Checkmate Run , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 638min

Checkmate Run is a real-life thriller that chronicles the author's life as a writer, medical student, and physician in Moscow during the turbulent 1960s and 1970s and his struggle to survive the brutal Soviet regime. Alex Loevsky is a medical student and an inspiringly rebellious poet who becomes enmeshed in a battle against the rampant cruelty of the communist rule, where the simple desire to think freely is a crime on par with treason, and being born Jewish is more than a mere hindrance. When Alex witnesses the murder of a dissident who seeks to expose to the Western world the tortuous reality of life in the Soviet Union, it leads him to the core of the human rights activists' underground. Alex's life becomes a death-dealing game of chess, where in order to survive he must remain one step ahead of his ruthless opponent - the KGB's second chief directorate. The KGB agents are vicious and closing in, and Alex's odds of escaping are bleak. The inevitable checkmate will either bring him freedom...or death. Checkmate Run is an adrenaline rush of a novel that examines the value and fragility of life, love, and freedom, which most of us take for granted. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Do Less Be More: How to Slow Down and Make Space for What Really Matters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 241min

Unleash your greatest potential by slowing down and doing less. At a time when being busy is worn as a badge of honour and we are accustomed to filling every waking moment with (often useless or unpleasant) activity, Do Less Be More explores why switching off, or at the very least slowing down, is vital to ensure we achieve what we want. Busyness is a barrier to self-reflection, a hindrance to novel solutions and a smokescreen to clarity. While cramming in one more task may feel useful, productive or even satisfying, it's not always the best use of a spare moment. In fact it will inevitably lead us to a place where we become less productive, less creative, less inspired and less satisfied with life. While we might think we don't have any space in our lives to do more of what is important to us, Do Less Be More offers listeners 21 activities to reclaim even the tiniest moments, like waiting for a coffee, to rest their brains and, in so doing, rediscover insight, inspiration and fresh ideas. Learn how to ban busy and focus on what really matters with practical ways to say no and embrace silence, space and solitude. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Pearse, Martina Sheehan.

Truthwitch: A Witchlands Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 882min

On a continent ruled by three empires, some are born with a "witchery", a magical skill that sets them apart from others. In the Witchlands, there are almost as many types of magic as there are ways to get in trouble - as two desperate young women know all too well. Safiya is a Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lie. It's a powerful magic that many would kill to have on their side, especially among the nobility to which Safi was born. So Safi must keep her gift hidden, lest she be used as a pawn in the struggle between empires. Iseult, a Threadwitch, can see the invisible ties that bind and entangle the lives around her - but she cannot see the bonds that touch her own heart. Her unlikely friendship with Safi has taken her from life as an outcast into one of reckless adventure, where she is a cool, wary balance to Safi's hotheaded impulsiveness. Safi and Iseult just want to be free to live their own lives, but war is coming to the Witchlands. With the help of the cunning Prince Merik (a Windwitch and ship's captain) and the hindrance of a Bloodwitch bent on revenge, the friends must fight emperors, princes, and mercenaries alike, who will stop at nothing to get their hands on a Truthwitch. ungekürzt.

Bible Translation in advancing the Gospel of Christ in Takad Land (eBook, PDF)

Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, , language: English, abstract: This paper is about the contribution of Bible translation in advancing the gospel of Christ in Takad land. The study aims primarily at Bible translation as a foundation for Christian mission and learning, which the use of mother tongue has been said to be more impactful. In the study, it was found out that from the original language, there has been a long history with various reasons for advancing Bible translation that were either genuine or non-genuine, ranging from reading the word of God; the necessity of preserving the religious legacy; educational need to selfishness. In particular, since the 19th and 20th century, the significance of the Bible translation in driving mission work worldwide especially the tertiary version increasingly became indisputable among the relevant stakeholders. It was also found out that nothing is more important than one to hear the wonders of God in a language that speaks to one's heart, the mother tongue, a confirmation of how Pentecost was accepted. The study of the Takad project strongly revealed that lack of understanding of scripture by the language speakers has been a hindrance to the growth of the gospel. Furthermore, the use of a secondary language such as Hausa or English in communicating the gospel to the Takad language speaker has not been effective, as the gospel message is not fully understood. The study revealed that adopting the Takad Bible will not only enhance the advancement of the gospel in Takad land, it will also serve as a foundation of learning the Takad language by the various Takad dialects.

The Mentor Myth: How to Take Control of Your Own Success , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 319min

Mentors are over-utilized, undertrained, and often under deliver. From an employer's perspective, assigning a mentor is often a band aid to a larger problem. From an employee's perspective, a lack of formal mentorship is seen as a serious, career-inhibiting problem, the equivalent of sailing a boat without a rudder. In The Mentor Myth, Debby Carreau represents this dichotomy, explaining that while a mentor's counsel can be invaluable, it is not the silver bullet human resources professionals often purport it to be. The opinions of a mentor are one data point, one piece in the much more complex game of navigating a career. In fact, the increasing overreliance on mentorship can actually be a hindrance to a successful career. Instead of continually looking outward for career guidance, aspiring professionals must realize that they possess all the tools necessary to take control of their own careers by using their own strengths, capabilities, and visions of success. Through her years of experience consulting, speaking, and writing about career development, Debby has created a comprehensive, easy-to-implement guide for taking ownership of your professional success. Debby begins by helping the listener create a professional roadmap, including how to build a personal brand, project the right amount of confidence, and manage time. She addresses mentors in the context of networks and sponsors, advising the listener how to incorporate outward influences rather than be defined by them. ungekürzt. Language: English.
