People Are Alike All Over: The Classic Twilight Zone Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 24min
The story that inspired the famous Twilight Zone episode! "People Are Alike All Over" (which starred Roddy McDowall) became one of the most famous episodes of that classic television series. That memorable script was adapted from veteran science fiction author Paul W. Fairman's story for Fantastic Adventures magazine, where it was published under it's original title "Brothers Beyond the Void". As the original magazine blurb described it, "To Marcusson, the thought that people are the same everywhere was comforting. Until he learned that sameness was the very thing he was fighting against!" Eerily familiar and similar to the television version, yet hauntingly different and unique, Fairman's story is wonderful by itself. But for media fans, and especially for fans of the The Twilight Zone, it offers a fascinating example of the skills and the art of adapting a story for the screen and offers a textbook case of how Twilight Zone creator Rod Serling altered and refocused good stories to make them work even better for television.This first ever audio dramatization of "People Are Alike All Over" is prefaced by introductory comments about the author, the story, and the Twilight Zone television show. Enhanced with music and sound effects this REB Audio Book was adapted, produced and performed for this presentation by Bill Mills. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Mills.

If the Church Were Christian: Rediscovering the Values of Jesus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 296min
While many denominations claim to be growing, the largest group in American religious life is the disillusioned - people who have been involved in the church yet see few similarities between the church's life and the person of Jesus. In the midst of elaborate programming, professional worship teams, and political crusades, they ask, "Is this really what Jesus called us to do?" While the church has dismissed these people as uncommitted and lacking in faith, perhaps the opposite is true. Their commitment to authentic spirituality over institutional idolatry might be the very corrective the church needs. These people respect Jesus, but question what Christianity has become. In If the Church Were Christian, Quaker pastor and author Philip Gulley explores how the church has lost its way. This eye-opening examination of the values of Jesus reveals the extent to which the church has drifted from the teachings of the man who inspired its creation. Many Christians might be surprised to discover how little Jesus had to say about the church, and that he might never have intended to start a new religion. But the church is here to stay, and Gulley is determined to help the church find its soul. If the church were Christian, Gulley argues, affirming our potential would be more important than condemning our brokenness. If the church were Christian, inviting questions would be valued more than supplying answers. If the church were Christian, meeting needs would be more important than maintaining institutions. These simple statements return us to the heart of what Jesus cared about during his ministry. Gulley provides a profound picture of what the church would look like if it refocused on the real priorities of Jesus. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Don Hagen.

Golden Horizon: "Delight Yourself in the Lord and He Will Give You the Desires of Your Heart" (Psalm 37:4) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 214min
After taking a four year hiatus from automotive sports in means to get refocused on his devotion to Christ, Cody Johnson was much content with spending the rest of his life doing open air evangelism around the urban streets and neighborhoods of Texas. Yet Jesus grants him a second chance in automotive sports through Rick Gora, an old friend and his late father's old crew chief. Rick tells Cody that the Judgment, a blue print for an advanced race car he gave Rick many weeks ago, could be the right Tier One car to dominate next year's 24 Hour of La Sarthe, and win them the partnership of Usangi-Kon Racing for the following year's International Nurburgring Series. After indeed dominating the 24 Hours of La Sarthe and winning their partnership with Usangi-Kon Racing, Catherina Celso, his new partner's beautiful lead driver, invites him to an annual family mission trip to Central America. Delighted of the offer he agrees to go and travels down with her and her sister shortly after Thanksgiving. Yet just in a couple weeks into their stay they, as well as the people they were ministering to witness a violent ambush on an opposing gang. While Cody and Catherina are sent to escort an injured mother and one of the last surviving gangsters to a nearby clinic, Cody sees one of his fellow evangelist do the unimaginable; share the Gospel with a gangster! This was amazing to him, because he knew that that particular evangelist adamantly hated them. This challenged Cody to his core wondering if he even had it in him to obey God and witness to the very one he hated; Wiebe Hramn, the man who murdered his father. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Repacking Your Bags: Lighten Your Load for the Good Life, Third Edition, Updated and Expanded , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 563min
The first and second editions of Repacking Your Bags helped people develop their own unique visions of the good life and take practical steps at home and at work to make sense of their lives and live in an authentically meaningful way. Written as a travel guide it helped people to put together a "trip checklist" that provided the elements of the good life: work, love, place, and purpose. But Leider and Shapiro came to realize that repacking is not something we do once or twice in reaction to a sense of disillusionment or frustration in our lives. Developing one’s own vision of the good life is a matter of constant and evolving choice, as the inevitable shifts and surprises life has to offer continually unfold before us. With each step along the way, it remains necessary to reexamine what has brought us here, to continue asking ourselves if the choices that have sustained us so far are continuing to do so - or if they’re just weighing us down. This edition has been thoroughly revised to make it applicable for listeners today. The changes include: Refocused message on the new life and work realities and the survival skills required to succeed More practices and experiences for "lightening your load" Fresh new stories of "people just like me", the listener A new "Repacking Journal" Addition of Leider’s immensely popular Calling Cards exercise for discovering your gifts, passions and values, with access to a Calling Cards online profile PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. ungekürzt.

