Giveaways / Free Stuff Fridays Collection cover image

Free Stuff Fridays
This week’s sponsor of Free Stuff Fridays is Shepherd Press, a familiar name around here. Shepherd Press is giving away a couple of great new books. Actually, they’re giving away 10 of them in the form of 5 prize packages. They’ll also be sending each of the winners a package of M&Ms, but you’ll have to read one of the books to find out why.

Each winner will receive:

I do believe the books will even be signed by the authors.

Red Like Blood is the book that is hot off the press, available for the first time next week at Gospel Coalition. Here is what the publisher says about it:

Have you noticed that grace is most likely to flow into cracks formed by brokenness over our sin or circumstances? In Red Like Blood you will find story after story of brokenness and the grace that entered in. Some stories are from Joe, a pastor’s kid turned pastor. Some are from Bob, a prodigal come home. And some are from the many inspiring characters they have met along the way. The stories are often raw and always brutally transparent. Because wherever real grace flows, real brokenness was there first.

There’s a reason the book is titled Red Like Blood. Every chapter points to it. And it’s something you don’t want to miss–the source, the essence, the fountain of God’s grace. The Story that, with a common scarlet thread, ties all stories of confrontations with grace together.

Again, there are 5 prize packages to win.

Giveaway Rules: You may only enter the draw once. Simply fill out your name and email address to enter the draw. As soon as the winners have been chosen, all names and addresses will be immediately and permanently erased. Winners will be notified by email. The giveaway closes Saturday at noon.
