Now…for the good stuff!  What do you win?

One of our vendors at Victory Church Products (where I still work two days a week) graciously agreed to sponsor this post, because they believe in Bible study too!  B&H Publishing (you probably know them better by their sister company, Lifeway) has donated two items for this prize package:

The HCSB Study Bible for Women ($59.99 value!)

The Devotional for Women ($19.99 value!)

The Study Bible for Women equips you to reach deep into God’s Word. Perhaps the single most powerful aspect of this Bible are the "threads" of specialized study thoughtfully woven throughout, pointing you to God’s larger story and allowing the Holy Spirit to write His revealed truths on your heart.  In The Study Bible for Women, you’ll join a host of other women, all academically trained in the original languages of the Bible and passionate about God’s Word, for an intimately deep dive into Scripture that will equip you to unlock the riches and majesty of His Word, and ignite a passion to mentor others in your life to do the same.

Features Include:  Extensive commentary notes, word studies, answers to hard questions, doctrinal notes, biblical womanhood articles, character profiles, "Written on My Heart" applications, extensive book introductions, in-text maps, charts & timelines, full-color maps section, concordance, ribbon marker, silver page edges, and 8-point text size.  The Bible measures 9.50" x 6.50" x 1.50" and features a classic smoke and slate Leathertouch^TM cover.

The Devotional for Women:  Whereas many daily devotionals offer encouragement for the heart, The Devotional for Women offers that encouragement as well as biblical exposition, all in a user-friendly, quick-read format to change lives in the everyday rhythm of life. A unique feature of this devotional is the opportunity to journal your personal reflections at the end of each day's reading. Soft leatherflex binding with a coordinating colored ribbon marker.  The book measures 7” x 5” x 1.98”, with 768 pages of devotions from every book of the Bible, starting with Genesis on Day 1 and ending with Revelation on Day 366.

I’m excited to see which one my readers will soon be enjoying these two items!  Thank you for helping me share God’s Word and hopefully encourage many others to passionately pursuing knowing God through the study of it.

I declare this contest officially open!
