“Let the man who would hear God speak, read Holy Scripture.” ~Dr. Martin Luther
The beginning of the Holiday season in the US is marked by a pagan party on the last day of October known as Halloween. In recent years, this day has grown in popularity. In fact, a quick tour of any local neighborhood will reveal yard decorations of a scope and complexity bigger and more widespread than ever before. It quite literally rivals Christmastime now.
Many knowingly embrace Halloween’s demonic foundations. But, the vast majority (including many professing Christians) simply dismiss it as “harmless fun”, dedicated to dressing up and eating candy. The whole demonic part is really not to be taken all that seriously.
So, what’s a Bible-believer to do at this time of year? Well, we could head out to the garage and just dust off the Nativity scene early. In fact, that may not be such a bad idea. But if we as Christians want to celebrate a specific event other than Halloween on October 31st, then Martin Luther’s nailing of his 95 Theses onto the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, in 1517 is as good an alternative event as any. Because that event sparked one of the biggest revivals of a love for God’s Word in history, and October 31st is recorded as the actual day it took place. Hallelujah! What better example of how God works!
To that end, we’ve decided to help fan the flame of that alternative celebration with this recording of Luther’s 95 Theses in English. Study them in your homeschool, your small group, your classroom or just listen in the car by yourself, with family or friends. And begin your Holiday season a little differently this year.
Five Talents Audio shares Martin Luther’s love of God’s Word and it is our hope that both his and ours shine through in this recording, and that it helps bring you peace with God and peace with this fallen world, just as Jesus promised. Blessings today and love to all.
Dramatized by best-selling narrator, Steve Cook, this abridged re-telling of Dickens' classic Christmas tale has something for everyone. All the sounds of 19th Century London are captured, from clopping hooves on cobblestones to booming Westminster chimes at midnight to the supernatural comings and goings of Scrooge’s four nocturnal visitors. Plus, a complete soundtrack of suspenseful and seasonal music throughout puts the finishing touches on a true, old-fashioned radio theatre-style experience.
“Often great pieces of literature are so abridged when they’re dramatized that they lose the full power of the language and the storytelling,” says Cook. “I’ve taken great care to be as gentle as possible with this abridgment while still seeking to hold the attention of today’s audience. Of course, having over 20 different character voices and a full cinematic soundscape underneath always helps too.”
This dramatized recording is taken directly from Cook's performance of Dickens' full, 3.5-hour, five-chapter masterpiece, which is also available for download at 5talentsaudio.com.
