What if the earliest Christians followed radically different visions of Jesus—and some were branded heretics for it? Heretical Christianities reveals the voices of the forgotten: groups like the Ebionites, Marcionites, and Montanists who offered bold, alternative gospels that once rivaled the orthodox canon. Through modern translations and contextual insights, this audiobook delivers: • Gospel of the Ebionites & Fragments from Jewish-Christian sects – Emphasizing Jesus’ humanity and Torah-observance. • Marcionite Teachings – Distinctive belief in a higher God of grace and rejection of the Old Testament. • The Epistle of the Apostles & Church Father Rebuttals – Insight into the theological conflicts of the 2nd century. • The New Prophecy Movement – Montanist visions, female prophets, and apocalyptic fervor. Whether you’re a theologian, history lover, or seeker of alternative spiritual narratives, this audiobook will challenge your understanding of early Christianity and offer a compelling journey into voices once silenced.Zum Buch
Harry Houdini, born Eric Weiss on March 24, 1874, was a legendary magician and escape artist who gained international fame for his daring and death-defying stunts, such as escaping from handcuffs, chains, and locked containers, often submerged underwater. His incredible physical strength, skill at manipulating locks, and next-level charitable acts made him a household name. In addition to his escape acts, Houdini was a passionate debunker of fraudulent spiritualists and mediums. He believed that their tricks were performed using natural means—not ghostly manifestations or the ability to speak with the spirits. Houdini's crusade against fake spiritualists was so intense that he even conducted experiments to communicate with his wife after death, which ultimately failed. He continued to perform and innovate until his death on October 31, 1926, in Detroit, Michigan, leaving behind a legacy as one of the greatest magicians and escape artists of all time. Never has a biography been so successful at making you feel like you are really there, reliving every moment with Harry and his wife, Bess. Whether you are a student needing information for a term paper, or simply someone who enjoys a riveting tale of gritty determination, Houdini: Master of Escape will provide you with what you need.Zum Buch
