Book Giveway

While looking at some other blogs in my Google Reader, I came across a pretty cool idea for connecting with blog readers. My blog averages between 35 and 50 RSS subscribers. I’m not really sure why it fluctuates so much but it does [according to feedburner] and I am often curious as to who exactly makes up this subscriber list. So, in the spirit of connection, I thought I would do a little book giveaway contest. The process is simple. 

  1. Leave me a comment on this post letting me know you are a subscriber [or if you just check this blog sporadically] 
  2.  I’ll collect all those names and put them into a drawing. 
  3.  Winner will receive their choice of a brand new copy of one of my three favorite books. If you’re local, I’ll hand deliver. Those outside of DFW, I’ll drop a copy in the mail. 
Your books choices will be Excavating Jesus by John Dominic Crossan, The Challenge of Jesus by N.T. Wright, or Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell. 
Drop me a comment if you would like to be entered into the drawing.

    Do we get brownie points (or extra names in the drawing) when we read AND discuss with our friends on Thursdays?! Yes, I do read and I even try to learn something new.

    I think I deserve to win because I check David's blog everyday and because I want world peace! :o )

  5. Thanks to everyone who has commented so far. Yes Goat, it is a blatant attempt for interaction. I didn't put this in the original post, but we'll do the drawing the first of next week.

    Thanks for reading.
