The Message Audio Bible giveaway

A couple years ago I received The Message Bible as a gift from a friend. At first I was a little taken back at how "modern" of a translation it was. But as I read it more for the overall understanding of particular passages, rather than for exact translations of verses, I began to really enjoy it. I have since bought the MP3 version and I really enjoy listening to it, because it is a very simple translation that is easy to understand.

Apparently, when the Bible was written, it was done in the "street" language of the day, and the author, Eugene Peterson, wanted to write a translation that really brought the Bible into the common language of today. Personally I think he has done a good job with The Message and I think it is a great supplement to normal Bible study. So, we are giving a copy away!

The copy up for grabs is the Whole Message Bible on MP3 CDs (which can easily be added to your computer or iPod). If you are interested in winning a copy, head over to the forums and leave a comment or you can leave a comment on this post as well.

Jay Peroni Seminar

Coming up this Tuesday night, Jay Peroni has a tele-seminar he is putting on. The cost is $20, but Jay wanted to get as many CPF readers in on it as possible, so he gave me a coupon code that will allow you to get in on it for a total of a buck. So if you plug in "christianpf" when you sign up you will save $19. You can find out more about the seminar here.

Free Stuff Friday Changes

As you may know we have been having giveaways every friday for a long time. I haven't been able to help notice that as the value of the giveaway increases the response greatly increases. So, I am tossing around the idea of just having giveaways once or twice a month and offering more valuable items each time. Basically I have a certain amount budgeted for the giveaways each month and I could either spread that between 4 giveaways, 2 giveaways, or 1 giveaway. So, if you have any thoughts, please share them in the comments.

10 Day Give

For those of you around last October, we had the first 10 Day Give. Basically, it was a challenge to give something to someone, everyday for 10 days. I found it to be a great way to help me get in the "mindset" of giving. We are going to again this year starting October 1st, so get ready! I will be talking about it a lot over the next month to try to get as many people involved as we can.
