About this listen
From best-selling author Toni Sorenson comes a captivating account of the beloved Old Testament story of Ruth and Naomi.
Ruth and Naomi: Whithersoever Thou Goest is the inspiring tale of two women’s matchless devotion, envisioned as never before. It is a time of famine and despair in the land: crops are failing, idol-worship is widely practiced, and those who follow the God of Israel are cruelly oppressed. Israel’s defeat at the hands of Moab has left a nation in despair, and among the struggling are Naomi and her blacksmith husband, Elimelech. Following a series of unspeakable tribulations, Elimelech is a harder man - and despite his family’s misgivings, he makes a decision that changes their lives forever. The King of Moab is in need of the kind of weaponry that Elimelech can produce, and Naomi feels she must support her husband in his desire to heed the call to serve. So, along with their two young sons, the family leaves their home in Bethlehem to begin a new life.
As the family gains favor in the sight of the king, Naomi’s sons endear themselves to two of the king’s daughters, Orpah and Ruth, and marry into the royal family. But when tragedy claims the lives of their husbands, events are set in motion for Naomi and Ruth that will alter the course of history.

Story
As Christ’s chief apostle, the account of Simon Peter’s discipleship - as well as his faltering faith - has been well chronicled. Yet there is much more to the story, for Peter’s experiences did not begin and end during the mortal ministry of Jesus Christ. They spanned a lifetime of devotion. In this compelling novel from acclaimed author Toni Sorenson, the life of Peter is related as never before - first as Simon, a stalwart young man whose trust in the Lord sets him on a path of triumph and tragedy, and later as Peter, a powerful leader of the church.

My name will mean nothing to you, but my story is a re-telling of the greatest story ever told and should mean everything to everyone. My story comes forth now because now is the promised day when satanic doubt spreads like black ink, threatening to blot out His very name, to reduce Him to nothing more than a teacher, to erase the eternal truths He taught and Lived. That cannot happen. Jesus was who He said He was. I know because I was there in the shadows of His holy footsteps. His miracles were real. I know because I am one of those miracles.

Story
To the Chinese the dragon is not an evil creature, but is a god and the friend of men who worship him. He "holds in his power prosperity and peace." Ruling the waters and the winds, he sends the good rain, is hence the symbol of fecundity. In the Hsia dynasty two dragons fought a great duel until both disappeared, leaving only a fertile foam from which were born the descendants of the Hsia. Thus, the dragons came to be looked upon as the ancestors of a race of heroes. This is the story of China at War.

When Jesus Wept, the first novel in The Jerusalem Chronicles series by best-selling authors Bodie and Brock Thoene, unfolds the turbulent times in Judea during Jesus' ministry, centering on the friendship between Jesus and Lazarus.

In the turbulent times of the Dark Ages, the despotic Uther Pendragon, High King of Celtic Britain, is nearing death, and his kingdom is being torn apart by the squabbling of minor kings. But only one man can bring the Celts together as a nation and restore peace - King Arthur. Artorex (Arthur) doesn't yet seem like the great man he will grow into. We meet him as a shy, subservient twelve-year-old living in the foster home of Lord Ector, who took in Artorex as a babe to protect him from murderous kin.

As Christ’s chief apostle, the account of Simon Peter’s discipleship - as well as his faltering faith - has been well chronicled. Yet there is much more to the story, for Peter’s experiences did not begin and end during the mortal ministry of Jesus Christ. They spanned a lifetime of devotion. In this compelling novel from acclaimed author Toni Sorenson, the life of Peter is related as never before - first as Simon, a stalwart young man whose trust in the Lord sets him on a path of triumph and tragedy, and later as Peter, a powerful leader of the church.

My name will mean nothing to you, but my story is a re-telling of the greatest story ever told and should mean everything to everyone. My story comes forth now because now is the promised day when satanic doubt spreads like black ink, threatening to blot out His very name, to reduce Him to nothing more than a teacher, to erase the eternal truths He taught and Lived. That cannot happen. Jesus was who He said He was. I know because I was there in the shadows of His holy footsteps. His miracles were real. I know because I am one of those miracles.

When Abram finally requests Sarai's hand, she asks one thing—that he promise never to take another wife as long as she lives. Even her father thinks the demand is restrictive and agrees to the union only if Sarai makes a promise in return—to give Abram a son and heir. Certain she can easily do that, Sarai agrees.

Enriching and Tender
Ruths name has always been important to me but I knew nothing of the culture or WHY what she said would be so important. The story opened my eyes and heart to see a woman I grew to love. As I came to listen to the life of Naomi I realized an Integrity issue in my own life. As she sat depressed and alone she realized she had forsaken her God. She took a stand for her belief and life did not get easier but in the future ended up giving her so much of what her heart desired. I chose to do what she did and my life has been enriched and my loyalty to my God has returned. It is a story that really did touch my heart.

LOVED it! So Beautiful!
The voices took me right into the culture and created images in my mind of each character. The story was so well- written that these people became my friends. I could easily imagine how these women could be the ancestors of the Lord Jesus Christ. They became real people to me, who faced real difficulties of life as they lived according to the laws and traditions of Jewish and Moabitish culture. They developed over the course of the story not only the friendship we know of from the Bible, but also the attributes of Christ (love, kindness, forgiveness, endurance, compassion, mercy, etc.) that clearly would be passed on through His moral genetics as well as His Divine inheritance. This book has made me want to increase my own devotion to my God, and reach out in love and hospitality to all I encounter. I want to be a better representative of my faith as these women were presented to be!
