Thinking all monasteries were like the ones he saw in the movies, Jesse Itzler arrived at the New Skete religious community in remote Cambridge, New York, with a shaved head and a suitcase filled with bananas. To his surprise, New Skete monks have most of their hair. They're Russian Orthodox, not Buddhist, and they're also world-renowned dog breeders and authors of dog-training books that have sold in the millions.

Levi Benkert was playing with his children in the park when he received an urgent phone call from a friend asking him to drop everything and fly to Ethiopia to help organize a rescue orphanage for children destined to be murdered as part of a tribal superstition known as "mingi". In tribal culture, children and infants with even the slightest defect are considered "cursed" and are killed by their own parents, who fear allowing the children to live will cause bad luck to descend on the village. Moved by his friend's story, Levi packed his bags and left.

At that point, Zach Sobiech was just another teenager battling cancer. When his mother told him to think about writing good-bye letters to family and friends, he decided instead to write songs. One of them, "Clouds", captured hearts and changed not one life but millions, making him an international sensation.

Resumen del Editor
Let me offer you a unique and immersive experience, one that will take you on a journey to India, into the foothills of the mighty Himalayas, where you will learn about the lives of four intriguing individuals as they navigate their way through life's many ups and downs during their formative years.
You will get to meet a studious academic named Kushal and his best friend Chubbs as they settle into a new life in a boarding school within the shadow of the mighty Kanchenjunga. You’ll also encounter KP, full of boundless energy, with a passion about the outdoors, and finally you’ll get to know Rup, full of spirit and adventure, as he lives life on the edge.
Perhaps you’re wondering if we’re about to pack our bags and take some crazy risks during this uncertain COVID landscape. Not at all! What I’ve just described is a little bit of background to my debut novel, entitled The Brotherhood.
In some respects, the story is a homage to my youth, and as I look back, I realize just how fortunate I was to have grown up among the lush tea plantations in Assam, and to have gone to school in those same Himalayan foothills portrayed in the novel. Whilst the places are very real, the characters are fictional, and I have endeavored to depict the immense joy and deep bonds that can be experienced through authentic lifelong friendships.
I take the listener on a trip with the four protagonists, as they make their way from school into adulthood, with the many ups and downs this inevitably brings. There are unexpected and challenging life events that encompass love, honor, and tragedy, yet as the title suggests, we see the sustaining beauty of an unbreakable bond that sustains these friends and brothers.
The story is very personal to me, as it reflects many of the experiences I have had in these first 50 years of my life, from Darjeeling, India through to my time living in the US. My hope is that much of it will also resonate with my listeners, as I seek to transport them to the magically ethereal setting of my childhood; a place so wonderful that it is almost surreal.

Historia
When Miss Norma was diagnosed with uterine cancer, she was advised to undergo surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. But instead of confining herself to a hospital bed for what could be her last stay, Norma - newly widowed after nearly seven decades of marriage - rose to her full height of five feet and told her doctor, "I'm 90 years old. I'm hitting the road." Packing what she needed, Norma took off on an unforgettable cross-country journey with three professional nomads - her retired son, Tim; his wife, Ramie; and their standard poodle, Ringo.

Blindness became Captain Scotty Smiley’s journey of supreme testing.

Millions know Emily Maynard Johnson from her unprecedented double appearances on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. Millions also know that neither of the relationships from those shows lasted much longer than a commercial break. Overcome with embarrassment following her nationally televised failures at romance, Emily finally committed her heart to the only one she knew would never leave her empty and alone.

Historia
John Marshall had read about the growth of voluntourism, and frankly, it was the only kind of extended trip he could afford. He'd heard that some peoples' lives were changed by a week of overseas service - what might half a year accomplish for his family? His wife, Traca, was all in favor of it; his kids, especially his 14-year-old daughter, were strongly opposed. Wide-Open World is the totally engaging, bluntly honest story of the Marshall family's life-changing adventure.

Historia
Levi Benkert was playing with his children in the park when he received an urgent phone call from a friend asking him to drop everything and fly to Ethiopia to help organize a rescue orphanage for children destined to be murdered as part of a tribal superstition known as "mingi". In tribal culture, children and infants with even the slightest defect are considered "cursed" and are killed by their own parents, who fear allowing the children to live will cause bad luck to descend on the village. Moved by his friend's story, Levi packed his bags and left.

Historia
Why do my most profound moments of faith vanish so quickly? What would your life be like if you could harness the rush of faith that appears in the most desperate moments? What if you could live your entire life with the kind of split-second, imminent-disaster faith that crying out to God brings? What if you could live a life of ridiculous faith? True faith is vital to a vibrant Christian life. Without it, it is impossible to please God.
