book giveaway #6 ... and a free gift for everyone!

The next book I'm giving away is Radical by David Platt. I'm about halfway through it right now, and it is so challenging and convicting. Platt's purpose is to show how the American "brand" of Christianity isn't true Christianity at all, but rather an extension of the American Dream. He then challenges Christians to live out an authentic faith. I'm reading with a pen close by, and I've marked up the book with underlining, questions, and notes.

Read the first chapter here, and then leave a comment by Friday, May 7, if you'd like to win a copy.

Also, everyone can get a free copy of "The Radical Question," a short booklet adapted from Radical (while supplies last). You don't even have to pay for shipping! Click here to get yours. Learn more at radicalthebook.com.

The opinions I have expressed are my own.

    I would like to submit my name for consideration for your drawing. I am highly qualified, overly, in fact, for winning drawings. Although I've never actually won, I believe it is because others are intimidated by my skills and overwhelming physical prowess and therefore deliberately ensure that I fail. Also, I have extensive knowledge of bears, beets, and Battlestar Galactica.

    Oooh. I want this book! I love the part where the pastor said "I'm here to talk you out of following Jesus." That was great. I know a pre-marital counselor who says his goal in the counseling process is to break a couple up. Because if that can happen, it should happen before they make a covenant.
