A book giveaway!

My friend Sisterlisa from Apples of Gold / Growing in Grace is giving away a book! She wrote her review of Gary Chapman's new book Love as a way of life. You can read her review here. Gary Chapman is a very good author. I've read a couple of his Love Languages books. You can sign up in her thread to have your name entered for a chance to win one of the two copies she is giving away. If you post about the giveaway on your blog, then you'll get two chance to win- isn't that great?

A little snippet of knowledge, he is the senior associate pastor at the "big Calvary" church in my city. There are two 'Calvarys' in this area, ours, about 12 miles from the North end of the city, and the "big" one, towards the west side of the city. We refer to it as the "big" Calvary because it's about twice our size, LOL We're not small, but we're definitely not that big, either!

While we are talking about books, I would like to take a moment and give a shout out to a new Christian author that Lord willing is going to take the realm of Christian mysteries by storm- Lizzy Armentrout. She just released her first book A Vengeful Spirit last week:

"Welcome to Pilotview, NC; a quiet, peaceful town where nothing much happens.
That all changes when evil strikes the Irvin family. Why is someone targeting
Tucker's family? What could a 12 year old have done to bring such terror to his
home? Why is his father missing? Shelly Gale, his teacher, can't resist helping
one of her students as his family seems to go through trial after trial. You
won't be able to put this book down as you follow Shelly and Curly in their
quest to help the Irvins find who is responsible for turning Pilotview, NC
upside down! "

Lizzy herself is a Christian school teacher, and has an amazing testimony for the Lord. If you would like to purchase one of the books (if amazon is out of stock) let me know and I can "hook you up"! ;o)
