Congrats!

Here’s how the giveaways during Fall Into Reading 2011 work:

Every Wednesday, I will post about a new book that’s up for grabs. If it sounds like a book you’d like and you want to be eligible to win it, just leave a comment on the post and I’ll put your name in the virtual hat. (You do not have to be a Fall Into Reading participant to enter these giveaways.) I’ll leave the post open for comments until the following Tuesday at noon. I’ll then randomly pick a commenter and announce that person as the winner when I put up the next giveaway.

Also, I apologize to my international readers, but these giveaways are only open to readers in the U.S. at this time.

Now for this week’s giveaway…

A Woman’s Guide to Fasting
by Lisa E. Nelson

From the publisher:
Woman's Guide to Fasting, A

The only how-to fasting guide for women

When women think of fasting, many of us think of grumbling stomachs, low energy, and high-stress days. Add to that our full, fast-paced lives, and the act of fasting can quickly become a major inconvenience. But this is not what it should be!

With warmth and experience, Lisa Nelson provides everything you need to know to make fasting a natural, powerful part of your life–even if you have a family to feed, have a work schedule to keep, or have tried unsuccessfully before.

Offering insights and realistic advice specifically for women, she answers vital questions such as:

  • How do I fit fasting into a busy schedule?
  • How should I prepare physically? Spiritually?
  • What should I do — and expect — before, during, and after a fast?
  • What cautions should I be aware of?
  • What are the best ways to end a fast?
  • How can I make the most out of a non-food fast?

When you learn how to fast successfully, you can — and will — experience God in a whole new way.

Complete with tips for all types of fasts — including the Daniel fast!
