Does everyone know what time it is??? Time for Bloggy Giveaways!!

Photobucket


Who doesn't like a new bag and a good book to read?


I will be giving away this bag that I made myself:



It has a nice big pocket inside:


And the handles are long enough to wear it as a shoulder bag!
The colors are fairly neutral, so it will go with practically anything!


In addition to this bag, you will be receiving the book:
Here is the write-up from Desiring God

When I Don't Desire God
How to Fight for Joy


"He has written
many classics, but this is my favorite book by John Piper."
—C.J. Mahaney

For over twenty-five years John Piper has been trumpeting the truth that
“God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him.” He calls it Christian Hedonism. The problem is that many people, after being persuaded, find out that this truth is both liberating and devastating. It’s liberating because it endorses our inborn desire for joy. And it’s devastating because it reveals that we don’t desire God the way we should.

When you discover the biblical truth that God commands our happiness in him, the absolutely urgent question becomes: What can I do if I don’t have it? With the heart of a pastor and with radical passion for the glory of Christ, John Piper wants to help you answer that question.



If you want to enter for this Giveaway...leave a comment. If you don't have a blog, just make sure I have an email address to contact you! I will randomly choose a winner on Friday, February 1st at 8pm!!

Be sure to click on the Bloggy Carnival link, located at the top of the page, to take you to HUNDREDS of more GIVEAWAYS!
