A Place of Healing: Wrestling with the Mysteries of Suffering, Pain, and God’s Sovereignty by Joni Eareckson Tada is a new book coming from David C. Cook Publishers in print and christianaudio in audiobook.
Joni was injured in a 1967 accident that left her a quadriplegic. In the years since, she has been a tireless advocate for those with disabilities and has become a prominent Christan author. In a recent announcement, we learned of her diagnosis of breast cancer which has been a shock to all who have followed Joni’s ministry over the years. Her amazing story and witness for Christ is available on her ministry website http://www.joniandfriends.org and on her Facebook page.
For the rest of July (until the 31st), we are offering the first hour of this new audiobook, read by Joni herself, as a free download!
For July, christianaudio has partnered with Wingspread Publishers to offer A.W. Tozer’s beloved bestselling classic, The Pursuit of God. One of the more important Christian books of the modern era, it continues to appear on best-seller lists year after year. Tozer lived something real, different, and so authentic that his life transcended the average and normal. He wrestled to know God over a lifetime and by his writings, many believe he achieved his life goal – to know the almighty God personally.
Many of us here at christianaudio have benefited greatly from this work and we pray you will too!
And, while you’re downloading the free book, be sure to jump in and discuss the free download with other listeners on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/A.W.Tozer

With deep appreciation to Thomas Nelson, The Hole in Our Gospel by Richard Stearns is the free audiobook download of the month! Since it’s introduction in March of 2009, this book has had a profound impact on thousands of readers and listeners alike.
World Vision CEO Richard Stearns details his own struggle to obey God regardless of the cost. Is there a hole in our gospel? Are we lacking in understanding and obedience to Jesus’ commands? With great care, Stearns uses Biblical instruction to show where the Church is lacking. He does so in such a way as not to be judgmental and critical, but caring and instructive. Stearns offers compelling stories and insights to encourage, motivate, and challenge us to a greater obedience of Christ.
We wish to thank both Thomas Nelson and Richard Stearns at World Vision for making this important book available.
