Update: The comments are now closed! I’ll see you tomorrow morning as we reveal our TEN winners. Have a great day, ladies!
Siestas!
Happy middle-of-the-week to each of you!
It is a beautiful day here in Houston! It’s almost perfect spring weather, which is a compete treat especially compared to the weather we’ve endured recently. It’s either been really hot and humid (shocker!), or really nasty thunderstorms. In fact, yesterday was 100% chance of rain all day and it did just that. The best part about the rainy days at LPM are our shoes; three of us chose to trade in our typical work shoes for rain boots yesterday and it was a cute sight, if I do say so myself. We were giddy. Y’all, it really is the small things. I hope wherever you are, despite your weather or circumstances, you’re able to find delight in something as small as rain boots, silly or small as they may seem.
Anyway, can you believe it’s already been a week since our last giveaway? All of the sudden I realized today was the day to reveal our next fun giveaway so my fingers went to typing. It snuck up on me!
Do y’all remember (and I bet you do because it happened to be a pretty popular post and you also happen to have a sharp memory), when our Siesta Mama asked you to share with each other something really random that you love? That particular day she was gushing over her Bible atlas and felt the urgent need to share with you the joy it brings her. I distinctly remember her telling me she was posting a fun, random blog that day so that I could be watching for comments, and watch for comments I did! Y’all didn’t just come through; y’all went above and beyond with over one thousand comments or something fun like that. We were really tickled! Needless to say, people are passionate about things they love.
To refresh your memory, here is a picture of the Bible atlas.
To make a really long story short (I know, I love words), B&H Publishing Group was really generous and sent us ten Holman Bible Atlases to give away on our blog, just like the one she gushed over! Y’all, how kind was that? So, today not just one, but ten of you will be receiving this amazing Bible atlas.
This is the box of atlases sitting in my office.
For a chance to win here is what you need to do:
1) Make sure your comment has your first and last name.
2) Please comment only one time to give everyone a fair chance.
3) For fun, and you don’t have to do this to win, but it would be really fun to hear, if you could give away one book to anybody, what would it be?
4) Lastly, your comment on this post automatically enters you into this contest. So if you are not interested in winning a Bible atlas, please hold your comments until after the winner is selected. This will help us as we randomly select our winners. Thank you so much!
That’s all ladies! We’ll keep comments open for 24 hours and close the giveaway at 4:00 EST Thursday afternoon.
Also, like I’ve stated before, Australia is 16 hours ahead of Houston time, so when Beth and Amanda wake up it’ll be time to start the second conference. I know for a fact Beth and the team would covet each of your prayers as they labor with joy to teach God’s Word and share His gospel with this next group of ladies. If you’ve been following them on twitter, it’s been obvious that God has blessed their time there. In fact, I saw that they got to feed kangaroos. How fun is that? I’m with you, though, I can’t wait to hear and read all about it upon their return. Let’s pray they end strong in Jesus name!
Alright, ladies, time to hear from you! Be sure to check back Friday morning as I reveal our winners!
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

I would giveaway Beloved Disciple. Jesus reached me so astoundingly through it that it changed me forever. Love above all!
I would give away a book called “The Secret Things of God” by Dr. Henry Cloud. I got it as a freebie in the mail from Joyce Meyer and loved it so much I bought a few more copies to give away. I also LOVE my Life Application Study Bible. Might be a toss up between the two. 🙂
I would give the power of a praying wife….great book!!
I would give away the book “Heaven Is For Real”
I don’t have a favorite book, but I would give away Women of the Bible — I am currently working in it and its very enjoyable!
Happy Spring,
Susan Trongard
There are so many wonderful books out there that have helped and encouraged me through different seasons of life, yet if I could only choose one, it would have to be The Bible since it is truly alive and has a message of hope for everyone no matter where they find themselves.
Blessings to you ladies at Living Proof !
Jean Grant
Jesus Calling devotional !
Adria Miles
The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel
His Needs Her Needs by William Harley Jr…saved my marriage 16 years ago:)
I am reading 7 by Jen Hatmaker right now so I’ll go with that. I have lots of books I love!
Deborah Flora
I’m not just saying this because it’s your book BUT I would give every single woman on this earth – So Long Insecurity. Life changing. I have recommended it to so many of my friends (and wish I could give it anonymously to a few others). Thank you for being true, open & honest with us so we can do the same.
CASSIE NORMAN
Hands down, it would be an Amplified Bible. I LOVE the living, powerful, sword-sharp Word, and I love words. Period! Amplified edition is over-the-top filled and running over with them! I can’t get enough! I would prayerfully, excitedly and enthusiastically give one to the nearest person my Lord directed me to…Oh yes! It would be the leather bound edition with a lime green/fuschia pink copy-exactly like the one I have beside me on the table.
If I could give away one book it would have to be a book that I was required to read for a bible class that I had taken called “grasping God’s Word” and it teaches you how to study the bible! I had no idea how to really dig into God’s Word and “study” It in a life changing way. I would recommend it to everyone because it helps you build a foundation in how to really study the Word from commentaries, ancient histories and building bridges for our lives today. This book helped me see that I could study God’s Word for myself in the same way my pastor or group leaders do and the Holy Spirit has been moving and shaking not only me but my family because we have a better understanding! God’s Word is sharper than any two edges sword, we gotta understand It!
Thanks! 🙂
I love to give away “Doorposts” by Timothy Botts. It is a collection of bible verses written in expressive calligraphy. It is beautiful!
Tracy Drake
Fort Mill, SC
This look like a great atlas. What book would I give away. Well of course the Bible but I would also give away “Heaven Is Real”. I loved that book! I would also give away the pioneer woman’s first cookbook. That had some great recipes in it! Lol! God bless y’all!
