FREE Audio of a Series of Four Talks by N.T. Wright on "Hope in a Hopeless World."

NoiseTrade is currently offering a free audio of series of four talks by N.T. Wright entitled "Hope in a Hopeless World."

Most of us are familiar, at least, with NoiseTrade. The way that it works is that they ask for a tip for their ebook and audio offerings. But, you don't have to leave one if you don't want to. That's true of this audio. You do have to have an account with them, however.

Here's the blurb about the audio:
How do we live with true hope as Christians in the world?

Author and teacher N.T. Wright explores the hope we have in Christ and its implications for today, in four talks originally given at MacQuarie University in Sydney:
- The Confusion About Hope in the Contemporary World & the Contemporary Church
- The Resurrection of Jesus as the Ground Plan & Energizing Force of Christian Hope
- How Do You Think Through & Express the New Testament Vision of the Christian Hope?
- If We Have That Hope, How Does it Affect Us Here & Now?

I haven't listened to the audio, yet, so I don't know for sure how good the talks are. However, I have read after (and listened to) Wright some in the past. I know that 1) he is a popular writer in his genre, 2) he is a well-respected scholar, and 3) he writes and speaks in an engaging way in simple language that is easy to understand. Here is NoiseTrade's blurb about him with some additional information:
N. T. Wright is Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, and was formerly Bishop of Durham in England. His books include The Challenge of Jesus, Surprised by Hope, The New Testament for Everyone series, and Paul and the Faithfulness of God.

Here's the link. Here's a link to all of the audiobooks and ebooks at NoiseTrade that are available for download at the present time.

Happy listening.
