Author: Alistair Moffat

Dive into Northern Britain’s Dark Ages in "a book which gives a satisfying and convincing account of this little-known part of Scotland’s history" (Undiscovered Scotland). Modern communications have driven motorways and pylons through the countryside, dwarfed us with TV and telephone masts, and drastically altered the way in which we move around, see, and understand Scotland. Recent politics and logistics have established borders and jurisdictions which now seem permanent and impervious. The Faded Map looks beyond these to remember a land that was once quiet and green.

Author: Darcia Narvaez, G. A. Bradshaw
Narrator: Cindy Kay
A fascinating look into nurturing and parenting in the natural world, supplemented with original illustrations. A beautiful resource for Nature advocates, parents-to-be, Animal lovers, and anyone who seeks to restore wellbeing on our planet, The Evolved Nest reconnects us to lessons from the Animal world and shows us how to restore wellness in our families, communities, and lives. Each of 10 chapters explores a different animal’s parenting model, sharing species-specific adaptations that allow each to thrive in their "evolved nests." Psychologists Drs. Darcia Narvaez and Gay Bradshaw show us how each evolved nest offers inspiration for reexamining our own systems of nurturing, understanding, and caring for our young and each other. Alongside beautiful illustrations, stunning scientific facts, and lessons in neuroscience, psychology, and evolutionary biology, we learn to care deeper: to restore our innate place within the natural world and fight for an ecology of life that supports our flourishing in balance with Nature alongside our human and non-human family.

Free Download The Evangelical Imagination: How Stories, Images, and Metaphors Created a Culture in Crisis (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CBW4B2Z5 | 2023 | 10 hours and 19 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 284 MB
Author: Karen Swallow Prior
Narrator: Susan Hanfield
Contemporary American evangelicalism is suffering from an identity crisis-and a lot of bad press. In this book, acclaimed author Karen Swallow Prior examines evangelical history, both good and bad. By analyzing the literature, art, and popular culture that has surrounded evangelicalism, she unpacks some of the movement’s most deeply held concepts, ideas, values, and practices to consider what is Christian rather than merely cultural. The result is a clearer path forward for evangelicals amid their current identity crisis-and insight for others who want a deeper understanding of what the term "evangelical" means today. This book explores ideas including conversion, domesticity, empire, sentimentality, and more. In the end, it goes beyond evangelicalism to show us how we might be influenced by images, stories, and metaphors in ways we cannot always see.

English | ASIN: B07F46KCJT | 2018 | 15 hours and 26 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 441 MB
Author: Mark Hitchcock
Narrator: Tim Lundeen
The end times have seen a great amount of interest within the last two decades. The Iraq and Afghanistan wars, the Arab Spring, ISIS, and the Iranian stand-off have focused us on the future of the Middle East – the center of the Bible’s prophecies about the last days. Yet there hasn’t been a comprehensive overview of biblical prophecy and eschatology for more than five decades. Mark Hitchcock’s book is that comprehensive resource for the 21st-century listener. The End will provide a solid biblical foundation for Christians to explore the essential truths around this topic – the end of the world.

Free Download The Emergence of Islam (2nd Edition): Classical Traditions in Contemporary Perspective (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CCPM79BX | 2023 | 10 hours and 7 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 291 MB
Author: Gabriel Said Reynolds
Narrator: Neil Shah
Now in an updated second edition, Gabriel Said Reynolds tells the story of Islam in this brief survey, beginning with Muhammad’s early life and rise to power, then tracing the origins and development of the Qur’an juxtaposed with biblical literature, and concluding with an overview of modern and fundamentalist narratives of the origin of Islam. Reynolds offers a fascinating look at the structure and meaning of the Qur’an, revealing the ways in which biblical language is used to advance the Qur’an’s religious meaning. Reynolds’s analysis identifies the motives that shaped each narrative-Islamic, Jewish, and Christian. The book’s conclusion yields a rich understanding of diverse interpretations of Islam’s emergence, suggesting that its emergence is itself ever-developing.

Free Download The Dress Diary: Secrets from a Victorian Woman’s Wardrobe (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CCWV3ZM2 | 2023 | 9 hours and 4 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 262 MB
Author: Kate Strasdin
Narrator: Karen Cass
In 1838, a young woman was given a diary on her wedding day. Collecting snippets of fabric from a range of garments-some her own, others donated by family and friends-she carefully annotated each one, creating a unique record of their lives. Her name was Mrs. Anne Sykes. Nearly two hundred years later, the diary fell into the hands of Kate Strasdin, a fashion historian and museum curator. Using her expertise, Strasdin spent the next six years unraveling the secrets contained within the album’s pages, and the lives of the people within. Her findings are remarkable. Piece by piece, she charts Anne’s journey from the mills of Lancashire to the port of Singapore before tracing her return to England in later years.

English | ISBN: 9798889840466 | 2023 | 9 hours and 36 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 278 MB
Author: Alexis Conason
Narrator: Julie Slater
A 10-step approach to ditch diet culture, heal your relationship with food, and learn to love your body from clinical psychologist Alexis Conason. Diets don’t work – and it’s not your fault. As a culture, we’re told (and tell ourselves) that if we just lost the weight – tried a little harder, had a little more willpower, or deprived ourselves for a little bit longer – we’d be happier, healthier, and more desirable. But it’s just not true. The Diet-Free Revolution debunks the myths we’ve been sold about food, nutrition, health, and weight loss and offers an antidote to the pain and suffering caused by yo-yo diets, untenable food regimens, and quick fixes.
