    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
    In 2023, the Pacific Crest Trail was swallowed by the deepest snowpack in history. Most hikers waited for a better year. Riley laced his boots, hoisted his pack, and walked north. Snowbound is the story of one hiker’s path through 2,650 miles of relentless winter and the even harder terrain within. Battling exhaustion, river crossings, and weeks of silence, Riley confronted not just the weight of snow—but the weight of his past. Each step north was a letting go: of the version of himself shaped by fear, shame, and stories he no longer wanted to believe. From a near fall on Mt. Baden-Powell to the haunting stillness of Forester Pass, from the agony of loneliness to the quiet beauty of Leavenworth, this is a story of reckoning, resolve, and rising again. It’s not just a trail memoir. It’s a story about coming home to yourself—in the most unforgiving year on record.

    In this love letter to his father, former professional golfer Nathaniel Crosby shares memories of Bing Crosby on the golf course, and the lessons he taught him about the game and about life. With a Foreword by Jack Nicklaus. 
    “Bing Crosby was a great ambassador for our game, as well as a great man,” hails longtime friend and golf partner, Jack Nicklaus. The beloved singer and star was also an extraordinary teacher who instilled an abiding passion and mastery of the game in his youngest son, Nathaniel. Winning the US Amateur at nineteen, Nathaniel went on to compete in high-level professional tournaments for his entire life. 
    In 18 Holes with Bing, Nathaniel introduces us to the Bing Crosby he and his family knew—not the beloved singer who played golf, but a golfer who sang to pay his country club dues. Nathaniel shares exclusive stories about this American icon golfing, working, and playing with some of the most famous people in history—royalty, titans of industry, stars of stage and screen, and champions of the green, including Bob Hope, Dwight Eisenhower, Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, and Louis Armstrong. At the book’s heart is an intimate account of a father and a son—how a mutual love of golf formed an exceptional emotional bond. 
    Full of anecdotes, vignettes, and recollections of Bing’s time on the course, the tournaments he created and later sponsored, and the constant encouragement he showed his son, 18 Holes with Bing honors this celebrated golfer, entertainer, and father, and illuminates his life as never before.

I'm sorry, but . . . it seems there's been an accident."With that life-changing call in June 2014, Tad Weiss learns that his daughter, Maggie, who is ten days into a study-abroad program in Seville, Spain, has been hit by a bus while on her morning run. Within hours he and his wife, Wendy, are on a plane to Seville and to the hospital where Maggie lies in a coma. Feeling helpless and anxious to get to their daughter, they do the only thing that brings them comfort-they pray.What at first appears to be an unimaginable tragedy soon reveals itself as evidence that God is in complete control. Through the support of Wendy and an unexpected community of believers, Tad's eyes are opened to God's desire to use even the most catastrophic of events to achieve His purposes. This story of healing and spiritual reawakening is told through the viewpoint of a grief-stricken father, utilizing the posts he wrote at the time to share Maggie's progress with friends, family, and a growing number of followers.This journey of faith and uncertainty culminates in an amazing and unforeseen athletic accomplishment that wouldn't have happened if not for the accident. It is a testimony to the power of prayer, and proof that God performs miracles today, just as He always has. Anyone who loves a story of perseverance and faith will find encouragement in 25 Meters to God.

    Long before he hit the big time as the play-by-play voice of the Texas Longhorns and San Antonio Spurs, sportscaster Bill Schoening paid lots of dues. "Stories, Sports, and Songs" is a collection of 101 tales that chronicle Schoening's unlikely and often humorous radio journey. It started with the childhood dream of a 4th grader in inner-city Philadelphia and continued to small market stations in rural areas of Central Illinois and West Texas. Along the way, he wrote melodies and lyrics about his life experiences. Schoening's broadcasting career now spans over four decades, and he has spent half of those years with the Spurs, describing four NBA titles during his 21 seasons.