Balloonacy: Balloon Fetish : Humorous Fetishes, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 29min, (USK 18)
Lucy turned her phone on as she walked toward her car. She had turned off her phone, not because Margaret had asked her too, but she knew that Matthew would have nothing better to do all day than bother with texts about the store. She dropped herself into the driver’s seat as the phone connected to the network. She had 20 missed texts from Matthew.Hey! Great first day, Lucy messaged ignoring the multitudes of balloon related questions that Matthew had.Hey haven’t heard from you all day, Matthew responded.I was busy learning my new job, Lucy replied without guilt. To her, Matthew was the guy she talked to online, not her boyfriend. She didn’t have the time to let him get too close or too familiar if she wanted to keep it that way.I know. I was just excited to hear about what it was like for you.It was certainly a new experience for me. I have been to the store many times before, but never for so long. There were some periods where I really wanted to touch the full balloons that were tantalizingly in reach.I bet.Driving home now. Call me.Lucy started the car and made her way through the parking lot. She thought of Larry still stuffed in her sock. After lunch the wet feeling of a washed Larry in her sock lingered longer than she would have liked. The feeling kept reminding her of what she had done, and that made her want to grab a handful of floating balloons and take them into the back with her. The chime of Matthew’s call refocused her attention.“Hello. Tell me what questions you have about the store.” Lucy said jumping the gun since more than half of Matthew’s texts had been questions.“Did you have to fill any balloons today?” Matthew asked breathily. ungekürzt.

The Death of Santini: The Story of a Father and His Son , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 912min
In this powerful and intimate memoir, the beloved best-selling author of The Prince of Tides and his father, the inspiration for The Great Santini, find some common ground at long last. Pat Conroy's father, Donald Patrick Conroy, was a towering figure in his son's life. The Marine Corps fighter pilot was often brutal, cruel, and violent; as Pat says, "I hated my father long before I knew there was an English word for 'hate.'" As the oldest of seven children who were dragged from military base to military base across the South, Pat bore witness to the toll his father's behavior took on his siblings, and especially on his mother, Peg. She was Pat's lifeline to a better world - that of books and culture. But eventually, despite repeated confrontations with his father, Pat managed to claw his way toward a life he could have only imagined as a child. Pat's great success as a writer has always been intimately linked with the exploration of his family history. While the publication of The Great Santini brought Pat much acclaim, the rift it caused with his father brought even more attention. Their long-simmering conflict burst into the open, fracturing an already battered family. But as Pat tenderly chronicles here, even the oldest of wounds can heal. In the final years of Don Conroy's life, he and his son reached a rapprochement of sorts. Quite unexpectedly, the Santini who had freely doled out physical abuse to his wife and children refocused his ire on those who had turned on Pat over the years. He defended his son's honor. The Death of Santini is at once a heart-wrenching account of personal and family struggle and a poignant lesson in how the ties of blood can both strangle and offer succor. It is an act of reckoning, an exorcism of demons, but one whose ultimate conclusion is that love can soften even the meanest of men, lending significance to one of the most-often quoted lines from Pat's best-selling n ungekürzt.
