Another Book Giveaway!



As promised I am giving away two copies of my book Man, Woman, and Deity this week. Writing this book was a labor of love that took five years of research. I learned so much! It is difficult for me to describe the book in a few words. It is about men and women and their eternal roles. It is about why God has ordained marriage and the eternal significance of the marital relationship but in a way that is interesting to single people as well as married. In other words, it isn't a marriage book but more a theory of marriage book. It explains why family is the foundation of all else in the gospel of Jesus Christ. So if you are interested in any of those discussions, you will be interested in Man, Woman, and Deity.

The contest will work the same as last week's contest. If you want to enter, simply leave a comment after this entry. The contest will go until Friday at midnight. Saturday I will number the entries, randomly draw two out, and announce the winner.

Thanks for all the kind comments last week. It makes writing this blog a lot more fun when I hear from you!

You were my Book of Mormon teacher my freshman year. I remember one of our lessons about marriage and the roles of men and women particularly. I loved it so much I went home and showed the slides to my family and tried to give them the lesson. I was married to my sweetheart on August 21st and I have loved seeing those eternal principles play out in our life. And when we discuss those things, I often find myself drawing on what I learned in your class. I would LOVE to have a copy of your book and learn more from you, but mostly I just wanted to take this chance to say thank you!

I attended your presentation at a relief society meeting last night and it was tremendous. I would LOVE a copy of your book! I am so glad to find out about you! :) And look forward to following your blog from now on.

Sherrie, your words are so inspiring. They have been resonating in my mind ever since I heard them at Women’s Conference and at our West Bountiful 7th ward RS activity. They have replaced the painful stories I found I was telling myself. Thank you for that very visual outline of the differences between this Telestial World’s necessary pain and my self-inflicted unnecessary pain. I also loved your description of anchoring myself when I start feeling that anxious darkness envelop me. I commit to center myself in truth and avoid the Pit of Illusion!

Please sign me up as an entry for your book. I’m an avid reader and love uplifting books to fill my mind with truths that I can draw on when I need them.

Enter me in your giveaway! I would love to read this book.

I attended a talk by you last night and loved it. I had heard all of the principles that you mentioned last night, but not fleshed out the way you fleshed them out and not supported by scripture. But it is the Holy Ghost that witnesses of truth anyway. I was divorced a few years ago and have been on a path of growth. I feel that Heavenly Father sends me each piece of truth day by day as I follow what He teaches me. Yes, I would love a copy of your book!

Cathy said...
