New! – Free Christian E-Book Short Podcasts!

New! – Free Christian E-Book Short Podcasts!

Don’t have time to read a whole e-book? Want to get the key ideas and principles in just a few minutes?  Or perhaps you would like to get a better idea of what an e-book is all about before investing the time to read the whole thing.  If one of these situations applies to you, or you would simply like to enjoy a podcast style discussion of one of our books, we have good news for you.

We are now producing Deep-Dive podcasts for a number of our e-books. These podcasts give a more in-depth look at a book’s central ideas than a simple blurb can do, and are stimulating ways to  engage with the book’s content and message. We now have the first podcasts available – providing short but meaningful looks at e-books we are sure you will enjoy. Listen to the podcasts on our sister-site, here, and check back often as we will be adding new podcasts each week.
