    Do you know unchurched Harry and Mary? He or she could be the neighbor who is perfectly happy without God, the coworker who scoffs at Christianity, the supervisor who only uses Jesus' name as a profanity, or the family member who doesn't understand the importance of religion. Lee Strobel's Inside the Mind of Unchurched Harry and Mary isn't a book of theories, but rather a plan of action to help Christians relate the message of God to the skeptics they live and work with. Strobel uses compelling personal anecdotes, humor, Biblical illustrations, and the latest research to help Christians better understand unbelievers and their motivations. The award-winning journalist is a former skeptic who now serves as a teaching pastor at the famed Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, Illinois. Language: English. Narrator: Lee Strobel. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/zond/000053/bk_zond_000053_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Young Oxford tutor Theodore Gumbril has become thoroughly dismayed by the formality of college life and the staid British institutions of learning. An impetuous need for celebration, even rebellion, possesses him. He and his bohemian companions embark on wild and daring "bacchanalian" adventures that steer them resolutely away from stifling conventions of behavior.Antic Hay, first published in 1923, is one of Aldous Huxley's earlier novels, and like them is primarily a 'novel of ideas' involving conversations which disclose viewpoints rather than establish characters; its polemical theme unfolds against the backdrop of London's post-war nihilistic Bohemia. This is Huxley at his biting, brilliant best -- a novel, loud with derisive laughter, which satirically scoffs at all conventional morality and at stuffy people everywhere -- a novel that's always charged with excitement. ungekürzt.

    Parrots will repeat anything. They don’t talk sense—or do they? When Pru Marlowe is called in to retrain a foulmouthed African gray after its owner’s death, she can’t help hearing the parrot’s words as a replay of a murder scene. But the doctor on call scoffs at the idea, and the heirs just want their late mother’s pet to stop cursing. The only other possible witnesses being an evasive aide, a blind neighbor, and a single-minded service dog, Pru is stuck with what may be a featherbrained theory. Even her crotchety tabby Wallis doesn’t buy it, although Wallis would be more than willing to “interrogate” the bird up close. Meanwhile, Pru, the bad-girl animal psychic, is also called on to deal with drugs, jealousy, and a potential rabies outbreak. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tavia Gilbert.

But before the darling couple of London theatre, Henry Irving and Ellen Terry, take their acclaimed Macbeth to the Edinburgh stage terror treads the boards.
