Author Lance T. Crawford’s New Audiobook, “Spiritual Growth Through Travels, Nature, and Living Life,” Reveals How the Author Found Spiritual Healing & Personal Growth
With a BA from California State University at Long Beach and an MS from California State University at Fullerton, author Lance T. Crawford retired from a sixteen-year career as an educator in the public school system in 2008. Prior to his teaching career, Crawford worked in various other fields, including real estate sales, financial services, and pharmaceutical and nutritional sales. Some of his favorite activities outside of writing and traveling include reading, trekking in the local hills and mountains, cooking favorite dishes, beach walks, and being in nature, opera, stage theater, and various live music events. Currently, he resides near the coast in Santa Barbara, California.
In “Spiritual Growth Through Travels, Nature, and Living Life,” the author describes many ways he has grown internally as a result of his travels and bonding with nature, from riding on a train from Long Beach to New Orleans, Louisiana, at age one in the middle of World War II, to a 520-mile pilgrimage trek on the Camino de Santiago in his mid-seventies.
“I am a lifelong traveler, or pilgrim. Along the way in life, I have come to realize the connection between traveling and spiritual growth,” writes Crawford. “Travel can take on many dimensions or purposes: family or business, education, pleasure vacations, curiosity about groups of people and places of interest, and pilgrimages, to name a few.”
Crawford continues, “I see many areas of behavior that run counter to having a peaceful, cooperating society. The realization of a spiritual nature within each of us, I believe, can help societies to overcome many of the negative trends that I outlined above.”
Published by Audiobook Network, author Lance T. Crawford’s new audiobook is a profound series that reveals the ways in which the author has gained immeasurable insight and knowledge by witnessing the many ways others live throughout his travels. By sharing his experiences, Crawford hopes to pass on these life lessons to listeners of all backgrounds and help to foster a future of understanding and growth.
Listeners can purchase the audiobook edition of “Spiritual Growth Through Travels, Nature, and Living Life: There are many roads to realizing one’s inner-self” by Lance T. Crawford through Audible, the Apple iTunes store, or Amazon.

‘SALIGIA’ Inverts the Seven Deadly Sins: New Book Explores Virtues Through Mythological Fantasy
Balle Balle Radio Entertainment Desk
Author Tagore Almeida’s new book, “SALIGIA: The Evil Is Outside. The War Is Within.,” is now available on Amazon, according to the announcement promoting the release.
The title is not invented for the book. SALIGIA is a centuries-old Latin mnemonic device used in Christian theology to remember the seven deadly sins: Superbia (pride), Avaritia (greed), Luxuria (lust), Invidia (envy), Gula (gluttony), Ira (wrath) and Acedia (sloth). The sins themselves never appear as an explicit list in the Bible; the grouping developed within early Christian tradition, drawing on scattered biblical passages, and the acronym became a memory aid for clergy and laypeople alike. The announcement itself does not spell out this connection, though it’s central to how the book’s central conceit works.
Where the traditional mnemonic catalogs vices, Almeida’s book inverts it: according to the announcement, the story is structured as a journey through a symbolic ancestral dwelling with separate rooms, each embodying different virtues rather than sins — courage, compassion, humility, integrity, forgiveness, reverence and love. Other promotional material describes the book as a mythological fantasy following characters named Salem and Medea on a quest against the forces the title names, and credits the release to publisher The Alcove Publishers, which has described the book as blending mythology, self-reflection and mystery.
The announcement frames the project as “a fusion of mythological elements, spiritual themes, philosophical inquiry, and personal exploration,” built around the idea that readers already possess the virtues the book examines, rather than seeking them from external sources.
The book is currently listed for sale on Amazon under Almeida’s author page.

Terry Ginn has published "For Such a Time as This," a contemporary military thriller that reimagines the biblical narrative of Esther, according to the publisher, Christian Faith Publishing. The book follows a former CIA operative rescued by a Navy SEAL team and brought aboard an aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf, where he pushes a Navy corpsman from the Missouri Ozarks to read the Old Testament account of Esther — and the two begin to see parallels between ancient persecution of the Jewish people and a present-day plot targeting Israel and other major cities.
Ginn grounds the story in his personal history: childhood in the Ozark hills and Navy service aboard an aircraft carrier during Vietnam, experience he has said shaped the novel’s naval detail. He has also described the Book of Esther as, in his words, the greatest "sting operation" in biblical history — a framing that underpins the book’s central comparison between the ancient narrative and its modern-day parallel plot. Ginn spent four years writing the novel, per the announcement.
"I wanted to illustrate God’s unwavering love for His people and show how Jesus’s death and resurrection makes eternal life possible for all believers," Ginn said in a statement released with the book. "By connecting Esther’s courage with contemporary challenges, I hoped to demonstrate that faith remains relevant and powerful in our modern world."
The novel centers on themes of redemption and what the publisher describes as divine providence — the concept that their encounter and purpose are ordained rather than coincidental. It was published through Christian Faith Publishing, a Christian-market publishing house, and is available now in bookstores and through Apple Books, Amazon, Google Play and Barnes & Noble.
No release date beyond the announcement was provided, and there’s no indication yet of whether the book is part of a planned series.
