Soundtrack Saturday #3

Sound track Saturday is hosted by Erin at The Hardcover Lover which you can visit here. The idea is to list out the soundtrack you listened to while read whatever book you are currently reading...

So here goes.

This week is a repeat since I am still reading the following

Reading:

Title: Seek and Hide
Author: Amanda G. Stevens

Summary: 
Six years ago, the government took control of the church. Only re-translated Bibles are legal, and a specialized agency called the Constabulary enforces this and other regulations. Marcus Brenner, a new Christian, will do anything to protect his church family from imprisonment—including risk his own freedom to gain the trust of a government agent.

Aubrey Weston recanted her faith when the Constabulary threatened her baby. Now released, she just wants to provide for her son and avoid government notice. But she’s targeted again, and this time, her baby is taken into custody. If only she’d never denied Him, maybe God would hear her pleas for help.

When Aubrey and Marcus’s lives collide, they are forced to confront the lies they believe about themselves. And God is about to grab hold of Marcus’s life in a way he’d never expect, turning a loner into a leader.

Soundtrack 
So this is a soundtrack based on Christian themes as the book is about God and not being able to worship

1. Til the Day I Die by Toby Mac feat NF
2. Before the Morning by Josh Wilson
3. Hurricane by Jimmy Needham
4. First by  Lauren Daigle
5. He is With Us by Love & The Outcome
6.  I Believe by Chris August
7. Need You Now by Plumb
8. The Proof of Your Love by For King & Country
9. I Refuse by Josh Wilson
10. He Said by Group 1 Crew

I could actually go on but these are the songs that get me through struggles and I felt hat Aubrey and Marcus are really going through struggles during this book so I recommend they listen to this if that was allowed.

Soundtrack Saturday ~ #1

We have a new book meme to help me with Saturday's!!! Thank the lawd cause Saturday is a hard day to post on.. So this one is called sound track Saturday and it is hosted by Erin at The Hardcover Lover which you can visit here. The idea is to list out the soundtrack you listened to while read whatever book you are currently reading...

So here goes.

Reading:

Title: Augustus: The life of Rome's First Emperor
Author: Anthony Everitt

Summary:
He found Rome made of clay and left it made of marble. As Rome’s first emperor, Augustus transformed the unruly Republic into the greatest empire the world had ever seen. His consolidation and expansion of Roman power two thousand years ago laid the foundations, for all of Western history to follow. Yet, despite Augustus’s accomplishments, very few biographers have concentrated on the man himself, instead choosing to chronicle the age in which he lived. Here, Anthony Everitt, the bestselling author of Cicero, gives a spellbinding and intimate account of his illustrious subject. 

Augustus began his career as an inexperienced teenager plucked from his studies to take center stage in the drama of Roman politics, assisted by two school friends, Agrippa and Maecenas. Augustus’s rise to power began with the assassination of his great-uncle and adoptive father, Julius Caesar, and culminated in the titanic duel with Mark Antony and Cleopatra.
The world that made Augustus–and that he himself later remade–was driven by intrigue, sex, ceremony, violence, scandal, and naked ambition. Everitt has taken some of the household names of history–Caesar, Brutus, Cassius, Antony, Cleopatra–whom few know the full truth about, and turned them into flesh-and-blood human beings.

At a time when many consider America an empire, this stunning portrait of the greatest emperor who ever lived makes for enlightening and engrossing reading. Everitt brings to life the world of a giant, rendered faithfully and sympathetically in human scale. A study of power and political genius, Augustus is a vivid, compelling biography of one of the most important rulers in history.

SOUNDTRACK
Usually while listening to biographies of this nature I tend to turn on a station vs playing albums I have but with Augustus I feel like he is very powerful and would be for a movement... so I pick these 10 powerful songs for Augustus

1. Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth 
2. My Shot - The Roots (remix of Hamilton Soundtrack)
3. Perfect - Hedley
4. Castle - Hasley
5. Another One Bites the Dust - Queen
6. Alright - Kendrick Lamar
7. Break on Through to the Other Side - The Doors 
8. A Change Is Gonna Come - Sam Cooke 
9. Fortunate Son - Creedence Clearwater Revival 
10. The Times They Are A Changing - Bob Dylan
