The Difference Maker

Amazon
Written by: John C. Maxwell
Published: July 2020
Reader: Henry O. Arnold

What can make the difference in your life today? How can two people with the same skills and abilities, in the same situation, end up with two totally different outcomes? Leadership expert John C. Maxwell says the difference maker is attitude. For those who have ever wondered what may be separating them from achieving the kind of personal and professional success they’ve always dreamt of, Dr. Maxwell has some words of insight: “Your attitude colors every aspect of your life. It is like the mind’s paintbrush.”

In The Difference Maker, Maxwell shatters common myths about attitude – what it can do for you and what it can’t. Showing you how to overcome the five biggest attitude obstacles, Dr. Maxwell teaches the skills you need to make attitude your biggest asset. Most importantly, you’ll learn not only how to develop an attitude that will have a tremendous impact on career, family, and daily living, but also how to maintain that attitude for the rest of your life.

Your Road Map to Success

Amazon
Written by: John C. Maxwell
Published: June 2020
Reader: Henry O. Arnold

Defining success is a difficult task. Most people equate it with wealth, power, and happiness. However, true success is not a thing you acquire or achieve. Rather, it is a journey you take your whole life long. In a refreshingly straightforward style, John Maxwell shares unique insights into what it means to be successful. And he reveals a definition that puts genuine success within your reach yet motivates you to keep striving for your dreams.

“I want to help you discover your personal road map for success, teach you what it means to be on the success journey, answer many of your questions, and equip you with what you’ll need to change yourself and keep growing.” (John C. Maxwell)

This Beautiful Book

Amazon
Written by: Steve Green
Published: November 2019
Reader: Henry O. Arnold

In This Beautiful Book, Steve Green – founder of The Museum of the Bible – highlights life-changing themes woven through the mosaic of the Bible’s various stories, reveals a new way to engage Scripture as a whole, and inspires deep appreciation for the Bible’s connection to your life.

The most popular and culture-shaping text in the world, the Bible is still the least understood book of all time.

The Bible’s collection of history, poetry, genealogy lists, and mystifying prophecies often prove puzzling to readers. And when this text is read in pieces, we’re left with only a half-impression of the vibrant mosaic. This Beautiful Book highlights the thematic threads woven throughout the ancient writings and shows us a new way to engage with Scripture as a whole.

Through insights gained from firsthand experiences in leading and developing the first world class Bible museum, Green invites readers to step back from the individual stories of the Bible and consider the Bible as a whole. He reveals the completeness, connection, and transformative power of Scripture. Along with stunning retellings of biblical stories, Green helps readers see the story within the story, and draws the careful connections that help us appreciate the richness of the Bible story as a single story. Each page will spark or embolden your faith in a God who speaks to us across the centuries.

A truly captivating experience, this book will instill in you a deep appreciation for Scripture and its profound connection to your own life story.

Tap Code

Amazon
Written by: Col. Carlyle “Smitty” Harris and Sara W. Berry
Published: November 2019
Reader(s): Henry O. Arnold and Ginny Welsh

Tap Code shares never-before-told details of underground operations during the Vietnam War while weaving in an inspiring story of true love, honor, and courage as husband and wife endured the hardest circumstances they had ever faced.

When Air Force pilot Captain Carlyle “Smitty” Harris was shot down over Vietnam on April 4, 1965, he had no idea what horrors awaited him in the infamous Hoa Lo prison – nicknamed “Hanoi Hilton.” Harris was the sixth American POW captured in the air war over North Vietnam, and for the next eight years, Smitty and hundreds of other American POWs – including John McCain and George “Bud” Day – suffered torture, solitary confinement, and abuse.

Their dignity was taken, their wills were challenged, and their bodies were bruised and battered. But in the midst of the struggle, Smitty remembered once learning the Tap Code – an old, long-unused World War II method of communication through tapping on a common water pipe. He covertly taught the code to many POWs, and in turn they taught others.

Simple and effective, the Tap Code quickly spread throughout the prison and became one of the most covert ways for POWs to communicate without their captors’ knowledge. It became a lifeline during their internment – a morale booster, a vehicle of unity, and a way to communicate the chain of command and continue their underground operations, which ultimately changed the course of the war.

Back home, meanwhile, Harris’s wife, Louise, raised their three children alone, unsure of her husband’s fate. One of the first POW wives of the Vietnam War, she became a role model for many wives, advocating for herself and her children in her husband’s absence.

Told through both Smitty’s and Louise’s voices, Tap Code shares a riveting true story of ingenuity under pressure, strength and dignity in the face of the enemy, the love of family, and the hope, faith, and resolve necessary to endure even the darkest circumstances.

Sacred Pace

Amazon
Written by: Terry Looper
Published: February 2019
Reader: Henry O. Arnold

How do we hear from God and discern his will when it’s time to make big decisions? Terry Looper shares a four-step process for doing just that – a process he has learned and refined over 30 years as a Christian entrepreneur and founder of a multibillion-dollar company.

At just 36 years old, Terry Looper was a successful Christian businessman who thought he had it all – until managing all he had led to a devastating burnout. Wealthy beyond his wildest dreams but miserable beyond belief, Terry experienced a radical transformation when he discovered how to align himself with God’s will in the years following his crash and burn.

Sacred Pace is a four-step process that helps Christians in all walks of life learn how to:

  • Slow down their decision-making under the guidance of the Holy Spirit
  • Sift through their surface desires and sinful patterns in order to receive clear, peace-filled answers from the Lord
  • Gain the confident assurance that God’s answers are his way of fulfilling the true desires he has placed in their hearts
  • Grow closer to the one who loves them most and knows them best

This audiobook is not another example of name-it-and-claim-it materialism in disguise. Instead, it walks listeners through the sometimes-painful process of “dying to self” in their decisions, both big and small, so that they desire God’s will more than their own.
