Historia
Letters from Bud is the remarkable firsthand account of the harrowing air war in Europe as told by WW2 flight navigator and bombardier John “Bud” Brandenburg, in his letters home during the conflict, from 1944-45. With guts, wit, and grace, Brandenburg records his experiences with the daring “Koltun crew”, which flew 30 missions over Europe. Through numerous strokes of fate, the crew survived a run of missions with the “bloody” 492nd Bomb Group, a unit that endured an 80 percent casualty rate as the men faced down the seemingly unstoppable German Luftwaffe.

Not much here, and an annoying narrator
Revisado: 10-30-23
I don't get the rave reviews on this one. There isn't much here but common info on countries. Didn't hold my interest at all. The narrator over emphasizes certain words to try to make plain text sound more exciting, but it made me feel like she was reading to a child. Had to stop listening to it.

Excellent book with much needed insights.
Revisado: 01-07-23
I highly recommend this book to those in the later stages of their career. It easily explains the challenges successful career focused individuals face as they progress through the stages of life. These insights are life changing in that they help the reader to accept the natural change in focus they will experience as they mature. Loved it.

Loved ever minute of this book!
Revisado: 08-06-21
What a great story! I enjoyed learning about the Princess 's life and how things were in Romania at this time. I had no idea of all that she did and how much she sacrificed of herself to help the people around her. The narration was great as well and really made it feel as if the author was sitting with you telling you what happened.

Historia
As disciples of Jesus our hearts are meant to burn with love unceasingly. Solitude is a wonderful place to learn how to kindle this fire into flame. It can then become a constant source of delight within us. This warmth is unique and does not compare with any other stirrings the heart can experience. The holy fire that comes from the spirit is distinctive. When it comes we perceive that it comes from an inexhaustible source. We go to solitude to be still so that the Holy Spirit will come to us and make his home in us.

Wonderful book, better to listen at .85 speed.
Revisado: 07-04-21
Father Goring shares some great insights in this book and I truly enjoyed listening to it. The first time through I found it being read way to fast like they increased the speed of the narration. When I switchd to .85 speed I was able to listen and really enjoy the learnings shared from Father Goring's unique adventure into solitude.

Such wonderful stories! Sorry it ended!

I was sorry this ended and wished it went on and on. The stores are deep and told so well. The narration is very pleasant and I enjoy how the author speaks so openly as if she is sitting right here telling you about what she experienced. I hope she writes more books about where she is now and what is happening around her!

Historia
Every monastery exudes the scent of holiness, but women's monasteries have their own special flavor. Join Constantina Palmer as she makes frequent pilgrimages to a women's monastery in Greece and absorbs the nuns' particular approach to their spiritual life. If you're a woman who's read of Mount Athos and longed to partake of its grace-filled atmosphere, this book is for you. Men who wish to understand how women's spirituality differs from their own will find it a fascinating listen as well.

WOW! I loved this book! So enjoyable!
Revisado: 06-17-21
Another reviewer stated they were disappointed when this ended. That is how I felt too. Listening to this was like being swept off to a far away land and I looked forward to hearing the next adventure. The narration was excellent as well. I learned much from this book and have just ordered her next book as well in hopes of more of the same.

Historia
In an audiobook eagerly awaited by her growing retinue of fans, she brings listeners inside the world's oldest Christian faith, illuminating Eastern Orthodoxy in a manner similar to Kathleen Norris's exploration of Benedictine spirituality. An ex-hippie and former social radical, the author often writes humorously about her unusual road from Woodstock to the altar of an Orthodox church, where she is the pastor's wife.

I could listen to her narration all day. Of course the topic is highly interesting as well, but I believe she can bring a book to life like no other.
