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!
If I could give away a book to anyone I would probably give one to my really sweet friend, Joy, because she loves books as much as I do!!
Forgot to leave my name: Letha Mahan
Oh, how fun! A Bible atlas! pick me! pick me, please! If I had one to give away, I’d give it to my brother-in-law, a pastor, and his wife, my sister.
I love reading your blog – just recently found it! I love books and would love to receive the Bible Atlas.
I would love to have this Holman Bible Atlas Thank you for this generous give away. I love to give away “Jesus Calling” Every day it seems the Lord is speaking directly to me so I love to give it to women I am praying for.
If I could give away any book it would be Seasons of a Mother’s Heart by Sally Clarkson. It meets me right where I am at as a stay-at-home (and homeschooling) Mom. I highly recommend this book to EVERY Mom.
Missy Speir
Thank you for the opportunity to win this book! God Bless!
Lindsey Deitch – McKinney, TX
One Thousand Gifts – When I read it, I couldn’t wait to finish it so I could read it again.
I might give away Disappointment with God by Philips Yancey…or just about anything by him.
I would give away “Made to Crave” or one of my Bibles. Reading my Bible has changed my life…
Also, I LOVE reading maps… and can hardly imagine receiving a bible atlas. Oh my gosh, what a treat!!!
Thanks for all that you ladies do for us!!!
My name is Joy Brown.
I’m guessing you’re asking what book other than God’s Word would I give away, and it would be “Moments with the Savior” by Ken Gire.
Blessings to you.
Wow! What a great give-away! Thank you LP Ministries for your generosity in sharing the very best Bible Resources with your community.
I just love Bible history and understanding the whole story behind the “Life and Times” of our Biblical forefathers. Don’t you all agree it makes scripture study a much more tangible love letter from our Father and creator?
There are several books I often share but in this moment, I would give (& have given) “Lioness Arise” by Lisa Bevere – As women, we affect generations and have the power by the anointing of Christ to change generations. Like a lioness, we live in the light but hunt in the dark because there is keen sight through the darkness (God’s light cuts through all darkness.) We must remain aware of the enemy as he hunts us and not risk tranquilization. We must not be tranquilized because too many people hang in the balance of our danger in being FULLY AWAKE.
Missy Speir
I would give away “Get Out of that Pit” because, other than the Bible (duh!), it’s the only book that has truly changed my life!
Kisses from Katie by Katie Davis. I have already given away several copies. It is such a beautiful story of Gods love and provision.
I would love a atlas because i dont have one! Blessings to all of you!!
Rebecca Saiz
I would give Esparanza Rising. It is a young reader and I think everyone should read this touching book about a migrant child worker.
I knew right away what book I would reccommend and that is 31 Days of Praise Enjoying God Anew by: Ruth Myers and Warren Myers!! This book is a daily devotional and I so appreciate it!!! It daily inspires you to praise even when you don’t feel like there is anything worth praising.
April Lopez
I would have to say a Study Bible.
Tammy Victor
Di Easler
The book I would give away is Francine River’s, Redeeming Love, and I would give to a special sister who needs to be set free.
Thanks!! Praying for Beth-
Pick me – I never win anything! I’d give away a Bible if I could to anyone – most important book there is! 🙂

For anyone who hasn’t tried Scentsy yet – visit my website and look at the beautiful warmers that are available now for Spring/Summer at https://jmschof.scentsy.us.
Lawan Rivera, if I could give away one book I think it would be Christian Atheist by Craig Groschel. Awesome book.
Kara Snider
The one book I’d love to give to someone is ‘one thousand gifts’ by Ann VosKamp… along with a blank journal!
I would probably choose Mary Beth Chapman’s book Choosing to See. That book has been such a blessing to me and so many others that I know.
Hello Everyone,
As soon as I read the post I knew exactly what book I would reccommend. 31 Days of Praise Enjoying God A new by Ruth Myers with Warren Myers.
This book inspires me daily to praise God through the good and the painful trials in life. When I don’t feel I have anything to praise God for this book always directs me to something new every morning 🙂
April Lopez
Sandi Hanson – I would give the book “A Confident Heart”
An atlas would be so great. If I were to give away one book? That is so hard because I could include so many. The Jesus Chronicles by Tim LaHaye & Jerry Jenkins, Any of Greg Laurie books, The “Stranger…” series by David Gregory, Sandi Patty’s books, Liz Curtis Higgs books. But my all time favorite book I have read 4 times is “Love Is Like An Acorn” by Matsu Crawford. The lessons in love are outstanding. God bless you all!
