Well, not really time for one but since Tony Evans is a favorite of both myself and the hubs, I couldn't pass by this opportunity. And since I have a short time frame in which to run this giveaway let's get going.
About Tony Evans
His preaching can be heard on broadcasts airing on over 1,400 radio outlets and in over 130 countries, reaching millions each week.
I just love that his preaching honors the Word of God over the word of man. He has the ability to communicate the profound truths of God's Word through practical teaching and application.

Review
I have to say that I really love this study Bible. I've had been pouring over its contents since I received it from the publisher, thinking that this would be a great study Bible for the hubs. But this is not a study Bible for men only. It is for everyone.
In the Introduction, it says, "This study Bible is based on a simple yet profound biblical worldview: the glory of God through the advancement of His kingdom. This is the unifying theme of scripture from Genesis to Revelation." And with this study Bible Dr. Evans endeavors to "help us study the Scripture with a kingdom mindset, seeking to identify God's rule over every area of our life."
There are some unique features in this Bible that I have not seen in other study Bibles. One such feature is the "Hope Words" placed throughout this Bible. They are such encouraging words to encounter as you are reading through a passage of scripture. They are set apart in a simple but decorative box and say such things as, "Stop focusing on what you can't do. Start focusing on what God can do." This particular one was placed in Pauls' letter to the Ephesians at the end of chapter 3...after his prayer for the Ephesians. Beautiful. Or in John among the verses where Jesus is praying for His disciples, "God calls us to go against the grain when the grain is going against God. Be in the world, not of the world."
Another unique feature is the digital links to video devotionals and teachings from Dr. Evans. They are QR codes that you can scan with your phone or iPad and they take you to the videos. And yes, I have watched a few of the videos and they contain such good scriptural teaching designed to enhance your study experience by helping you dive deeper into a topic or providing encouragement in your study. There are also links to videos that take you to video introductions to each book of the Bible as well as Overview videos of both the Old and New Testament found in the front material, "How to Study the Bible" section. So you not only have the written intro that you would expect in a study Bible, you have video teaching to get you into the study. You will love it!
There are multiple covers available for this cover:
I'm giving away the Black/Brown Leather Touch edition. It's a beautiful cover with feels like butter, soft leather. I'm thinking I will give my personal copy to the hubs and then save up to get the purple cover for myself. I'm not a huge purple color fan, but this one looks to be a lovely lavender.
