| Book Give-away |
In the interest of promoting Christian education, and to expand my practice of promoting other people’s work, I’ve decided to do a periodic book give-away. I haven’t decide how often, but I am tentatively thinking it will be quarterly, or monthly, at most. Now, I need your input. I will probably begin with a simple drawing, but I would like to try something more creative, like a contest. However, I want it to be fair, and I haven’t thought of a contest that I could judge fairly. I would appreciate any clever ideas you might have.

How about some sort of Biblical topic quiz?
A riddle?
Name that quote?
Best story in 20 words or less?
Marksmanship competitions are always fun, heh. ;)
Nathan
Reward the best North Dakota jokes.
David
Scott,
A shooting competition sounds great. The best things still can't be done on the internet.
Nathan,
I've heard them all.
danny wright
Just go ahead and send me a book. I won!
Pam
Greetings David, glad you are back! How about you post a pic, then you pick the winner of the person who posted the best description of the pic? These always end up being funny, deep or just plain stupid ... either way we all gain something! Your children could help pick the winners, get's everyone in on the game ...
Ken Fields
I have a solution ... let me be the judge!
David
OK, here's the contest: write 1000 words on why you like the Thirsty Theologian better than The World from Our Window. Send your essays to Ken to be judged. Then I'll just send the book to Danny.

Truly, if my speeche bewray me, it seemeth good that thou myghtest knowe how thy syt seemeth wondrous faire unto myne eyes.
This contest of which thou speeketh seemeth to be better, were it settled by sendyng thy books to me.

If thy postage needeth to be payde, tell me whither I maye send my moneys, and it shall be so.
Jane
I believe the best contest would consist of folks writing a description of the one Christian book which has not yet been written, but should be. Then the most obviously correct entry wins your book.
Rey
How about People with names that start with Rey and in with Naldo?
David
Clever, Rey. Almost got me with that one, you did. I think I'm going to ask all you wise guys to donate books.
rebecca
I have a brand new copy of "The God Who Risks" by John Sanders I'll donate.
David
Rebecca,
You're being facetious, right? I'm not familiar with that title, but it sounds like open theism.
White Badger
Why thinkest thou that she would parte wyth it?
rebecca
Yep, it's a joke, and you are really good at assessing books by the title, and white badger is really good at assessing the reason I want to part with it. I really do have a copy that I no longer want. Actually, I never did want it, and I've never known quite what to do with it.
