Free Stuff Fridays (TGBC)

This week’s Free Stuff Friday is sponsored by The Good Book Company. They are giving away a copy of Alistair Begg’s new advent devotional, Let Earth Receive Her King, to prepare your heart for Christmas, along with a $200 gift card for you to purchase Christmas gifts for everyone on your list. 

Here are some of their newest titles, which are great for Christmas gifting:

  • The Christmas Story Brick by Brick – This faithful rhyming retelling of the Christmas story will help Lego-loving children to engage with the Christmas story afresh, highlighting the surprise and excitement of who Jesus is and why he came. Fun rhymes make for a memorable and enjoyable read, while richly colored, glossy photographs of real brick builds will inspire kids to get creative! Includes designs for five builds you can make yourself either at home or as a craft activity in children’s groups. 
  • It’s Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas – In this engaging, thoughtful, and winsome book, Andrew Wilson takes us to the first Christmas to show that what can make our Christmases truly special is Jesus, the light of the world. Andrew Wilson explains how Jesus makes a difference to the darkness of this world—and how he can make a difference to our lives too. This short and warmly-written book is perfect for giving away to family, friends, and neighbors, as well as giving away at Christmas services and Christmas outreach events.

Here are a few of their most popular Christmas titles:

  • A Christmas Promise Storybook – This captivating retelling of the Christmas story shows how God kept his promise to send a king unlike any other: a new, rescuing forever king. With superb illustrations by Catalina Echeverri and faithful, Bible-centered story-telling by Alison Mitchell, this is a gift that both parents and children will love.
  • Is Christmas Unbelievable? – Many people assume that the story of the baby in the manger at Bethlehem is just another made-up fantasy for kids. In this concise book, respected apologist Rebecca McLaughlin outlines the evidence that Jesus was a real person, explaining the reliability of the Bible’s accounts of his life and why believing in a virgin birth is not as ridiculous as it might sound. This book shows that there is a rational basis for the belief that the world’s most famous story is fact, not fantasy—and how those events in history can infuse our lives today with meaning and joy.

    What I Use (and Don’t Use) To Make this Site

    A friend recently said something that disquieted me. He said that he assumes I make use of AI in creating the articles I post to this site or in selecting the articles I link to on other sites. I suppose it’s a fair assumption since so many people across so many fields are now relying…

    Are You a Good Investor?

    Sometimes you read a book and realize quickly that it probably won’t make a tremendous difference to your life.
