The Doctrine of Repentance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 246min
In a world that will not tolerate the mention of sin, and in churches where it has been defined only in generic, sociological terms, one could make a good case could that repentance is one of the least used words in the English language today. Repentance is essential to true Christianity - Jesus Christ himself said that if we do not repent, we will perish - and there are few better guides that have existed in this or any other area of spiritual experience than Thomas Watson. He was well versed in both scripture and the human heart and wrote with a simplicity and directness that keeps his work fresh and powerful for the 21st century. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Constructive Conflict: Building Something Good out of All Those Arguments , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 126min
Conflict in relationships is inevitable. If you haven't had a conflict yet, you haven't been paying attention. Communication increases conflict. If you haven't had a conflict yet, you haven't really been talking. Conflict is the beginning of a real relationship, not the end. If you haven't had a conflict yet, you haven't been real. Violence is not conflict. Violence is conflict avoidance. Conflict is like electricity, it can turn on a light, power change, or burn down the house. To enjoy the benefits of conflict, you need to know how to regulate it. A short book, packed with wisdom, disarming humor, and refreshing directness, Constructive Conflict shows how you can manage your conflicts. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Pete Ferrand.

Pretending to Be Me: Philp Larkin, a Portrait , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 85min
Pretending to Be Me is an intimate, acerbic, and occasionally scurrilous show about the poet, jazz aficionado, and Hull University librarian Philip Larkin. Larkin has moved home: surrounded by packing cases, playing selections from his favourite jazz LPs, and making himself cups of tea, and later whiskies, he reflects wryly on writing and life. Hilarious and moving, the narrative shifts seamlessly between Larkin's outrageous wit and the poems, which Courtenay reads with powerful directness and simplicity. Philip Larkin, one of the foremost figures in 20th-Century English poetry, feared his epitaph would be: "They f*** you up, your mum and dad". This, and other familiar poems, including "An Arundel Tomb", "The Whitsun Weddings", and "High Windows". are included in Pretending to Be Me. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Courtenay.

How to Study: A Psychology of Study: Being a Manual for the Use of Students and Teachers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 274min
Educational leaders are seeing with increasing clearness the necessity of teaching students not only the subject matter of study but also methods of study. The recognition of this condition is taking the form of the movement toward "supervised study", which attempts to acquaint the student with principles of economy and directness in using his mind. It is generally agreed that there are certain "tricks" that make for mental efficiency, consisting of methods of apperceiving facts, methods of review, and devices for arranging work. Some are the fruits of psychological experimentation; others are derived from experience. Many of them can be imparted by instruction, and it is for the purpose of systematizing these and making them available for students that this book is prepared. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Biography of Silence: An Essay on Meditation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 153min
A publishing phenomenon in Spain: a moving, lyrical, far-ranging meditation on the deep joys of confronting oneself through silence by a Spanish priest and Zen disciple. With silence increasingly becoming a stranger to us, one man set out to become its intimate: Pablo d'Ors, a Catholic priest whose life was changed by Zen meditation. With disarming honesty and directness, as well as a striking clarity of language, d'Ors shares his struggles as a beginning meditator: the tedium, restlessness, and distraction. But, persevering, the author discovers not only a deep peace and understanding of his true nature, but also that silence, rather than being a retreat from life, offers us an intense engagement with life just as it is. Imbued with a rare beauty, Biography of Silence shows us the deep joy of silence that is available to us all. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Luis Moreno.
