First-time ever Biblical novels giveaway – June 2023

First-time ever Biblical novels giveaway – June 2023

As I am now publishing Old-Testament-era novels, I have also been reading lots of authors who write Biblical novels. I have chosen some of my favourite authors in the genre/favourite books and offer two books from each author.

There will be fourteen prizewinners because ten will choose two books, and the remaining four will choose one book.

Please read the instructions below as in every giveaway there have been prizewinners who don’t answer their email and the prizes go to others. This usually happens because the prizewinner did not CONFIRM their entry.

How to enter

1. Answer the question – this ensures real people are entering! Please answer the question in the multiple-choice drop-down section within the giveaway app NOT in the comments below the post.

2. You will then be asked for your FIRST name and email address.

3. CONFIRM YOUR ENTRY!!!! Search for email and confirm entry (check your ‘spam’/’junk’ folders). *** Entrants keep forgetting this step and so don’t see the email telling them they’re a winner.

4. INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. Click back to the giveaway and see 28 ways to gain additional entries and your LUCKY URL to share and gain even more entries. When you click on the ‘follow X on BB’ – you actually have to go to the link and then click ‘follow’ i.e. the giveaway app doesn’t do the task for you!

The way I have chosen to run these giveaways is quite different from most giveaways. Firstly, you can choose what you sign up for and are not automatically subscribed to each author’s newsletter. Secondly, prize winners do not ‘scoop the pool.’ Instead, there are multiple prizewinners who have, so far, always received a book of their choice. That is, the first winner gets the first choice (of two books) … until all the books are distributed. We hope that way to spread joy and allow winners to have a book that they are keen to read and not one they’ve already read.

  1. It would be such an incredible blessing if I were to win this! As a one income family and me homeschooling 3, there isn’t a lot of extra money for my interests.

    1. I hope you have a good library nearby. If you take the title/author/print ISBN – you should be able to recommend print books. Recommending ebooks/audio is slightly different but the library will explain how.

    1. I will resend the confirmations. Did you check your promotions folder? – gmail has three mailboxes – primary/promotions/social.

  3. What encouragement this is during these days of Noah. I’m an English teacher and, when I’m at home recuperating from the chaos, books soothe me and the right ones with Biblical values give me hope for our kids today.

  4. This is awesome! I’ve read several of these author’s books and am immersing myself in Biblical fiction.

  5. Would love to win. I really enjoy print copies. Each book looks good and so intriguing! Thank you so much for the opportunity to enter in a wonderful giveaway! God bless!

    1. We don’t usually offer any print books because we want these giveaways to be international (there are a LOT that are only for US readers). However, we have a few authors in this who need to offer print (because they’re traditionally published) but it will only be to prizewinners in US or UK.

  6. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway contest of Biblical fiction. This is by far my favorite genre of Christian fiction, and I love hearing about new Biblical fiction authors!

  7. I have not yet received a confirmation email after 15+ minutes of entering. I checked my inbox, refreshed my inbox, checked my spam folder. Could you please resend it? Thanks!

    1. resending to all those who are unconfirmed. it is a lot of you. It is possible that your email provider blocks it. Perhaps write a note in your diary to be really alert to emails from me on 3 July.

  8. I so enjoy reading biblical fiction! The books open my eyes to new things and the history added in is so interesting! I’m now reading the TPT The Passionate Translation. They have so much history right in there! Like Rev. 7, the names of the tribes and what they mean! And how they weren’t begun all at once our walk with Jesus doesn’t either.

  9. I am looking to grow our home library with biblical stories for my children to learn from and fall in love with the tellings!

    1. Wonderful. This is a wonderful genre IF authors are careful with the Biblical source materials. I’ve chosen books that are.

  10. As a new Biblical Fiction author, published for the first time last year, I’m really looking forward to connecting with some of you through this giveaway. Thanks so much Christine for the honour of being involved. I hope whoever wins The Wanderer Scorned will love it and be blessed!

  11. I really enjoy Biblical stories. I have read some of the authors books and get deeply involved with the characters. Often reading them more than once.

  12. Thanks for the contest!!! Might I suggest doing one with minority Christian writers as well.
    Thanks

    1. I do giveaways with those that write in the two genres that I write in. I’m happy to have any authors in it IF I’ve read and liked their books. I usually pick the actual books in the giveaway because I want my readers to know that I recommend them.
