The Thor Conspiracy by Larry Burkett.  Read aloud by Ray Mossholder.

Meet the Author (Edited from Wikipedia) Larry Burkett (March 3, 1939 – July 4, 2003) was an American author and radio personality whose work focused on financial counseling from an evangelical Christian point of view. After completing high school in Winter Garden, Florida, he entered the U.S. Air Force where he served in the Strategic Air Command. Upon completion of his military duties, Burkett and his wife Judy returned to central Florida, where he worked in the space program at Cape Canaveral. He spent the next several years at the Space Center in charge of an experiments test facility that served the Mercury-, Gemini-, and Apollo-manned space programs. While working at the space center, Burkett earned degrees in marketing and finance at Rollins College. Burkett left the Space Center in 1970 to become Vice President of an electronics manufacturing firm. In 1972, he became an evangelical Christian; an event that had a profound effect on his life. In 1973, he left the electronics company to join the staff of a nonprofit ministry, Campus Crusade for Christ, as a financial counselor where he met Austin Pryor, Ron Blue and other notable financial experts. It was during this time that he began an intense study of what the Bible says about handling money, and he started teaching small groups around the country. Burkett left the campus ministry in 1976 to form Christian Financial Concepts (CFC), a nonprofit organization dedicated to teaching the biblical principles of handling money. In September 2000, CFC merged with Crown Ministries, creating a new organization, Crown Financial Ministries. Burkett served as Chairman of the Board of Directors until his death. Burkett published more than 70 books, sales of which now exceed 11 million copies and include several national best-sellers. He did three daily radio programs “Money Matters,” “How to Manage Your Money,” and “MoneyWatch,” along with a series of short features titled “A Money Minute,” which were carried on more than 1,100 radio outlets worldwide. (Crown Financial Ministries has since replaced the three longer-form radio broadcasts with shows having different titles and reworked formats.) In May 1996, Southwest Baptist University conferred on Burkett an honorary doctorate in economics. His last book was Nothing to Fear, in which he gave an update on his experiences with cancer and cancer treatments. Larry died on the fourth of July, 2003. His book “The Illumaniti” was published in 1991.  ”The Thor Conspiracy” was published in 1994.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis. Read aloud by Ray Mossholder

Clive Staples Lewis (29 November 1898 – 22 November 1963), commonly called C. S. Lewis and known to his friends and family as “Jack”, was a novelist, poet, academic, medievalist, literary critic, essayist, lay theologian, and Christian apologist born in Belfast, Ireland. He held academic positions at both Oxford University (Magdalen College), 1925–1954, and Cambridge University (Magdalene College), 1954–1963. He is best known both for his fictional work, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Space Trilogy, and for his non-fiction Christian apologetics, such as Mere Christianity, Miracles, and The Problem of Pain.

Lewis and fellow novelist J. R. R. Tolkien were close friends. Both authors served on the English faculty at Oxford University, and both were active in the informal Oxford literary group known as the “Inklings“. According to his memoir Surprised by Joy, Lewis had been baptized in the Church of Ireland (part of the Anglican Communion) at birth, but fell away from his faith during his adolescence. Owing to the influence of Tolkien and other friends, at the age of 32 Lewis returned to the Anglican Communion, becoming “a very ordinary layman of the Church of England“.^[1] His faith had a profound effect on his work, and his wartime radio broadcasts on the subject of Christianity brought him wide acclaim.

In 1956, he married the American writer Joy Davidman, 17 years his junior, who died four years later of cancer at the age of 45. Lewis died three years after his wife, from renal failure, one week before his 65th birthday. Media coverage of his death was minimal; he died on 22 November 1963—the same day that U.S. President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, and the same day another famous author, Aldous Huxley, died. In 2013, on the 50th anniversary of his death, Lewis will be honoured with a memorial in Poets’ Corner, Westminster Abbey.

Lewis’s works have been translated into more than 30 languages and have sold millions of copies. The books that make up The Chronicles of Narnia have sold the most and have been popularized on stage, TV, radio, and cinema.

SINGING WITH CHRIST

This is written by Israel Gingrich who has just turned ten. His mom and dad – Jimmy and Ashleda Gingrich – have been great friends of mine ever since our days together at Bethel Church in Redding, California. Israel, like his whole family, loves the Lord. The following incident he describes is true. I thought you’d enjoy reading it. – Ray

This is Israel Gingerich, mom has given me permission to share something very exciting that happened to me today. I got on the school bus today, i was feeling very stressed over some school stuff. i thought ‘maybe a GOD song will make me happy’ i started singing, “How great is Your love for me.” Then i hear a very clear voice, it said, “Israel keep singing” I kept singing, and the voice starts singing along with me. (nobody on the bus was singing) After the song, i said “JESUS, where you singing with me, was that You?” And then the very clear voice says, “I AM” I started crying my eyes out on the bus. (it was like i was in a different dimension) After i got off the bus, i asked myself “wow was JESUS really just singing with me” And this deep voice came to me, and said, “I was!” And my heart was sooo happy, i couldn’t help rejoice.

For the last few months every night i’ve been crying out to GOD to just speak to me very clearly. Like GOD spoke to Samuel, in the Bible. I learned a big lesson here, often when you ask GOD for something, and pray about something, HE will sometimes give it to you, but sometimes HE wants us to keep asking, and He will test us to see how much we want it, and it may take awhile. When i heard GOD singing with me on the bus, my heart didnt just hear it, my ears where truly hearing it.

So when you are praying about something, don’t give up, keep asking. HE wants to talk to you! I am just a boy ten yrs old, and God hears and talks t me, and i know He will talk to you too!! Thank you for reading what i shared.
