This month’s free book from Logos is Creation and Fall, from the works of Dietrich Bonhoeffer; free from ChristianAudio is Anna and the King of Siam.

Westminster Books is giving you a $5 coupon, good for anything in the store, if you watch a 5-minute video (about a product that looks really good).
