Get a semi-free copy of Scott Klusendorf's _The Case for Life_ from the publisher, Crossway.
I say "semi-free," because you must fiill out a survey and agree to get weekly emails from Crossway (but that's not necessarily bad--I received this offer in an email from them) in order to receive it. However, the book is the full, unabridged, 256-ish page edition whose Kindle mobi version is $9.99. And with this freebie you get your choice of mobi, and/or ePub, and/or PDF versions. My only beef with the offer is that the survey will take probably 15 minutes or more if you give truthful, thoughtful answers. But remember that this book would cost (what I would consider) quite a bit of money to buy it. Oh, and this book is highly rated, at Amazon at least. https://us1.campaign-archive.com/?u=...f&e=23cead9d70. Last edited by GtrsRGr8; 01-16-2018 at 04:35 PM. |

I assembled a complete (or nearly so) set of Warren Wiersbe's "Be" series by buying individual volumes when they were heavily marked down. Given the hugh markdowns on volumes of the new _Expositor's Bible Commentary_ now, I'm wondering if that might be the way to start accumulating a set of them.
This new _Expositor's_ is considered a revision of the first one, which was under the general editorship of Frank E. Gaebelein. The first volume of that set was published in 1979. This newest _Expositor's_ is under the general editorship of the well known and highly revered Biblical scholars Tremper Longman III and David E. Garland. Most, if not all, of the volumes of the new set are marked down, at the present time, at Amazon. Most of the volumes are $5.99, a handful are $6.99, but two are actually only $2.99 each. The two $2.99 volumes cover some of the Old Testament's "Minor Prophets." The entire Old Testament set is currently $150.47 at Amazon, making each volume an average of just under $19. You don't have to be a math wiz to see how much that you could save under the current sale. The sale is scheduled to end the 21st day of this month. Here are links to the two $2.99 volumes: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01N5Y1RDX/. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MYE76PD. Last edited by GtrsRGr8; 01-16-2018 at 04:31 PM. |

These are both ePub's (DRM Protected), as all of Christianbook's ebooks are, as far as I know. Christianbook "always" has made it difficult to find their ebook daily specials as browser pages on their website (I receive notifications of these specials in email messages each day), IMHO. Today is no exception. Let me give you the direct links to the volumes that are $2.99 each: https://www.christianbook.com/hosea-...906/pd/90911EB. https://www.christianbook.com/jonah-...968/pd/90913EB.

One good thing to come out of my unsuccessful search for Christianbooks.com's _browser_ page of ebook daily deals is that I re-discovered their webpage of _free_ ebooks. I had quit checking it several years ago, because the selection doesn't change much from day to day.
Here's a list of some more-substantive free nonfiction ebooks at Christianbook that some of you may be interested in. Alternatively, you may wish to go directly to the landing webpage and start exploring on your own. That webpage is https://www.christianbook.com/page/e...=Free%20ebooks. Ankberg & Weldon, _Jesus the Messiah_. _ESV Global Study Bible_. _ESV Classic Study Bible_. Hamilton, _Love to Stay: Sex, Grace, and Commitment_. Wiersbe, _Be Distinct [2 Chronicles, 2 Kings]_. _HCSB: Navigating the Horizons in Bible Translations_. _Holy Bible: New Testament: New Life_. [Caution: I know nothing about this book. If it is a _paraphrase_ rather than a _translation_, it is easy for the writer(s) to slip in his/her _intrepretation_ of a text, rather than to give an actual translation, G]. Maddox, Sam, Paralysis Resource Guide [Medically-Related Information]. Enjoy. Last edited by GtrsRGr8; 01-17-2018 at 11:13 AM. |

I assume that the two titles for which you gave the Amazon links, above, are the titles that are free only this week? |

When I went to the following address, BAR said that I would receive a "free gift" for signing up. I have no idea what that could be on top of all of the free books that you can get, but I'm curious . . . . In case you have signed up in the past, and maybe even downloaded one or more ebooks, be aware that the list of ebooks is not static--BAR adds new ebooks (and perhaps takes away some) from time to time. https://www.biblicalarchaeology.org/free-ebooks/. |

Very possibly the best deal of "Christian Interest" at GooglePlay Books, if you received the $5 off deal from them (see the separate thread about the deal):
Walton, John H.--_The Essential Bible Companion_. Price at GooglePlay--$5.99. After $5.00 off--$0.99. Very highly rated at Amazon and Goodreads. |
