The Reason for this Giveaway
This giveaway is sponsored by Founders Press. I will be attending the Founders’ Ministries–Midwest Conference on February 23-24, 2010, in St. Peters, MO. I am excited about this year’s theme, Pastoral Ministry: Shepherding God’s Flock. The conference topic was conceived from a blog post in which Dr. Van Neste interviewed Dr. Thornbury. You can read that interview here.
Speakers include
- Rev. Joseph Braden, pastor, First Baptist Church, St. Peters
- Dr. John Thornbury, author and pastor (retired) of Winfield Baptist Church, Union County, PA.
- Dr. Tom Ascol, author, pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Cape Coral, FL, and Director of Founders’ Ministries
- Dr. Ray Van Neste, Director of the R.C. Ryan Center for Biblical Studies and Instructor of Christian Studies at Union University, and serves as an elder at Cornerstone Community Church in Jackson, TN.
How to Enter

This week’s winner was Dwayne Ewers of Louisville, Ky. He has served as a pastor in rural Kentucky and is currently employed by the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Congratulations, Dwayne.
We are mulling over the idea of reading Pilgrim’s Progress as a group and having some discussions on the Christian Book Notes Facebook fan page. If anyone is interested in participating, please become a fan and let us know. We are looking for at least 10 people to commit to reading Pilgrim’s Progress together beginning sometime in February.
Okay, the four “P” thing just happened. Anyway, this week’s Winsday giveaway is going to be for three items all dealing with the Pilgrim’s Progress. All three will be given away as one prize.
The first item is the newest edition of Pilgrim’s Progress published by Crossway Books and edited by C.J. Lovik. You can read my review of this edition here.
- Second, we are including a print from Christian
CommunicationsWorldwide entitled The Narrow and the Wide Gates. The print is signed by the artist, Caffy Whitney. She has done the illustrations for many books as well as various murals and faux finishes among other works.
- The final piece to our giveaway is the DVD Journey to Heaven from DRC Films. While some may take issue with the fact that many things had to be edited from the book in order to adapt it to a movie, this Journey to Heaven is easily the best Pilgrim’s Progress movie available. We bought a copy a year ago and my children (5 and under) love it!

How to Win
Simply leave a comment below explaining how John Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress has ministered to you or what you think of his allegory. If you have never read the book, just say that (and maybe something you have heard about the book) and that will be your entry.
As always, you can Tweet for a second entry. Just copy/paste the following as your Twitter status update: RT @ChristBookNotes is giving away an amazing Pilgrim’s Progress Prize Package. Check it out! http://wp.me/pviKd-RW
