FIR Giveaway: Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room

It’s time for another Fall Into Reading 2011 book giveaway (and this one is sponsored by me!). But before I tell you about this week’s book, let me reveal the winner of last week’s giveaway.

The winner of My Life and Lesser Catastrophes is:

Comment #7: Amy {A Faithful Journey}

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.

This week, the timing is a little different. The book I’m giving away is a family Advent devotional and I want to make sure I get it to the winner by December 1st. So just for this week, the giveaway will end at noon on Monday. I’ll announce the winner on Wednesday with the next giveaway, but I’ll contact the winner Monday via email, to get a mailing address and get the book winging on its way.

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…

Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room
by Nancy Guthrie

From the publisher:

Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room: Daily Family Devotions for AdventHow many Christmas mornings have you found your family gathered around the tree with presents beautifully wrapped and a scrumptious feast on the table, but with hearts that have not been prepared to truly take in the wonder of God become human? Not this year. Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room, a family Advent devotional from Bible teacher and mom Nancy Guthrie, is designed to bring your family together during a season that is oftentimes too much about programs and presents, and simply not enough about Jesus. Along with devotions for every day in December, this resource includes explanations of some hard-to-understand aspects of popular Christmas carols, and discussion questions to draw in your elementary through high school-aged kids, transforming this time together from a dry lecture into a treasured family experience.

  12. Oh, oh, OH! Sounds just like something I’d love to rope my family into! ;) Have you ever heard of “The Christmas Mystery” by Norwegian author Jostein Gaarder? (He also wrote “Sophie’s World.”) It is one of my absolutely most favorite books. It’s two stories in one – the story of a boy who finds a “magic” Advent calendar, and the story within the calendar. There’s a chapter for each day in December until Christmas, just like an Advent calendar. When my first son was a baby I thought I’d make a family tradition of reading that book out loud together, but the chapters are a bit long for reading aloud, especially when wiggly kids are involved. So I just read it to myself every year. It sounds like this book is more “family activity” friendly. :) Thanks!
