A Box of Books Giveaway

Do you love free books? 

Every once in awhile I share the pile of books that I’m reading. Not all of those books fit on my shelf (that’s a good thing and a bad thing – grins), and I’ve been saving a box of them to give away to one of you all! 

Many of the books are in brand new condition, but a few others may have some underlining or an earmarked corner or two. A chunk of them are from my 2016 reading list, but others are ones that have been pulled off the shelf to make room for another book or two currently on my list. 

Here’s a list of what’s in the box – 17 books total (and a study guide for one). Hopefully one or more of these are on your list and you’d love to have them in your home – or to share with friends. 

To enter the giveaway, use the widget below to enter. Giveaway ends Tuesday, February 28th at 11:59pm and is open to those with a US mailing address only.

Seeds of Christmas CD/DVD Giveaway

We received this product at no cost in exchange for our honest review. All opinions expressed are solely mine.

Our family has loved the music of Seeds Family Worship for years. Over six years to be exact. Their songs have been played throughout our house repeatedly, we have shared albums with friends, and often theirs are the songs that come to my mind in the middle of the night when I wake up and feel overwhelmed. 

seeds-of-christmas_combo_pack

Seeds has always done an amazing job putting Scripture to contemporary music and making it applicable in so many new ways. Just in time for Christmas, they have released Seeds of Christmas and you all will love this newest addition.

The last bit, I’ve been listening to the songs – yes, I know, Christmas music – but I am justifying it by the fact each song is a Bible verse. No sleigh bells – only a focus on the following six verses that lead up to the birth of Christ and reason for His arrival: 

  1. To Us a Child is Born – Isaiah 9:6, John 3:16
  2. To the Ends of the Earth – Micah 5:2-5
  3. Call His Name Immanuel – Isaiah 7:14
  4. Mary’s Song of Praise – Luke 1:46-50
  5. God With Us – Matthew 1:18-24
  6. Joy – Luke 2:8-14

Mary’s Song of Praise (Luke 1:46-50) is probably my favorite…

And Mary said, “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for He has looked on the humble estate of His servant. For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed; for He who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is His name. And His mercy is for those who fear Him from generation to generation.”

Here is a preview of the songs on Seeds of Christmas…
