#45-Two New Books & an Oldie

01 AStudyInScarletThe Destined_Cover

Seasons of Change

This week’s podcast looks at the next two releases from Narration by George and looks back to a still-exciting-to-listen-to release from 2014.

  • A Study in Scarlett is the first of the Sherlock Holmes novels by Arthur Conan Doyle.  Production has begun on this novel with release expected in March.
  • The Destined is a new novel from two new authors, Glenn Eidson and Brent Hurst.  This young adult release is exciting for any age and will be an exciting listen.
  • Seasons of Change is an exciting listening experience.  The United States Government has collapsed.  Mobs and gangs are trying to remake the eastern part of the country into their turf.  Ordinary citizens are just trying to stay low and not be enslaved.  Michael is one of those just trying to be unnoticed.  Until….  You have to read the book to find the rest of the story!

#44-Upside Down Blessings

blessings copyThis week, we go back to the world of spiritual ideas to talk about “blessings.”  Each week, I end this podcast with an exhortation to “share you blessings with someone else.”  The question is, “What are our blessings?”  Are they the things we have?  The people we know?  The life we lead?  Jesus tells us about blessings and this lesson from my home church talks about those definitions in the context of Jesus’ birth.

Scriptures referenced in this lesson are:

#43-Looking Back, Looking Forward

2015 and 2016 year written on sandy beach sea. Wave washes away 2015. The concept of 2015 is gone, come the new year 2016.

CoverFor the opening of any new year, looking back and looking forward in assessment is always interesting.  Looking back, we see the accomplishments and failures of the year.  And we look forward in wonderful expectation of what the new year will hold.  So, it is with Narration by George.  I look back at the titles that are available.  I look forward to new distribution channels and new authors.  And I start with an interview with author Donna Patton.  Take a listen!

#42-The Story of Christmas

birth-of-jesusIt’s two days before Christmas as I write this.  The season of giving, receiving, family, friends, fellowship, and food is upon us.  But, will we take time to remember the reason for this season?  Will we take time – individually and corporately – to celebrate, to contemplate, to remember the One who gave us the most important gift of all?  “This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son.  And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life.  God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was.  He came to help, to put the world right again.” (John 3:16, The Message)  This podcast celebrates this gift in words and music.  Enjoy!