First of all I would like to thank Beth for allowing God to use you to minister his Word!I started took my first Beth Moore Bible study about 13 yrs ago,each and every study are like gifts straight from Jesus! Words can not express the joy and fulfillment that comes from the treasures of Gods Word being revealed and stored within me forever!!! My greatest desire is that all would fall in love with His Word! If I had only one book to give away (other than the Bible)it would be The Purpose Driven LIfe!Because I believe it is anointed,to save the lost and guild the saved.
Shalyn Hamlin – I would give away “When Heaven Invades Earth” by Bill Johnson!
Sue Gibbs – “A Shepherd Looks at the 23rd Psalm” by Phillip Keller. It’s been around for years, but I just got around to reading it and the insights have been rich.
Jenny Potter
I would give away Supernatural Childbirth because it so different than what the world insist that childbirth is and the book teaches us to let God have the whole process and trust HIM to do awesome things while bring a child into this world.
Amy Botello; I would give “So Long Insecurity” because it helped me start the process of overcoming the insecurities I have allowed to trapped me over my life.
Laura McKinney
I would give away “The Fitting Room” by Kelly Minter.
I think I would give away Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers or Safely Home by Randy Alcorn… both books were really interesting and made me think about things, but are also books I could share with believers or non-believers that I think would drag them in. Thanks for doing this giveaway.
My name is Megan Gaddis and I’m a bookaholic 🙂
Would give There really is a Heaven.
Beth Koops
I’m reading a wonderful book right now on having a heart of gratitude that I would definitely pass on to someone. It’s called One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are by Ann Voskamp.
I really love to read, so I have a new favorite book every few months. However, this very week I am planning to give a book to a sweet college friend I recently got together with. Its called This Momentary Marriage by John Piper. I’ve given it to several couples as wedding presents and even told my husband (who is a youth pastor) that he should read it because I KNOW he would love to use it next time he does marriage counseling. It is a great book on a Biblical, eternal view of marriage…and its not just for married people. The friend I’m sending it to is still single!
It’s funny how God works sometimes; I remembered Beth talking about this and was just looking at an atlas on Amazon just the other day.
Which book I would give away is tough; I’m trying to decide between two, and they are really different.
The first would be Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, because it’s just a lovely read whether you’re new to the faith or you’ve been sitting in a pew (or a chair) all your life. The other is Stuff Christians Like by Jon Acuff, because really, we cannot take ourselves too seriously, and he is dead spot on so often it probably ought to make me more uncomfortable.
Thanks for all you all do for us Siestas, even the ones who don’t comment as often.
Kelly Olsakovsky
I would give away “One Thousand Gifts” by Ann Voskamp.
Wahooo!!!
Dis girl wants an atlas!
🙂
Jenna Berthoud
(curious…do you have to put 1st and last name “in” the comment or does it count with it just in your name spot)
My name is Lauren Parham 🙂 If I could give away a book to someone I would choose “Crazy Love” by Francis Chan.. bc for me coupled with God’s Word I think when we understand how MUCH God loves us that’s when we see some incredible change in our lives! This book illustrates that so well! Lol that makes be want to go get that a gift for someone now! 🙂
Kim Olin
I would give the Bible! Thanks for the giveaway fun!
Stephanie Armstrong
Hi! Oh I am so happy to jumped on this blog today! My name is Susie Widloe and if I could give THIS book away to my dear friend who introduced me to this blog it would be Nicole Romanov-Nazar. As a matter of fact that’s why I am posting right now. She collects bibles and would absolutely be thrilled to receive this! Fingers crossed–I hope I win it for her!
If I could give away any book–right now it would be “Be Mature” by Warren W. Wiersbe because I am in the middle of the James bible study and it’s all about James–awesome!
I would give away Safely Home by Randy Alcorn.
Melody Argueta
If I could give one book away it would be Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus, by Lois Tverberg. This book has ennamored me, and made me more aware of who Jesus was, in his Jewish culuture, when he walked this earth. Such a good book, recommend it to all!
I would give Ann Voskamp’s, “One Thousand Gifts” book to everyone I could; God has used this book to work on many things in my life- being more thankful is the biggest one. -Katie Reid
I would probably give some kind of study guide or commentary away. Something that would encourage that person to study God’s word and get them excited about it. Studying with Ms. Beth has been a joy and I have learned so much. I am studying the book of Daniel right now with her. Wow! God’s word is amazingly thrilling!
So excited . . . hope I’m not too late!
Rachel Temple
How exciting!! Would love to have a Bible Atlas in our home.
Other than God’s word, I would give away “One in a Million: Journey to Your Promised Land” By: Priscilla Shirer
My copy is highligheted & earmarked…Life Changing!!
For teen girls, I would giveaway “The Princess Within” by Amber Gallagher. It is life-changing for each girl!! I have seen it with my own eyes as Amber has been a wonderful example for teen girls.
