This month I’m giving away a free copy of “God’s Smuggler” by Brother Andrew. I was planning to give away another copy of “Do Hard Things” but they were out at the bookstore. Anyway, “God’s Smuggler” is the autobiographical account of Brother Andrew, founder of Open Doors International, who smuggled Bibles into Communist countries during the Cold War. I referenced another version of the book in the 12 Briquettes for the Barbecue of Missions series a couple weeks ago.

Here’s how it will work. Between now and midnight tomorrow (Tuesday, June 3 Central Standard Time), send an e-mail to thefoolsgoldblog@gmail.com. In the e-mail, include your name, the name and address of your blog (if you have one), what you do during the day, and the title of one of your favorite books. I will then randomly select an entry, and e-mail the winner to ask for his or her mailing address. The winner will be announced sometime on Wednesday, June 4.

From the back of the book:

“Told it was impossible to minister behind the Iron Curtain, Andrew knew that nothing was too hard for God. Crossing ‘closed’ borders, he prayed, ‘Lord, in my luggage I have Scripture I want to take to Your children. When you were on earth, You made blind eyes see. Now, I pray, make seeing eyes blind. Do not let the guards see those things You do not want them to see.’ And they never did.”
