Lysa TerKeurst _{Leading Women in the Adventure of Faith}

Thank you for your hanging in there with me these past 3 days of sharing Jackson’s story. And thank you for you sharing your stories with me. You better believe I will be praying for those of you who tenderly shared in the comments your stories of everything from kindergarten send offs, to college send offs, to homeschooling, to traditional schooling and all in between.

Several of you even shared how you live close by Union University. How cool. So, if any of you happen to bump into my sweet Jackson this week tell him these three very profound words: CALL YOUR MAMA.

I heard through the sister grapevine, he’s lost his cell phone.

So, those sweet little prayer texts I’ve been sending are just floating around in the cellular world. And I’m trying not to cross that line between mothering and smothering. I’ve only sent two texts and tried to call once. I think this is good. You know what I’m saying? Just a little something back that simply says, “I’m still alive,” would be nice.

But, I’m not thinking it would be cool to call the school and have someone track him down to deliver my message.

I’m thinking of something entirely more subtle. Like buying a billboard near the school cafeteria and plastering it with: “Jackson T… YOUR MAMA WANTS YOU TO CALL HER.” Or maybe a flyby plane with the message banner trailing behind it. Or maybe a sign toting man that parachutes into next athletic event. Totally clever I think.

Anyhow.

Speaking of communicating with your people, I thought it would be fun to communicate with you a little bit this weekend. Will you take just a moment to leave a comment by clicking on the word ‘comments’ below and following the prompts.

Here’s what I’d like to know:

1. My book, Made to Crave- satisfying life’s deepest desires with God not food, is set to release in late December. This is not a diet book.

It’s a spiritual and mental motivation book that’s the perfect companion to any healthy eating plan you choose. I truly believe it will be the missing link between a woman’s desire to get healthy and finally finding lasting victory.

So, if I host this Bible study live on my blog in January for six weeks would you be interested in joining along?

2. Do you have some friends you’d be willing to invite to join us as well?

3. Where would you most likely buy the book from… amazon, the Proverbs 31 site, CBD, a Christian bookstore, or a general bookstore?

Thanks for taking time to give me this information. As a thank you, every person that leaves a comment today will be entered to win the first available copies of this book. I’ll be giving the first 10 copies hot off the press to 10 of you!!!

Your input is that valuable! It’s a daunting task to write a book. But an even more daunting task to know how to market your book.

Almost as daunting as figuring out how to get your son to call you from college. Smiles.
