  Faith That Fed Thousands: The True Story of George Müller’s Radical Trust in God 
  What happens when one man decides to rely on prayer alone to meet every need? 
  Sincere attempts to define George Müller as a preacher, evangelist, or a man who cared for the poor, fail to illustrate why you should read about him. 
  The man who cared for over 10,000 orphans and established 120 schools is best remembered for the principles by which he lived his life - principles that are now within your reach. 
  Hear, in Müller’s own words, his early days caught in theft and deceit, his conversion to Christ, his reliance upon the Bible alone as his foundation for truth. Hear of his faith – grown large enough to move mountains. 
  In this first part, Müller documents those initial mountains down the nearest penny, the thinnest spool of thread, and the last soul hungry for the gospel. All achieved without a salary, nor requesting any donation from anyone. 
  Now turned into an audiobook, with chapter headings, plus an introduction by author and narrator David G. Allen, this version of A Narration gives readers appropriate resting points, a sense of direction, and greater anticipation of each step in Müller’s journey. 
  It’s more than an autobiography. It’s a living testimony of what faith can do. 
  Explore a life whose legacy is sealed in the record books of heaven.

  Certamen Philosophicum -...

  Certamen Philosophicum: Philosophical Combat for Divine and Natural Truth by Isaac Orobio de Castro, with an introduction by Seymour Feldman, a foreword by Jean-Pierre Rothschild, and a prologue and translation by Walter Hilliger. Narration is provided by Dan Hilliger, A.A.C., and it is published by Le Cercle Hilliger. 
  This work delves into the correspondence between Isaac Orobio de Castro and Jan Bredenburg, highlighting the superiority of classical philosophy over the flawed reasoning influenced by Spinoza's ideas. Through meticulous logical analysis, Orobio exposes the inherent contradictions in modern philosophical materialism. He argues that Spinoza and his contemporaries disguise a new pantheistic atheism that replaces God with "Nature," relying on sophisms that ignore the common foundations of logic, grammar, metaphysics, and ontology. 
  Orobio rejects the fragmentation of truth between science and religion, defending the convergence of scientific and religious thought through simultaneous and logical truths. This allows for a rational understanding of the existence of a necessary being, creation from infinite possibilities, and the limitations of finite agents. 
  "Certamen Philosophicum" is an essential reference for those exploring the interaction between reason, faith, and existence. It is a crucial read for philosophers, theologians, and anyone interested in the classical foundations of faith in relation to reason. This translation aims to make Orobio's work accessible to contemporary readers and illuminate the connections between his classical context and modern existential questions. 
  Isaac Orobio de Castro (1617-1687) is recognized as a prominent anti-modernist in 17th-century philosophy.
