“This is the best book on Christian leadership I have ever read.”
Charles Colson

Many books have been written concerning leadership. Some have been classics and withstood the test of time. Fewer combine Biblical wisdom and clarity with humility and servant leadership; Spiritual Leadership by J. Oswald Sanders is one of those books. Required reading for many in leadership courses & positions, this classic book details the practices and hearts of some of the greatest leaders who ever lived. Sanders uses primary examples in Scripture (Moses, Nehemiah, Paul) and also some of the most important leaders of the last 200 years, such as C.H. Spurgeon and David Livingstone.

When christianaudio launched the free book of the month program over five years ago, it was hard to imagine having the opportunity to give away tiles from best-selling, modern authors. With the help of some great partners, we’ve been able to achieve just that!

This month’s free audiobook Ministries of Mercy is exciting because so many of us here at christianaudio appreciate the work and ministry of Tim Keller. He has written several important books of late, all of which are highly recommended and helpful. Ministries of Mercy, although an earlier title of his, is just as timely and relevant today as Tim’s latest writings.

We are thrilled to highlight the topic of Gospel driven mercy ministries and the role and responsibility Christians share. We are also grateful to P&R Publishing for partnering with us to offer this free download, as well as Westminster Bookstore which is also offering a 50% discount for the print version of Ministries of Mercy for the month of August (until the 31st)!

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.

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 July, christianaudio has partnered with Wingspread Publishers to offer A.W. Tozer’s beloved bestselling classic, The Pursuit of God.

Many of us here at christianaudio have benefited greatly from this work and we pray you will too!
