  A Walk Through the Wilderness takes the reader on a harrowing adventure through the rigid psychological manipulation of a fundamentalist cult, the many joys and sorrows during the years of recovery afterwards, the seeming hopelessness of infertility, and finally to a joy realized. 
  Being raised in a liberal Christian home, Dan never imagined the sorrows he would face as his faith evolved into fundamentalist cult status. For many years he lived under a rigid religious control structure that managed every aspect of his life and resulted in deep emotional scarring. During the years of recovery after his involvement, he and his wife Chanthy suffered through years of infertility which (combined with the cult experiences) resulted in both of them becoming atheists. There is hope, however, for Dan & Chanthy as their journey leads them through the joy of a successful adoption effort and the coming to fruition of their desires for a happy and healthy family. 
  In Dan Conger’s book we experience his faith and his doubt, his sorrows and his hopes, his joys and his expectations for a bright future. The reader is welcomed to come along on A Walk Through the Wilderness.

  Origen (c. 185 – c. 253) was the most influential Christian theologian before Augustine, the founder of Biblical study as a serious discipline in the Christian tradition, and a figure with immense influence on the development of Christian spirituality. 
   
  This volume presents a comprehensive and accessible insight into Origen's life and writings, written and compiled by Joseph W. Trigg, a leading Origen authority. An introduction analyzes the principal influences that formed him as a Christian and as a thinker, his emergence as a mature theologian at Alexandria, his work in Caesarea and his controversial legacy.  
   
  Fresh translations by Joseph Trigg, of a representative selection of Origen's writings, including some never previously available in print, show how Origen provided a lasting framework for Christian theology by finding through study of the Bible a coherent understanding of God's saving plan. Among the Origen’s original works presented on this recording are Commentaries on Psalms, Lamentations and Genesis; and Homilies on Jeremiah, Luke and Samuel.

  Me Too: A Therapist's Journey to...

  Demarra West

  A story of trauma, survival, and healing, narrated in the author’s own voice. 
  This gripping and emotional journey takes you through Demarra's triumph over the adversity of complex childhood trauma into a life rooted in joy, purpose, and love.  
  Demarra’s earliest memory of trauma came at six although the violence she witnessed at the hands of her stepfather was present long before that. By the time she was thirteen, Demarra experienced eight Adverse Childhood Experiences which nearly caused her to take her own life. Many people, including professionals positioned to help her, such as her therapist, had written her off, as she endured nearly all-consuming pain that only trauma and grief can bring.  
  More than thirty years later from that first memory of trauma, being a successful therapist and entrepreneur, and a wife and mother, Demarra realized that she too, had deep healing to do.  
  This awakening caused Demarra to start again, leaving behind everything that was familiar to her, including a loving husband of fifteen years, and moving into uncharted territory in search of herself, and all that had been lost. 
  As a therapist and holistic practitioner, Demarra offers insight for readers seeking to overcome past trauma and live abundantly in every area of their lives. But equally important, it’s for those charged to support survivors so they can begin the healing process immediately. 
  As listeners journey through the story, they are left with a resonant and hopeful promise, an assurance that, no matter who we are, and what we’ve been through, the path to healing and joy is not only possible but part of our birthright and inherently worth pursuing.
