  “So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.” (Mark 5:20) 
  A.W. Tozer wrote his classic, The Pursuit of God, on an overnight train but the technology did not exist to be able to publish it by the time the train arrived at its destination the next morning. But in today’s world, you can. It’s not just books. In only a matter of minutes, you can set up a blog or launch a podcast. Those are just some of the incredible opportunities you and I have to use the power of media to follow in the footsteps of the man in Mark 5:20. 
  Digital Missionary outlines the compelling power of publishing and media, encouraging every Christian to pick up their pen or get behind their keyboard or microphone and flood the world with gospel resources that can endure as ongoing ministry long after they’re gone.

  The Joyful Wisdom

  Friedrich Nietzsche

  What if laughter held more truth than solemnity? What if wisdom danced - light-footed, irreverent, and defiant - instead of cloaking itself in the heavy robes of tradition? 
  In The Joyful Wisdom (also known as La Gaya Scienza), Friedrich Nietzsche unveils a luminous and lyrical philosophy that challenges the deepest convictions of Western thought. Written during a moment of personal renewal, this daring work blends poetry, paradox, and razor-sharp insight into a celebration of life’s uncertainties—and the courage to embrace them. 
  Here, Nietzsche proclaims the death of God - not as despair, but as a liberation from dogma. He guides us through a labyrinth of aphorisms that question morality, truth, art, and the nature of existence itself. In the celebrated Book IV, "Sanctus Januarius," we find the seeds of eternal recurrence, a provocative vision of time and will that shaped existential and postmodern thought. The closing section, “Songs of Prince Vogelfrei,” offers poetic fragments that sing with ecstatic defiance. 
  Nietzsche’s legacy endures not only in philosophy but in literature, psychology, and cultural theory. His voice - bold, ironic, and unrelentingly modern -continues to speak to anyone seeking to break free from inherited beliefs and live with creative authenticity. 
  This immersive audiobook experience allows you to hear Nietzsche’s rhythmic prose and aphorisms in clear, intelligent narration powered by advanced AI -delivering both precision and nuance, perfectly suited to the musicality and complexity of the original text. 
  Step into the vibrant mind of one of history’s most original thinkers. Let The Joyful Wisdom unsettle, awaken, and inspire. 
  Buy now and begin your journey into a philosophy that dances on the edge of reason - with joy.

  Rest Is Resistance - Group...

  The work we do doesn’t define our worth. Imagine a world where justice includes space for rest and leisure, away from the relentless grind created by capitalism, white supremacy, and other oppressive forces. For centuries, these systems have exploited bodies for production, leading to destruction and harm by denying the inherent divinity in every human being. But now, people are waking up to this manipulation, and they’re starting to prioritize rest and healing. 
  America was built on the labor of Black and Indigenous people, whose right to rest was denied. The capitalist system grew out of violence and the theft of labor on plantations. These oppressive systems view human bodies as property, not as divine beings. We've been conditioned to believe we must work endlessly or risk falling into poverty. But there’s more beyond this narrow view.

  On the night of August 6, 1930, Joseph Force Crater, a newly appointed judge and prominent figure in many circles of Manhattan, hailed a taxi in the heart of Broadway and vanished into thin air. Despite a decades-long international manhunt led by the New York Police Department's esteemed Missing Persons Bureau, the reason for Crater's disappearance remains a confounding mystery. In the early months of the investigation, evidence implicated and imperiled New York's top officials, including then-Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt and Mayor Jimmy Walker, as well as the city's Tammany Hall political machine, lawyers and judges, and a theater mogul. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on new sources, including NYPD case files and court records, and overlooked evidence discovered years later, Riegel pieces together the puzzle of what likely happened to Joseph Crater and why. To uncover the mystery, he delves into Crater's ascension into the scintillating and corrupt world of Manhattan in the Roaring Twenties and Jazz Age. In turn, the story of the judge's vanishing amid the Great Depression unfolds as a harbinger of the disappearance of his lost metropolis and its transformation into modern-day New York City.

  The former Stanford University sailing coach sentenced in the Varsity Blues college admissions scandal tells the riveting true story of how he was drawn unwittingly into a web of deceit in this eye-opening memoir that offers a damning portrait of modern college administration and the ways in which justice and fairness do not always intersect.  
   For eleven years, John Vandemoer ran the prestigious Stanford University sailing program in which he coached Olympians and All-Americans. Though the hours were long and the program struggled for funding, sailing gave Vandemoer’s life shape and meaning.  
  But early one morning, everything came crashing down when Vandemoer, still in his pajamas, opened the door to find FBI and IRS agents on his doorstep. He quickly learned that a recruiter named Rick Singer had used him as a stooge in a sophisticated scheme designed to take advantage of college coaches and play to the endless appetite for university fundraising—and wealthy parents looking for an edge for their college-bound children.  
  Vandemoer was summarily fired, kicked out of campus housing, his children booted from campus daycare. The next year of his life was a Kafkaesque hellscape, and though he was an innocent man who never received a dime was the first person to be convicted in what became known as the Varsity Blues scandal.  
  A true story that reads like a suspense novel, Rigged Justice lays bare how a sophisticated scheme could take advantage of college coaches and university money—and how one family became collateral damage in a large government investigation that dominated national headlines.
