Turning the other cheek does not mean standing by while the enemies of God dismantle Christian civilization and brainwash our children. Decrying the cowardice that masquerades as meekness, Eric Metaxas summons the Church to battle. An attenuated and unbiblical “faith” based on what Bonhoeffer called “cheap grace” has sapped the spiritual vitality of millions of Americans. Paying lip service to an insipid “evangelism,” they shrink from combating the evils of our time. Metaxas refutes the pernicious lie that fighting evil politicizes Christianity.

History and modern culture repeating itself. Are we doomed or can we stand up?
Reviewed: 09-29-23
Love this book for its historical accuracy and the parallel it draws to American Christians today. Somebody needs to light a fire under all of us so we may stand up against the angel of death weaving its way through our culture.

Before its end as a nation, there appeared in ancient Israel nine specific warnings and omens of national destruction. These same nine harbingers are now manifesting in America with profound ramifications for America’s future and end-time prophecy. Hidden in an ancient biblical prophecy from Isaiah, the mysteries revealed in The Harbinger are so precise that they foretell recent American events down to the exact days.

In The Return of the Gods, Cahn takes the listener on a journey from an ancient parable, the ancient inscriptions in Sumer, Assyria, and Babylonia that become the puzzle pieces behind what is taking place in our world to this day, specifically in America. The mystery involves the gods. Who are they? What are they? And is it possible that these beings, whose origins are from ancient times, are the unseen catalysts of modern culture?

Wow! What an amazing resource. Grateful that rabbi Kahn has been called to enlighten the world with the truth. I highly recommend this book, especially for believers in Jesus Christ. It will confirm your faith and open your eyes to what is really going on around you and how the spiritual world is affecting and infecting this current culture.

I still don’t get the ending
Reviewed: 12-26-18
This book is basically the Clifton Chronicles based in Russia but the ending still has me confused. That said, it was enjoyable and the very last line of the book is a redeeming quality all by itself. I feel a bit stupid for not realizing who that was all along.

Reviewed: 09-20-17
First, I loved the story. Incredibly fresh take on AI and relevant to someone like me in the software industry in Silicon Valley. Funny and serious at the same time. Most of the time books are better read than listened to, but not this one. The narrators were all great but especially January LaVoy. She was unbelievably awesome and truly made the novel for me. Outstanding job by everyone. Cannot recommend this book enough.

I guess you have to read it if you read the first two but it's mediocre at best. Predictable story, sanctimonious lecturing, and obscure historical references make it a bit of a bore.

The long-awaited new novel from Margaret Atwood. The Year of the Flood is a dystopic masterpiece and a testament to her visionary power. The times and species have been changing at a rapid rate, and the social compact is wearing as thin as environmental stability. Adam One, the kindly leader of the God's Gardeners - a religion devoted to the melding of science and religion, as well as the preservation of all plant and animal life - has long predicted a natural disaster that will alter Earth as we know it. Now it has occurred, obliterating most human life.

Nice 2nd book in the trilogy. You need to get past the first few hours to figure out how it ties to the first book. Only negative is the terrible singing, just fast forward through all of those parts.

She used to work for the US government, but very few people ever knew that. An expert in her field, she was one of the darkest secrets of an agency so clandestine it doesn't even have a name. And when they decided she was a liability, they came for her without warning. Now she rarely stays in the same place or uses the same name for long. They've killed the only other person she trusted, but something she knows still poses a threat. They want her dead, and soon.

Wasted a good story
Reviewed: 01-03-17
Had I realized this was written by the Twilight author, I probably would have skipped it. The first third of the book was really good and packed with action. Then the Twilight in her came out and a huge portion of the remainder was filled with cheesy romance, flowery dialogue, and far from reality romantic scenes. I also didn't care for the forced hatred between Alex and Kevin...it really made no sense at all. Bottom line, if the book would have stuck with the thriller/action plot line it would have been much better.

On a foggy summer night, 11 people - 10 privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter - depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: The plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are the painter Scott Burroughs and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family. Was it by chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something more sinister at work?

Reviewed: 06-28-16
It's pitched as a thriller about a plane crash, but it's really a story about a bunch of characters that all happen to be on the same plane. I felt way too much was unresolved about each character and the ending was more abrupt than the plan crash itself. I wouldn't recommend.

Reviewed: 06-20-16
I guess I'd say I ended up disappointed although I'd also say I really enjoyed the book. Each story tied together nicely in a way that told you a long history of two families. However, each story seemed to end without total resolution and leaving me feeling like something had always been left out.
