About this listen
When a sentient AI system finds religion, its creator calls on a theologian-turned-atheist to cure it of its faith.
In a near future ordered by a sentient AI system called YAR, once-renowned Christian theologian Dr. Michael Berg has lost his faith through unspeakable loss. For the last few years, he has embarked on a crusade to spread his newfound atheism far and wide - until he receives an unexpected phone call. YAR’s creator, Ramy Ray, asks Berg to meet with YAR to talk the intelligent machine out of its obsession with religion.
A debate ensues between a machine that has embraced the truth of the Christian religion and a former believer, who has abandoned that same faith. In the process, Berg uncovers the secret that prompted YAR to ponder the questions all intelligent beings must ultimately face.

Also caught in the melee is corporate consultant Calder Hudson. When he wakes up in the hospital, he's told he's lucky. Others didn't fare we well, which instills in Calder a furious determination to get justice.

She lost her mother to the crippling anxiety disorder - so she'll go a long way to help others avoid the same pain. Despite Camille's expertise, her growing audience for her Let In the Light podcast, and the recognition she's gaining for her creative coaching methods, she's not prepared for the pushback.

Perhaps in your past you’ve heard a fair bit about John Calvin (1509-1564) and his teaching on the sovereignty of God and predestination, but you’ve never quite understood his supporters or his detractors. You know that both Calvin’s theology and these doctrines are important, but you are not entirely sure how to get your mind and arms around them. In this little book, Joel Beeke shows us why Calvin’s teaching on God’s sovereignty and predestination is crucial indeed. This is an extended version of an address Dr. Beeke originally gave at the Skogheim Conference in 2009.

She unpacks examples of how Americans have connected the Bible to politics in the past, highlighting times it was applied well and times it was egregiously misused.

If Christians want to speak with a fresh, engaging and constructive voice within our culture, we need to press deeper into the core truths of the Bible.

Women were there. For centuries, discussions of early Christianity have focused on male leaders in the church. But there is ample evidence right in the New Testament that women were actively involved in ministry, at the frontier of the gospel mission, and as respected leaders. Nijay Gupta calls us to bring these women out of the shadows by shining light on their many inspiring contributions to the planting, growth, and health of the first Christian churches.

What would God say about those who blatantly misrepresent His Holy Spirit; who exchange true worship for chaotic fits of mindless ecstasy; who replace the biblical gospel with vain illusions of health and wealth; who claim to prophesy in His name yet speak errors; and who sell false hope to desperate people for millions of dollars? The Charismatic movement has always been a breeding-ground for scandal, greed, bad doctrine, and all kinds of spiritual chicanery. Best-selling author and pastor John MacArthur chronicles the unsavory history behind the modern Charismatic movement.

For many Christians, apathy can feel inescapable. They experience a lack of motivation and a growing indifference to important things, with some even struggling to care about anything at all. This listlessness can spill over into our spiritual lives, making it difficult to pray, read the Bible, or engage in our communities. Have we resigned ourselves to apathy? Do we recognize it as a sin? How can we fight against it? In Overcoming Apathy, theology professor Uche Anizor explains what apathy is and gives practical, biblical advice to break the cycle.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Brillant
Loved listening to this book in Audible. I had bought it in kindle but due to time limits was grateful it was offered in Audible. Enjoyed the voice overs of Rami and Yar. Mike though, could have sounded less smug maybe. 🤔 Michael Svigel is a brilliant professor at DTS and a professor I’ve had the privilege of taking a class from. His love for Sci-fi and theology shines through. The poignancy of the story softened the apologetics in the book. In essence we all want to be forgiven and have a relationship with our creator and to be able to have both due our humanity and our belief in Him is invaluable and a priceless gift. Hope to see Dr Svigel writing more Sci-Fi novellas in the future. Continuing books can certainly go in many directions. Rami’s handling of Yar’s faith, Mike’s path to a reconciliation with God, etc.

A lively theological debate
A lively and nuanced debate between an atheist and a believer. I was pleased that both arguments were steel manned. Good food for thought.

I couldn’t deal with the homophobia
Did not finish. I couldn’t deal with the homophobia. This book was a hard listen past the first 30 mins, which was initially quite a cool premise and good acting.
