Sinopsis

C. S. Lewis's 'Dymer' is a rich tapestry of poetic narrative, intertwining themes of love, loss, and existential exploration within a mythic framework. Written in a lush, evocative style that blends allegory with a sense of modernity, the poem reflects Lewis's innovative use of language while drawing on the traditions of epic storytelling. Set in a fantastical world, 'Dymer' follows the journey of its titular character, who must navigate the complexities of desire and self-identity amid an interplay of dream and reality, ultimately inviting readers to reflect on the human condition and the struggle between the ephemeral and the eternal. C. S. Lewis, renowned for his works on Christian apologetics and beloved children's literature, ventured into this poetic form as a way to explore deeper philosophical themes. A scholar of medieval literature and a passionate thinker, Lewis's personal experiences and theological explorations greatly influenced 'Dymer.' His understanding of mythology and the human psyche informs the poem's vivid imagery and profound questions, reflecting the duality of human experience alongside divine intention. This enchanting work is highly recommended for poetry lovers and those fascinated by allegorical depth. Lewis's 'Dymer' is a compelling read for anyone seeking to engage with a narrative that intertwines fantasy and introspection, encouraging reflection on their own journey of self-discovery and understanding in a transient world.

Ivy Zimmerman is successfully navigating her life as a young Mennonite woman, one generation removed from her parents' Old Order Amish upbringing. But when her parents are killed in a tragic accident, Ivy's way of life is upended. As she deals with her grief, her younger sisters' needs, the relationship with her boyfriend, and her Dawdi and Mammi's strict rules, Ivy finds solace in both an upcoming trip to Germany for an international Mennonite youth gathering and in her great-great-aunt's story about Clare Simons, another young woman who visited Germany in the late 1930s. 
 
As Ivy grows suspicious that her parents' deaths weren't, in fact, an accident, she gains courage from what she learns of Clare's time in pre-World War II Germany. With the encouragement and inspiration of the women who have gone before her, Ivy seeks justice for her parents, her sisters, and herself.

In this audiobook, Professor Fomum stresses the indispensability of spiritual power to accomplish the great commission of taking the glorious gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to every human being. God's purposes are tied to spirit-filled men and women; people on whom the Holy Spirit has come. 
Can God depend on you for His global and end time purposes as far as the salvation of multitudes is concerned? 
Using the Biblical examples of Gideon, Jephthah, Samson, King Saul, David, and the Lord Jesus, as well as his personal testimony, the author shows clearly that it is when the Holy Spirit came on them that they received power to accomplish God's call. 
This audiobook can be a real stimulus for you to rise to heights with God and move forward with Him. 
Listen to it and become restless until you are clothed with and function exclusively under the power from on high—the power for service.
