  Native American Mythology - Gods...

  Native American mythology offers a rich tapestry of stories that convey the spiritual and cultural heritage of the indigenous peoples of North America. These myths, rooted in oral traditions, have been passed down through generations, serving as both entertainment and a means of preserving the values, history, and beliefs of their communities. By delving into these narratives, one gains a deeper understanding of how Native Americans viewed the world, their relationship with nature, and their connection to the divine.  
  Unlike written records, Native American myths were shared through storytelling, ceremonies, and rituals. This oral tradition allowed stories to evolve, adapting to the needs and experiences of each generation. Despite their variations, these myths often shared common themes: the creation of the world, the interconnectedness of all living beings, and the moral lessons intended to guide individuals and communities.  
  Central to many of these stories is the reverence for nature and its elements. Native American tribes saw the natural world not as a resource to be exploited but as a sacred system in which every being—whether animal, plant, or element—played a vital role. The wind, sun, moon, and stars were not mere phenomena but active participants in the world’s story, often personified as gods, spirits, or ancestors.

  "Marshaling fine-grained historical detail and scrupulous analysis, Hardwick persuades." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) 
   
   
   
  As a Black autistic pastor and disability scholar, Lamar Hardwick lives at the intersection of disability, race, and religion. Tied to this reality, he heeded the call to write How Ableism Fuels Racism to help Christian communities engage in critical conversations about race by addressing issues of ableism. 
   
   
   
  Hardwick believes that ableism—the idea that certain bodies are better than others—and the disability discrimination fueled by this perspective are the root causes of racial bias and injustice in American culture and in the church. Here, he uses historical records, biblical interpretation, and disability studies to examine how ableism in America led to the creation of images, idols, and institutions that perpetuate both disability and racial discrimination. 
   
   
   
  He then goes a step further, calling the church into action to address the deep-seated issues of ableism that started it all and offering practical steps to help listeners dismantle ableism and racism both in attitude and practice.

A captivating narrative and a piercing analysis, this book is a classic of aerial combat.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Firing the Cloud: How Humanity Survived and Accelerated is a sweeping, provocative journey through 15,000 years of human history tracing how we evolved from small, fire-lit bands of hunter-gatherers to a globally networked civilisation living inside a digital cloud. 
  The book explores the great transitions that shaped us: the Agricultural Revolution’s trade of autonomy for stability, the Industrial Age’s relentless acceleration and the Technological Era’s shift from reality to virtuality. Each chapter weaves anthropology, history, and systems thinking to reveal what we gained and what we lost at every turn. 
  Thoughtful, urgent and ultimately hopeful, this audiobook challenges listeners to become memory-keepers of the human story and to shape a future that is not only faster, but wiser.
