Weekly Giveaway (12/10)

“Find out how much God has given you and from it take what you need; the remainder is needed by others.” – St. Augustine

Because I’ve built up a large collection of duplicate books and resources, each week I’m giving away one or more of these items, absolutely free, no strings attached. To see a list of past giveaways, go here.

I previously called this “Free Stuff Friday”, accepting entries from Friday morning to Saturday morning, but I’m now stretching out the giveaway through the whole week. You can enter anytime during the week for that week’s giveaway, with a new giveaway beginning each Friday.

This week’s giveaway is a copy of Anthony DeStefano’s “A Travel Guide to Heaven“. Heaven is one of those topics most people think they understand, but when they try and articulate what they know about it, things get murky.

Using the Bible as his guide, the author notes that heaven is not only a spiritual place, but also a physical place, a fabulous “luxury resort” more sumptuous than any on Earth. The residents are real, their bodies transformed into their most perfect selves—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. By making a spiritual subject immensely physical, the book provides a picture of amazing places to visit, things to do, luxuries for pampering—not to mention deep, abiding joy.

Combining the clarity and logic of C. S. Lewis with a terrific sense of fun and adventure, DeStefano creates a brilliant, reassuring portrait of heaven, a place that has intrigued and puzzled humankind throughout history.

To enter to win, fill out your name and e-mail address in the form below. None of your information will ever be given out, and I will only use it to contact the winner. The winner will be selected on Saturday using a random generator, and the giveaway item(s) will be sent out, free-of-charge, shortly thereafter.

In the future, I will be giving away books, CD’s, and DVD’s, sometimes more than one item per giveaway. Check back next Friday!

(One entry per person, please. The deadline for each entry will be 11:59pm each Friday. Since I’m covering the shipping costs, only residents within the continental United States will be eligible to win.)

Update: The drawing is closed for the week beginning on Friday, 12/10. Congratulations to Brandon S. for winning this week–check your e-mail for instructions on receiving the book. And check the blog for the next giveaway!
