This Doesn't Fit (Dharius Daniels)

From Alexandra Christo, the author of To Kill a Kingdom, comes Princess of Souls, a Rapunzel-inspired YA fantasy romance about a teen witch groomed to steal souls for an immortal king and the reckless, rebellious boy to whom her fate is tied.

For 16 years, Selestra has been trapped in her tower on the Floating Mountain, preparing to take her mother’s place as the king's witch, who foretells deaths in the Festival of Predictions. Outrunning your fate earns a wish and the chance to steal the king’s immortality. But die and your soul is forfeit. And though thousands have tried, nobody has ever beaten death.

A soldier in the king's army, Nox is an unlikely candidate for the Festival, but, driven by revenge, he is determined to steal the king’s immortality and kill the entirety of his court, starting with Selestra.

Yet when Selestra touches Nox in her very first prediction, their fates become entwined, and death seeks to take both their souls. Only by working together can they survive long enough to escape the dark fate and the immortal king that now hunts them.

Princess of Souls Chapter 1 by Alexandra Christo, Narrated by Suzy Jackson & Will Collyer

In a city filled with dangerous yet heavily regulated alchemical magic, a man from the slums discovers he may be its only hope to survive certain destruction in this wickedly entertaining fantasy. 

Welcome to Bezim, where sword-slinging bravi race through the night and rich and idle alchemists make magic out of mixing and measuring the four planes of reality.

Siyon Velo, Dockside brat turned petty alchemist, scrapes a living hopping between the planes to harvest ingredients for the city’s alchemists. But when Siyon accidentally commits an act of impossible magic, he’s catapulted into the limelight—which is a bad place to be when the planes start lurching out of alignment, threatening to send Bezim into the sea.

It will take a miracle to save the city. Good thing Siyon has pulled off the impossible before. Now he just has to master it.

A dazzling fantasy bursting with wild magic, chaotic sword-fighting street gangs, brazen flirting, malevolent harpies, and one defiant alchemist.

"From the razor-sharp social climbing to the glimmering alchemist's library to the hidden realms beneath it all, I loved getting lost in this dazzling debut." —Shannon Chakraborty

Notorious Sorcerer by Davinia Evans Read by Kirsten Foster - Audiobook Excerpt

Discover exactly who you were created to be and what you were created to do by learning to see yourself the way God sees you.

The key to understanding, embracing, and unleashing your God-given uniqueness is possessing an accurate picture of your true identity. After all, if you don't know who you are, how could you ever know what you've been born to do?

In Your Purpose Is Calling, Dr. Dharius Daniels, founder of Change Church, takes you on a journey of discovering your identity through a threefold solution of finding fulfillment, fit, and fruitfulness. In the process, you'll learn to:

Overcome the obstacles - such as comparison, approval seeking, and emotional injuries - that inhibit you from fully embracing yourself
Exit the boat of normal living and step onto the sea of the abnormal
Thrive through effective self-leadership
Uncover your unique design, desires, dreams, and destiny
God says that his people are exceptional, which means your future need not be limited by the world's expectations. Move forward with the confidence that your individual purpose is as unique and exceptional as you are.

YOUR PURPOSE IS CALLING by Dr. Dharius Daniels | Chapter One

YOUR PURPOSE IS CALLING by Dr. Dharius Daniels | Introduction

'Rich and immersive. . . full of mesmerizing magic!' P. Djèlí Clark, author of A Master of Djinn

Clara Johnson can talk to spirits - a gift that saved her during her darkest moments, now a curse that's left her indebted to the cunning spirit world.

So when a powerful spirit offers her an opportunity to gain her freedom, Clara seizes the chance. The task: steal a magical ring from the wealthiest woman in the District.

Clara can't pull off this daring heist alone. She'll need the help of an unlikely team: from a handsome jazz musician able to hypnotize with a melody, to an aging actor who can change his face.
But as conflict in the spirit world begins to leak into the human one - an insidious mystery is unfolding, one that could cost Clara her life.

Arresting Anxiousness (Dr. Dharius Daniels)

Exclusively on Audible, an original audio documentary narrated by award-winning actress Mary-Louise Parker.

It’s always hard to make the crowd laugh — especially when joking about war, PTSD, and mental health. Strong Ending follows three military veterans as they attempt to turn their most painful stories into laughs by participating in a stand-up comedy boot camp.

After joining the military, deploying to combat zones, and coming home fundamentally changed, Michael Garvey, Isaura Ramirez, and Patrick Harth challenge themselves to share their stories on stage and perform original stand up-comedy about their experiences for a packed house.

Narrated by Emmy and Tony award-winning actress Mary-Louise Parker and featuring interviews with professional comedians Rob Riggle (The Daily Show, The Hangover) and Maria Bamford (Lady Dynamite, Arrested Development), Strong Ending explores the science behind the healing power of laughter and the role of military-comedies in popular culture.

Is laughter really the best medicine? Listen to find out: Audible.com/StrongEnding

How do we begin to make sense of our hurts, heartbreaks, and setbacks?

In “I See It Now,” Pastor Dharius Daniels of Change Church shows us that even when we don’t understand why we’re going through something, God is still at work.
