    Is Jesus God? Does God even exist? When Eric Hansen and Maria Menklin clash over some of Christianity’s most compelling theological questions, sparks fly. This oratory adventure between two university students and their professor of divinity will have you rethinking everything you thought you knew about following in Jesus’ footsteps. Reading this first book in The Apology Trilogy may kindle an empathy for Christians on either side of the fence and move you to pick up your Bible again and dust it off.  
    Author Richard Calkins carefully weaves the tale of Eric and Maria’s banter as they navigate through scriptural teachings, including Jesus's Sermon on the Mount, and commonly-held interpretations. Presenting both sides of each argument, Calkins builds the case as a lawyer would in court and leaves the reader to decide where truth lies. 
    Do you wonder why there are so many different Christian denominations? Do you wonder if people are reading from the same Bible? Join Eric, Maria and the don on their quest for authentic answers to life’s burning questions.

    How long, exactly, had June been coming to Moonie's for the sole purpose of pining after the bartender? 
     
     
     
    Long enough to know, probably, that there was no good reason for Mal Edwards, a bastion of stability and good sense, to see any kind of future with June anyway. Was it even fair to express feelings to a woman like that when June was barely around, on the road more than she wasn't? 
     
     
     
    But as another Pride weekend approaches, June's fiftieth birthday and the eventual end of her long-haul trucking days loom in her mind, nestled against the memories of Moonie's nights gone by where it felt like June and Mal came close—close to something happening, something real. Until June would inevitably chicken out, and retreat once again to life on the road. 
     
     
     
    It's time for June to finally figure out her next act. And if she's not brave enough to ask Mal Edwards to be part of it, she doesn't deserve her, anyway. 
     
     
     
    After all. If you can't tell a butch you love her during Pride, when the hell can you? 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Step into a story that’s equal parts comedy, drama, and heartfelt exploration of the human spirit. Anxious People follows a botched bank robbery that spirals into an unexpected hostage situation, bringing together a colorful cast of characters in the most unlikely of settings—an open house apartment viewing. Each person trapped in that small space carries unique struggles, anxieties, and secrets that slowly surface as the tension (and humor) builds. 
    Through shifting perspectives, we dive into the minds of the “hostages,” discovering their regrets, dreams, and fears. From a quirky elderly woman to a bickering married couple, from a troubled soon-to-be parent to a bitter but wealthy businesswoman, everyone has something they’re hiding. Even the would-be robber turns out to be more human than anyone expected. As they confront each other’s—and their own—insecurities, they forge unlikely friendships, finding strength in vulnerability and a surprising sense of community. 
    Narrated with warmth, wit, and wisdom, Anxious People is a tale about forgiveness, empathy, and the beauty of human connection. It reminds us that even in our most anxious moments, there’s room for laughter, love, and unexpected transformations. Perfect for listeners looking for a blend of humor and heart, this audiobook will leave you reflecting on life’s challenges with a renewed sense of resilience and hope.
