We're STILL talking about these books!


Without a doubt there is a set of books that has sparked more conversations in our home than any other:

For Women Only
For Men Only
For Young Women Only
For Young Men Only

It started a few years ago when I heard the buzz on For Women Only by Shaunti Feldhahn . I picked up the book and was so impressed that I ordered For Men Only, followed recently by the other two books for young men/women. The amazing thing is that our family is STILL talking about these books. In fact, yesterday my 14-year-old son read For Young Men Only in one day! (If a book can replace video games it's worth checking out.)

Then, our exchange student came home from a field trip with For Women Only in her hands! She too was talking about all she'd learned in the first 50 pages.

All that to say, these are great books worth checking out. And if you're interested in a FREE set that includes For Women Only and For Men Only leave a comment on this blog post! I'll draw a winner Tuesday Feb. 3rd.

Ok, you convinced me. :) I checked these books out, and if I don't win them (I'm keeping my fingers crossed!) I will go out and by them. Thanks for a great recommendation.

I have read "For Women Only" way back when, but it was good stuff! I've recommended it frequently and would love to have the other books to go along with it. Thanks for the give-away!

We did a study of the book For Parents Only at our church with parents of teens. The book was amazing, and people actually wanted to take the course again. I haven't read any of the other, so I'd love to be included in the drawing.

What things from the books do you discuss as a family?

Thanks for sharing!

Okay... Thanks to your tweet, I'm game to win these books. I've often seen them on the shelf at the bookstore, but didn't purchase. I think these could make the rounds in my "young adult" family too. Thanks for the chance to win, Tricia.

Tricia, even if I dont win I think I need to pick these up for the wife and I.

Thanks for the chance to win.

I'd love to win these and read them. My husband and children could all benefit. I'd need to regift the girl one though, but my niece could use it!

Nick said...

Ok, I was twitter-guilted (if that's not an offical phrase, it should be!) into entering :) I'd love to win...

Tricia,

Thank you for a chance to win these books. It always intrigues
me to get an item that could make interesting conversation with the family at the dinner table.

Thank you,

ok Tricia! you've sparked my curiousity. Enter me in the drawing. I'm loving reading your status updates on Facebook. Between those, reading your Spanish civil war trilogy and "Generation NeXt Parenting" I feel like I really know you without meeting. Have your Generation NeXt marriage too but haven't started it yet! :-)
