Giveaway: Perspectives by Colin Creel

I'm excited to announce that I will be hosting my first giveaway today!

I have decided that I would like to start a new giveaway "series" called "Pass It On Books."  After reading good Christian Books or other kinds of literature, I always want to share my reading experiences with other people.  As much as I love books, I don't find that they do much good sitting on my bookshelf after I have read them - why not let someone else enjoy and benefit from them?  So these giveaways will feature gently used books (still in great condition) that I hope the winner will pass on to someone else once they are done reading it.

I love finding new Christian books that speak out to me as if I was talking to a friend.  I've tried a lot of the daily devotion type books in the past and honestly, usually by the next day I forget what the devotion was even about.  A few years ago, I read Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller and I was blown away by his writing style and thoughts on Christian life.  It felt like I was talking to a good friend and having a long conversation about a wide variety of topics.  I've also noticed that I like studying God's Word by topic, not so much by verse.

There are so many decisions we have to make in our 20's - spiritual, physical, and mental.    It's easy to want to rush through life and try to have everything all worked out and accomplished during these years.  I don't think anyone can truly be prepared for going out into a big world for the first time.  But it doesn't hurt to gain some advice that will help you out during these times and I'm so glad that I was able to find Colin's book and gain some valuable information and perspectives on life and God.

I found Perspectives: A Spiritual Life Guide for Twentysomethings by Colin Creel at a Christian bookstore about a year ago and just recently read the book.  It's organized into 30 different chapters, each with a different topic.  Some titles include "How Do You Handle Adversity?" and "Any Room Left in Your Margins?" and "How Do You Define Sucess?"  Each chapter has Points to Ponder at the very end to help you reflect on application to your own life.  One of my favorite parts of the book were from the  "Seasond Advice" section in each chapter.  The author has guest writers who have moved beyond their twenties talk about their past experiences regarding each topic.
