Last Wednesday, Jason Stasyszen and I finished facilitating our second book discussion on Craig Groeschel’s tremendous book, The Christian Atheist. Several of you joined us for that discussion and I never could have predicted the lessons and blessings that God gave through the study and discussion. So many weeks, the process was one of pulling scabs off of my heart and pouring on God’s healing. I am simply amazed and utterly grateful at what God did in me and I believe in all of us through that study.
Now, it’s time to move on and I really believe that God’s taking us through a natural and necessary progression. Our last two books have dealt with the inner man, but our newest book, The Hole in Our Gospel, by Richard Stearns is going to take that inside work and thrust it out into the world. It’s time to take the lessons and march with them!
If you haven’t had a chance to familiarize yourself with this book, you can take my word that it’s awesome (since I’ve read about twenty-five pages of it) or you can click here for more information.
My co-facilitator and I would like to invite you to join us. There are a few ways you can do this.
FIRST- I can’t say this enough. As much as we want you to read along with us, we want you to come participate regardless of whether you’ve done the reading or not. (But c’mon! You know you wanna read along!)
SECOND- You can purchase a copy of The Hole in Our Gospel by clicking the link.
THIRD- Jason and I are each giving away one copy of the book. That gives you two chances to win! Next week, we will each announce a winner. Then, the following week, we will begin discussion.
So, I’m sure you want to know how to win.
- Each time you comment on this post, you’ll earn one entry.
- Each time you tweet or retweet about the giveaway, you’ll earn one entry. (Just make sure you mention me — @sarahmsalter – when you tweet or retweet so that I can track your entries!)
- Each time you mention the giveaway on your website, blog, or Facebook, you’ll earn three entries. (You’re going to want to leave me a comment – with a link – to let me know what you’ve done and get credit for your entries.)
The winner will be chosen next Tuesday night by random number generator. It’s just that simple!
When you leave here today, be sure to go by Jason’s site to enter there. I’ll see you back here next Wednesday to announce the winner! Then, two weeks from today, we will dive into our first chapter!
Okay friends, comment and tweet away! (And go by Jason’s place to do the same…)
You did a much better job of breaking it down! If I weren’t so tired, I’d go back and redo mine. 🙂 Plus, please enter me in your giveaway, that way if I win then you can send a book to the winner on my blog. Ha! Kidding of course, but I am excited about this new book. Thanks Sarah!
HA! Thanks, Jason. Yours wasn’t bad at all. I don’t know what you’re talking about! And no, you can’t enter my giveaway! Rest well! Tomorrow’s a big day! I love giveaways! 🙂
The book looks good. I don’t want to win though. I’d rather it go to someone else who will participate.
I love what you guys do.
Looks interesting.
I’d really enjoy taking part in this….
Michael- Thanks for commenting! We would love to hear anything you have to add!
Helen & Karin- You’re entered! Thanks for coming by! 🙂

Count me in for the giveaway Sarah—-Thanks!
You’re in, Ryan! Thanks so much! 🙂
I intend to participate in the discussion, but I do *not* want to win the book.
I was almost finished reading it and left it in a hotel room. So yeah, I want it. Everyone else should let me have it because I’m a good woman.
Herb, I look forward to discussing this book with you! 🙂
Consider a comment left :o)
Oh, and another (dumb emoticons)
Did I mention that I’d love to read the book?
Oh, and I love that you and Jason are doing book series now. It’s awesome.
And another thing… love ya!
Sad that I’m the only one without a picture 🙁
Awwww! I’m pullin’ for you, Sherri! (I left an unread book with my missionary wife in Sudan.)
Thanks for the opportunity! Looks great!
