  In a disorienting world, with obstacle after obstacle, and the landscape of our lives shifting in ways we never expected, we can trust that as we look to our Maker, the WayMaker, our road will lead us to arrive exactly where we always hoped it would, though maybe not at all in the way we imagined. And those dreams for our lives? They can still happen—in ways only He perfectly dreamed of.  
  It is true: heartache, grief, suffering, obstacles, they all come in waves. There is no controlling life’s storms; there is only learning the way to walk through the waves. In this audio Bible study, bestselling author Ann Voskamp hands us a map that makes meaning of life, that shows the way through to the places we’ve only dreamed of reaching, by a way we never expected. 
  Voskamp reveals how God is present in the totality of our lives, making a way:for the marriage that seems impossiblefor the woman who longs for a child of her ownfor the parents who ache for the return of their prodigalfor the sojourner caught between a rock and a hard placefor the wayfarer who feels as though there is no way through to her dreams 
  We can encounter the WayMaker in surprising ways and begin to see Him not only making poetry out of pain but working in every miraculous detail of our lives. Even now, the Way is making the way to walk through waves and into a life more deeply fulfilling than our wildest dreams.

  Can work be worship?A Good Return does not provide maxims to get you through the day. Instead, it is an audiobook that encourages Christians to view their workspace as an avenue of worship.  The world of work is expanding. New technologies, industries and means of communication, have presided in the transition of the workplace into a fast, digital and busier–than–ever era.  With increasing demands and declining rewards, in whichever sector you care to name, work can become all–consuming, overwhelming, burdensome, dissatisfying, and more. It becomes easy to complain, drag one’s feet while getting out of the door, and face daily tasks with an apathetic attitude.  When battling external pressures and internal conflicts, the workplace is a challenging environment. We need equipped to tackle so many aspects of working life:  Salaries  Wealth  Time management  Motivation  Rest and Sabbath  The secular sacred divide  Eternal rewards  Our digital technological era  Gospel support  How should the Christian navigate these areas? John C. Lennox has crafted an audiobook with thoughtful, biblical and evangelical deliberation on our behaviour in, and towards, our work. With his trademark clarity, faithfulness and wisdom, Lennox invites us into a wider discussion on Christian approaches to lots of areas of working life.

  The Making of Martin Luther

  A major new account of the most intensely creative years of Luther's career 
    
  The Making of Martin Luther takes a provocative look at the intellectual emergence of one of the most original and influential minds of the sixteenth century. Richard Rex traces how, in a concentrated burst of creative energy in the few years surrounding his excommunication by Pope Leo X in 1521, this lecturer at an obscure German university developed a startling new interpretation of the Christian faith that brought to an end the dominance of the Catholic Church in Europe. Luther’s personal psychology and cultural context played their parts in the whirlwind of change he unleashed. But for the man himself, it was always about the ideas, the truth, and the Gospel. 
    
  Focusing on the most intensely important years of Luther’s career, Rex teases out the threads of his often paradoxical and counterintuitive ideas from the tangled thickets of his writings, explaining their significance, their interconnections, and the astonishing appeal they so rapidly developed. Yet Rex also sets these ideas firmly in the context of Luther’s personal life, the cultural landscape that shaped him, and the traditions of medieval Catholic thought from which his ideas burst forth. 
    
  Lucidly argued and elegantly written, The Making of Martin Luther is a splendid work of intellectual history that renders Luther’s earthshaking yet sometimes challenging ideas accessible to a new generation of readers. 
    
  "Richard Rex's new book, The Making of Martin Luther, is brilliant in exposing the hair-raising character of his theology."—Melanie McDonagh, The Spectator

  FBI Special Agent Grace Billingsley tracks serial killers, using her skills as a psychiatrist and behavioral analyst to get dangerous people off the street and safely behind bars. But prison psychiatrist Sam Monroe knows that just because a killer is incarcerated doesn't mean they're not a threat. His own father, Peter, is a serial killer—in prison but certainly not out of Sam's life, as much as he wishes he was. 
   
   
   
  When bodies start showing up with Peter's MO, Sam and Grace are both called in to consult. They've met before—and though Grace thought they'd made a real connection, Sam ghosted her. They'll have to get past the awkwardness and mistrust to solve this case—especially because it's about to get personal. 
   
   
   
  USA Today bestselling author Lynette Eason doesn't give you time to catch your breath in this breakneck race to stop a serial killer.
