The Ten Commandments by Dennis Prager I thoroughly enjoyed this short yet very in-depth audio from Dennis Prager. There is a print version to this audiobook. With this audiobook there is a pdf download that you will want to use while listening. Dennis is a great political and Bible teacher. I was really hesitant to use one of my Audible credits for this approximately 1 hour audio, but I'm actually glad I did. The depth of understanding that Dennis has on this issue, as well as his incredible ability to share his understanding so succinctly is amazing to me.  As a Christian I find the information in this book to be very helpful in understand what Jesus and his apostles were talking about when they say that keeping God's Law is tantamount to living the life the Creator desires to see in us.

Over the last few years I have been studying and learning about Jewish culture and some of their religious practices and beliefs. This lecture came up on my Audible "suggested listens" list. It has taken me a month to get through it all, and I must say that as much as I have learned over the last few years, this lecture has peeled off more layers of the onion skin than what I thought could be done!  I think it is important to understand going into this lecture that Judaism is not JUST a religious practice.

Each lecture sticks with one topic. Each topic is thoroughly covered and packed with an enormous amount of information. If you have ever wondered why the Jewish people believe and act in certain ways that you do not understan...

Yep...I found a truly hidden gem in the country on the outskirts of the small quiet town of Deridder, LA. At a time in my life when I felt everything in my life was completely hopeless due to a particular situation I had gotten myself into (to put it mildly, biting off WAYYY more than I could chew), I found this gem when I wasn't even looking for it.  What is this gem? It is the location in which a community like-minded people come together each week to learn about the Creator, share about their lives with one another, and break bread together. That is the simplest way I can put it, but please understand it is so much more than that.  Let me first tell you about the people in attendance there. These people, though few in numbers come from all over the state of Louisiana, and a few even travel from East Texas. The online reach actually extends internationally, including Israel and the United Kingdom! They come from all walks of life, occupations, and denominational/cultural bac...