I would give away a set of Little House books, by Laura Ingalls Wilder. :o)
Rebecca Brammer
JESUS CALLING! Someone graciously gave it to me after having my son. Love it!
alicia phillips
Next to my BIBLE(!), the book I enjoy most is “Hymns for the Family of GOD”! I love singing and praising, and directing girlfriends into the profound treasures of doctrinal truth found in the glorious songs the older generation grew and thrived on! 🙂
So many to choose from…Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer is a classic. Another good one for parents of teens is When Your Teen is Struggling by Mark Gregston. I’ve never had an Atlas, but would love one. God has been so good to me lately, I might feel guilty if I win…but I will try hard not to! Prayers going up! 😉
Such a hard choice to only pick ONE book! My first choice would be a copy of God’s Word, but I would also like to share either the Sisters of the Quilt series or Ada’s House Series by Cindy Woodsmall. Just discovered this Christian fiction author last summer, and I am now hooked!
Hi! I’m Malory Holmes and would LOVE to win!!!
Oh WOW! I love to read and have tons of books. One of the most recent I have read and would give away would be “Heaven is for Real” by Todd Burpo. A little boys astounding story of his trip to Heaven and back. I loved it and it gave me goosebumps as I read it…..especially the part about the painting of Jesus!!
Our Sunday morning ladies Bible class just finished the study of Esther. It was wonderful! Thank you Beth.
I can totally get lost in a Bible atlas. 😉 Fascinating!
The book I would give away, actually I have a couple. Anyway, they are Nice Girls Don’t Change the World by Lynne Hybles and Girls Like Us: Fighting for a World Where Girls are Not for Sale by Rachel Lloyd. I was just thinking about this very thing. How many copies of these books I should buy, so I have them on hand. Great reads. 🙂 More purple should read both of them. Very moving.
I love maps! I love to travel and the next best thing to actually being there is going there on an atlas!
Just gave away the book Signs of Life by David Jeremiah to a dear friend who recently started preaching. It’s one that I’ll read over and over, But one of my favorite things to give is a Bible Dictionary. Sure would love that Atlas!!!!! -Melany Stevens
Hinds’ Feet on High Places by Hannah Hurnard
I would give away the Lord of the Rings trilogy for the simple fact I have exactly zero girlfriends who enjoy talking about Middle Earth or who catch my obscure illustrations when teaching.
Lisa McKay
The one book I would give away is the bible study on Daniel by Beth. It is the first bible study I ever did and it changed my life. I view the Bible differently than before, more real and more alive. Thank you for this give away. Rebecca Trowbridge.
Paula Williamson…..
I would give a Bible to everyone I know so that they could all come to know and love Jesus Christ, our Savior. I would so love a Bible Atlas because I always have to look up places on the Internet if my study Bible doesn’t have a map.
Carla Sutherland
Tuesday’s with Morrie would be a book I would share
My name is Cristi Welch. One thing I really love is my husband! He in fact would love this Bible Atlas! So pick me pick me!!! :))
I would give away my precious little blue Bible I’ve used so much in my walk through cancer. It’s marked up and worn but it’s precious to me
Megan
I would give away the Bible, my first one was “The Journey–The Study Bible for Spiritual Seekers” NIV.
Megan Goetz
If I could give away one book right now I would say Breaking Free. It has been the catalyst for some amazing rebirth in my life.
I would love to win this Bible Atlas not only for myself but my husband as well! It would be a great birthday present for him. My choice of book to give away would be the Daniel study…I did this study when my life was turned upside down. I love how God knows what we need at the right times. This study helped me stay focused on God and how He is there no matter what!
Be blessed,
Lisa
Any book by David Platt. He is revolutionary!
Heather Smith 🙂
Thank you for doing these give-aways… How fun!
And I have NO idea what the one book would be… aside from the obvious. 🙂
Presently, I would give away the book “Havah”(the story of Eve) by Tosca Lee.
Siesta love and prayers,
Angel Hirsch
I would give “So Long Insecurity”, to my best friend, to my mother, to any woman who would take it. It’s about time someone talked about this issue that is rampant among women. The book rocked my world, slowly at first, but I hope and pray the ripples keep getting bigger and stronger.
If I were to win one of the atlas’ I would give / donate it to Spanish River Christian School in Boca Raton, Florida, we hold our Beth Moore bible study in the library where it would be available for all the ladies to reference! Thank you,
Donna Prakas, [email protected]“
I would give one to my friend Barbara – a true mentor for me.
The Joy of Fearing God by Jerry Bridges
Beverly Toney
Of course there is no greater book to give than the Bible. I would definitely give “Our Covenant God” by Kay Arthur. Covenant so important to understand.
Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers
Lauren Parker
I can’t pick a book! I guess I will just go with the Bible. 🙂 A study Bible that has good notes in it is such a blessing!
I would give away Bonhoeffer; Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy by Eric Metaxas.
Life changing!
Ann Ludeke
Lisa Tackett
The two books I have given away the most and will continue to give away are Calm My Anxious Heart by Linda Dillow and A Love Worth Giving by Max Lucado.
A Holman Bible Atlas!! Woweee! I would LOVE to have one of those. I know it sounds geeky — but oh my! (I just started teaching Precept Bible Studies and this would be a treasure to have.)
I would give Kay Arthur’s International Inductive Study Bible to a new believer. It’s a fabulous way to learn how to study God’s precious Word.
Lori Willey
“The Family Blessing” by Rolf Garborg
It transforms a home and its children. Love it! I give it as a wedding gift and a baby shower gift.
Oh for sure I would give a Chinese translation NIV to one of my co-workers in China. This is fun — thanks LPM girls!
