Free Stuff Fridays (Matthias Media)

This week the blog and the giveaway have been sponsored by Matthias Media.

Matthias Media is hosting Evangelize 2024 in Denver, Colorado on October 7-9, 2024. We have partnered with 10ofThose, Calvary Family of Churches and Vinegrowers to help you raise the evangelistic temperature at your church. We want to motivate and equip people to know the gospel deeply and share it confidently. Will you join Mack Stiles, Tony Payne, Felicity Carswell and more this fall? Let’s help each other become growing churches which are, under God, more effective in proclaiming the gospel to the friends, family and neighbors around us who so desperately need to hear it.

Giveaway: Two FREE registrations to the conference ($398 value) and two FREE copies of Growth and Change

We are giving away two free registrations to Evangelize 2024 so that you and a spouse, co-worker, co-leader or whomever you’d like can come. We also are giving away two free copies of Growth and Change. This book directly addresses, as Tim Challies wrote, the “concern that many churches—many of our churches—have too little concern for the growth of their churches and, therefore, for the salvation of the people in their communities.”

To Enter:

Giveaway Rules: Entries are limited to 1 per person. U.S. and Canadian addresses only. By submitting your information, you agree to receive regular updates about the ministry of Matthias Media.

The free registrations are for entry to the conference only and do not include travel expenses to and from Denver. Enter your information into the form below or by clicking here.

  • Thriving Marriage

    Thriving Marriage

    I have often wondered about the best time to write a book about marriage. When a couple is young, there is so much about marriage they have not yet experienced. They can still impart wisdom and teach lessons, of course, but there is so much of marriage that remains unknown to them. Yet when a…

    The Stranger: A Short Film For You

    Based on a true story and inspired by the truth that character comes before competence, “The Stranger” is an honest, light-hearted and meaningful picture of what it means to truly serve others.
