listen up

I love learning though not usually by reading. Rather, I like to listen. I listen to conferences, seminars, books, workshops, and anything else I can get my hands on--mainly in the areas of my Christian faith, home education, history, the family, parenting, classic literature, or some mixture of these.

I do read. However, most of the reading I do is out loud. For example, I've been reading Parenting by the Book by John Rosemond out loud with Johnny. (Excellent parenting book.) Also, I read out loud a lot to my children. I never read the Winnie the Pooh stories until this past year. So glad I did! What a delight to read them to the kids!

I do some silent reading, but I find I don't pick up as much. I've found the best way to read my Bible is to put on my headphones and follow along. And the best way for me to listen to all those seminars is while I'm doing something. I can't just sit; I must do. I suspect I'm some kind of audio/kinesthetic learner. I have my IPod on mainly while I do housework and gardening.

Enough about me.

The reason I'm writing this is so that I can share with you all the wonderful audio resources I've come across. You'll see them listed in the sidebar. Many I download directly through I-Tunes. And best of all, they are all FREE! I hope you will enjoy them as much as I do.
