  What if true goodness made the world uncomfortable? 
  The Idiot is Dostoevsky’s powerful novel about innocence, cruelty, and the cost of staying pure in a world that rewards deception.  
  Prince Myshkin, recently returned from years of treatment in a Swiss clinic, walks through the aristocratic society of 19th-century Russia with compassion, honesty, and a profound sensitivity—traits that make him an outsider in every room. 
  Torn between two women, manipulated by greedy nobles, and surrounded by social intrigue, Myshkin's moral clarity slowly becomes his downfall. This deeply human story explores the tragic impossibility of living with radical goodness in a broken world. 
  What you’ll discover inside: 
  -A Timeless Portrait of Innocence – The unforgettable character of Prince Myshkin. 
  -A Complex Tapestry of Emotion – Love, betrayal, and spiritual yearning in high society. 
  -A Tragic Moral Conflict – What happens when a pure soul meets a cynical world. 
  -A Modern, Faithful Adaptation – Captures the novel’s emotional depth and clarity for today’s listeners. 
  Let the voice of Dostoevsky awaken your heart and conscience. 
  The Idiot is more than a novel—it’s a spiritual reckoning.

  Confronting Old Testament...

  Tremper Longman III

  For many people, skeptics and believers alike, the Old Testament is rife with controversial passages and events that make both belief and sharing our beliefs with others difficult. Often our solutions have tended toward the extremes—ignore problem passages and pretend they don't matter or obsess over them and treat them as though they are the only thing that matters. 
   
   
   
  Now with clarity of purpose and fidelity to the message and spirit of Scripture as a whole, Tremper Longman confronts pressing questions of concern to modern audiences, particularly young people in the church: 
   
   
   
  ● the creation/evolution debate 
   
   
   
  ● God-ordained violence 
   
   
   
  ● the historicity of people, places, and events 
   
   
   
  ● human sexuality 
   
   
   
  Pastors, leaders in the church, and thoughtful and troubled Christians in the pews will find here a well-reasoned and faithful approach to dealing with the Old Testament passages so many find challenging or disconcerting.

  Edward Frederic Benson was born in Berkshire, England on 24th July 1867. 
   
  Educated at Marlborough and Kings College Cambridge he began his career as a writer at an early age and was published whilst still studying. 
   
  Benson was also a gifted athlete and represented his country at figure skating. 
   
  His career was prodigious and widely acknowledged.  Perhaps he is best known for his collection of novels about ‘Mapp & Lucia’ which have proved very popular throughout the decades.   
   
  Benson was also well regarded as a writer of ghost stories—‘spook stories’ in the then vernacular—as well as biographies.  His ghost and supernatural fiction covered a range of subjects but all were exceptionally well-written, drenched in atmosphere, riven with chills and have stood the test of popularity over the decades as testament to his literary talents.  
   
  Benson was never married and practised his homosexuality discreetly. 
   
  E F Benson died on 29th February 1940 at University College Hospital, London of throat cancer.  He was 72.

  Tony Gale: That’s Entertainment...

  Tony Gale

  In a footballing career spanning 21 years, Tony Gale played over 720 games on almost every league pitch across the four divisions. He is one of only 16 players in the UK to have played over 300 games for two teams and one of a handful to be part of a Premier League winning side. As a pundit he’s commentated on over 3,000 live games for the likes of Sky and Capital Gold, covering virtually every major football competition in his inimitable light hearted manner. 
   
  Gale made his first team debut at Fulham Football Club at the ripe age of 16, before being made captain at 18. Playing alongside a golden era of greats, the anecdotes which Gale recounts while playing alongside George Best, Bobby Moore and Rodney Marsh are a nostalgic masterclass. Moving to West Ham for the next decade, the Pimlico born defender was part of the iconic ‘Boys of 86’ squad, which broke 17 records that year, 16 of which are still unbeaten. 
   
  Exiting at his lowest point from West Ham in 1994, with two weeks to go before the new season, Gale was in effect homeless and jobless in footballing terms. That however all changed when he landed a place at Blackburn Rovers. Sir Kenny Dalglish recalled the decision to include 35-year-old Gale into the squad of 94/95. “His experience was a big help and the positive impact he made in the dressing room was excellent. He made his contribution to us winning the league, same as everybody on that team.” 
   
  Void of any media training, Gale’s move into radio and television commentary in the late 90’s was as natural as kicking a ball. In the words of Chris Kamara, “The one thing that stayed with Galey is that dressing room humour, which you all miss when you stop playing football. The one liners, the windups. Galey brought them from the dressing room and into real life.”
