If you read my blog with any regularity, you’ve probably heard me say that my office looks like a theological bookstore exploded in it. While I put forth valiant efforts to clean it up, I always seem to end up with stacks of books everywhere. Part of that challenge is due to my diminishing shelf space. In order to combat this problem, I’m going to give away some books in honor of Thanksgiving! In a sense, my problem is your gain. There will be 6 items (5 books & 1 CD) available to win. To enter, please leave a comment sharing what you’re thankful for this Thanksgiving. Also, indicate which item is your first choice, should you be chosen as a winner. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can select the mystery prize. Winners will be selected on Sunday November 29th. Prizes will be shipped during the week of the November 30th. The available prizes are listed below. Good luck! This contest is now closed. You can see the winners here: LINK.

I’m thankful for being part of a local body of believers that encourages me throughout the week, helps me develop close personal relationships (which is not my strong point) and appreciates my unique interests. I love that God chose to work through the church to help us learn how to love and serve one another. Leave it to God to give us exactly what we need!
My first choice would be the Hebrew-English Lexicon.
Peace!

I am thankful for my wife. I was away from here for a whole week while in New Orleans and I missed her very much. It just reminded me to thank God everyday for the amazing partner he has given me.
I’ll be adventurous and go with the mystery prize!
I’m thankful to be a Christian…that was humanly impossible for me to achieve.
Thankful to be a father. That was once humanly impossible in my family situation. Three years ago, however, God sent a little boy to my house two days before Thanksgiving. He was eight weeks old. Thirty days later we got his older sister who was almost two years old.
Thanksgiving and Christmas are always special because we remember our adoption story.
My first choice would be the Hebrew-English Lexicon, too. I’m not greedy, however. I’ll take what’s left
I’m thankful for all those things I mentioned on my blog earlier today, but most importantly, I’m thankful for taking your advice and not eating too much.
Oh, and I’m thankful for my house not imploding due to my ever expanding library. I suppose I’ll go with the majority and say that the lexicon interests me most.
I’m thankful for our church-wide participation in “The Bible in 90 Days” which I finished today. First time I have ever read through the Bible from cover to cover…what an awesome experience. I’d lean towards the Holman Illustrated Guide or the Mystery Book.
I have great gratitude for God’s grace that revealed to me the truth of his Son, Jesus Christ. God’s grace that gave me a wife that reveals his favor towards me. God’s grace that gave me wonderful kids that he will use me to draw to himself. God’s grace that gives me all that I need to live a godly life for his glory.
In Christ,
Matt
I’m grateful for a long holiday weekend spent with family, giving thanks together for all the many ways that God has blessed us.
I’d be interested in that Greek CD …
I am grateful for the opportunity to be with family and look back at the blessings God has provided us over the past year.
I am interested in “Sing and Learn New Testament Greek”. I have been teaching myself N.T. Greek so I can be a better Sunday School leader and teacher.
[...] on his post for a chance to win. He’s giving away some good titles, you’ll want to go take a peek. Happy Thanksgiving weekend to you all! And thanks, Shaun, for some book giveaway [...]
I’m thankful for the spiritual growth I see in my children. I’m thankful that Jesus cares about my family, my children and me. I’m so thankful for His sustaining grace.
I also enjoyed reading the Courtship of Miles Standish on Thanksgiving, and am thankful my ancestor is John Alden, not Miles Standish (or at least not how Longfellow makes him out to be…).
Okay, I’m interested in the More than A Skeleton book by Paul Maier.

I’m thankful for the transforming power of God’s grace. He saved me from the destruction I deserved and gave me a new life in Christ and a wonderful family. If He had not pulled me from a horrible lifestyle of drug addiction and violence I’d still be an addict, in prison or worse. I praise Him for pulling me from such a miserable condition.
I’d be happy to win anything, but if I had to choose, I would probably go with the Hebrew Lexicon. I’m already taking Greek so it would be nice to get a head start on Hebrew
I’m thankful for my parents. All they’ve done and sacrificed to get me this far, and to prepare me for life.
Oh, and first choice would be the Hebrew Lexicon. Second would be the Mystery Gift.
I am thankful that we have an awesome God (Deut 10:17; Neh 1:5) with an awesome name (Psalm 99:3; 111:9) who performs awesome deeds (Psalm 66:3,5) and has an awesome presence (Gen 28:17; Deut 7:21)
And I would go for the mystery book.
I am thankful you are giving away books. I have several young men in our congregation that are hungry for books to read, and I have been looking for resources to get them good, cheap books to put in their hands and build their library…thanks for the chance…I’ll take the Mystery book!
