This month is a special free offer, something we’ve never done before! Yes, TWO FREE audiobooks, all in preparation for the Easter celebration of the cross and resurrection.

“When Christ calls a man, he bid him come and die.” This sentence from The Cost of Discipleship by Dietrich Bonhoeffer is the beginning of his teachings on what it means to truly follow Christ. He also speaks to cheap grace in that it’s the grace we bestow on ourselves. Cheap grace is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance; baptism without church discipline; communion without confession. Cheap grace is grace without discipleship, grace without the cross, grace without Jesus Christ, living and incarnate.

His short life was full of obedience and radical testimony to God’s calling on his life, even up to the day he was martyred in a German prison camp on April 9, 1945. The book focuses much on the Sermon on the Mount with its call to discipleship, and on the grace of God and the sacrifice it demands. A true Christian classic!

Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die by John Piper gives 50 purposes for the death of Jesus. Why did Jesus come to die, and how do those reasons and purposes challenge us in our thinking of God and right relationship with Him?

These free downloads are available in WMA, MP3 & M4B formats; learn more here. You can also purchase the print versions of The Cost of Discipleship (on Amazon or CBD) and Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die (on Amazon or CBD)!

February greetings from christianaudio! We are thrilled to offer Religion Saves: And Nine Other Misconceptions as the free audiobook download of the month.

After 343,203 online votes, Religion Saves includes the top nine questions posed by visitors to the Mars Hill Church website, each one answered by Pastor Mark Driscoll in his own voice.

Inspired by 1 Corinthians, in which Paul answers a series of questions posed by the people in the Corinthian church, in 2008 Pastor Mark Driscoll of Mars Hill Church in Seattle polled the visitors of his church’s website to determine their most pressing questions. Visitors were allowed to vote up to 10 times per day, and in the end, 893 questions were asked and 343,203 votes were cast. The top nine questions are now each answered in this audio version of Religion Saves, narrated by Driscoll himself.

Special thanks to RE:LIT (the publishing branch of the Resurgence) and Crossway for partnering with christianaudio to offer this month’s free download.

This free download is available in WMA, MP3 & M4B formats; learn more here. You can also purchase the print version on Amazon or Christian Book Distributors!

Jesus Calling is a devotional filled with uniquely inspired treasures from heaven for every day of the year. Sarah Young knew her writings were not inspired as Scripture is, but journaling helped her grow closer to God. Others were blessed as she shared her writings, until people all over the world were using her messages. They are written from Jesus’ point of view, thus the title Jesus Calling. It is Sarah’s fervent prayer that our Savior may bless readers with His presence and His peace in ever deeper measure.

Now, Jesus Calling is the free download for January, only from christianaudio! A daily devotional is a great way to start the New Year and this one is thoughtfully and warmly narrated by Pam Ward.

Also, special thanks to Thomas Nelson Publishers, publisher of the print version of Jesus Calling, for allowing this free download. Thomas Nelson has published many great titles which can be found at www.thomasnelson.com
