Spurensuche. Mit unverstelltem Blick. Lassen Sie dabei das perfektionierte Brain-washing, das jedem von uns in der patriarchal-hierarchischen Pyramide von Kindesbeinen an zuteil geworden ist, hinter sich. Wir wünschen Ihnen viele, erhellende Momente. deutsch. Lille Adams. https://samples.audible.de/bk/xwin/000522/bk_xwin_000522_sample.mp3.- Shop: Audible

Hellgoing: Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 315min
Winner of the 2013 Scotiabank Giller Prize. Short-listed for the Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize. Selected as an Amazon.ca Best Book and for The Globe's Top 10 Books of 2013. With astonishing range and depth, Scotiabank Giller Prize finalist Lynn Coady gives us nine unforgettable new stories, each one of them grabbing our attention from the first line and resonating long after the last. A young nun charged with talking an anorexic out of her religious fanaticism toys with the thin distance between practicality and blasphemy. A strange bond between a teacher and a schoolgirl takes on ever deeper and stranger shapes as the years progress. A bride-to-be with a penchant for nocturnal bondage can't seem to stop bashing herself up in the light of day. Equally adept at capturing the foibles and obsessions of men and of women, compassionate in her humour yet never missing an opportunity to make her characters squirm, fascinated as much by faithlessness as by faith, Lynn Coady is quite possibly the writer who best captures what it is to be human at this particular moment in our history. ungekürzt.

The New Me
"[A] definitive work of millennial literature . . . wretchedly riveting." -Jia Tolentino, The New Yorker "Girls + Office Space + My Year of Rest and Relaxation + anxious sweating = The New Me." -Entertainment Weekly I'm still trying to make the dream possible: still might finish my cleaning project, still might sign up for that yoga class, still might, still might. I step into the shower and almost faint, an image of taking the day by the throat and bashing its head against the wall floating in my mind. Thirty-year-old Millie just can't pull it together. She spends her days working a thankless temp job and her nights alone in her apartment, fixating on all the ways she might change her situation--her job, her attitude, her appearance, her life. Then she watches TV until she falls asleep, and the cycle begins again. When the possibility of a full-time job offer arises, it seems to bring the better life she's envisioning within reach. But with it also comes the paralyzing realization, lurking just beneath the surface, of how hollow that vision has become. "Wretchedly riveting" (The New Yorker) and "masterfully cringe-inducing" (Chicago Tribune), The New Me is the must-read new novel by National Book Foundation "5 Under 35" honoree and Granta Best Young American novelist Halle Butler.- Shop: buecher

Wisecracker: The Life and Times of William Haines, Hollywood’s First Openly Gay Star , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 970min
In 1930 William Haines was Hollywood's #1 box-office draw - a talented, handsome, and wisecracking romantic lead. Off screen, however, protected by a careful collaboration between studio and press, he was openly gay with reporters and studio chiefs alike. Here is Haines's virtually unknown story - rich with detail, revelations, and scandal - about silent movies and talkies; his lover Jimmie Shields, and their fifty-year relationship (Joan Crawford, their best friend, called them "The happiest married couple in Hollywood") and the enforcement of the Production Code and establishment of the Hollywood closet, which led to the blacklisting that ultimately doomed Haimes's film career. Wisecracker sweeps from gay pool parties to the excitement of early talkies to Haines's infamous encounter with gay-bashing white supremacists in 1936. He survived the scandal to emerge as a top interior decorator to the stars and to such clients as Nancy Reagan and Walter Annenberg, who employed him for the American Embassy in London. With a cast of characters running from Tallulah Bankhead to Betsy Bloomingdale, from Clark Gable to William Randolph Hearst, Wisecracker is an astounding piece of newly discovered gay history, a chronicle of high Hollywood, and - at its heart - a great and enduring love story. ungekürzt.

Caged Sanctuary , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 386min, (USK 18)
Kaden Thorn, a dental surgeon who lives a quiet life, has no hope of finding the love he craves. A vicious gay bashing cost him the use of his legs and confined him to a wheelchair. He has given up hope of finding a dom or even a non-kink partner to love him. When his best friend practically forces him to attend a dinner party, the last thing he expects is a strong dom who can see beyond his wheels. Deacon James is an architect and a demanding dom, but he has spent the past couple of years without a sub or partner. When an employee invites him to a dinner party to meet his girlfriend, Deacon smells a setup but agrees anyway. He prides himself on being an excellent judge of character, and when he meets the younger dentist, he sees past the chair and finds a sweet submissive man who more than piques his interest. Kade's fears and demons continue to haunt him, challenging Deacon to use everything he's learned as a dom to earn Kade's trust and submission. Deacon's determined, though, willing to battle all of it to have Kade by his side and at his feet. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Morey.
