The Safely Home giveaway is now closed! Please check back March 7 for next month's giveaway.
Note from Randy: Stephanie Hallman, who works with our ministry, put together the following and will be in charge of the monthly book giveaway. My only suggestion was to change from a one book giveaway to three, since I love to give away books. (It’s easy for me since I‘m not the one who ships them, I just sign them!). So, here’s Steph:
We’re excited to announce that beginning this month of February, Randy’s blog will feature a book giveaway of the month! Each month three winners will receive a brand new, signed copy of one of Randy’s books.
The deadline to enter is Friday, February 22, and 3 winners will be randomly drawn on Monday, February 25. Entering for your chance to win is as simple as leaving a comment on this post. Only one entry per person, please. If you don’t have a blog, be sure to leave your e-mail address so we can contact you if your name is drawn. However, if you would prefer to not post your e-mail address, check the comments section on February 25 to find out if you were a winner! This month’s giveaway is the novel Safely Home: Is this the day I die?
Li Quan's father had taught him from childhood to ask this question every day. He told young Quan, "one day the answer will be yes, and on that day you must be ready."
Quan stiffened at the shout behind him. The voice rang with the authority of the Gong An Ju, the Public Security Bureau.
"You meet in the night like the criminals you are. How dare you defy the law? In three minutes," Scarbrow said matter-of-factly, "we will shoot every man and woman—and child—who does not declare himself loyal to the people rather than the gweilos, foreign devils.”
Quan, Ming and Shen clasped each other's hands. Quan breathed deeply and braced himself.
"Surely this is the day."
American business executive Ben Fielding has no idea what his brilliant old college roommate is facing in China. After 20 years he expects to pick up where they left off. But when they're reunited in China, the men are shocked at what they discover about each other. The paths they've walked have shaped their lives and loyalties in radically different ways.
Thrown together in an hour of encroaching darkness, watched by unseen eyes, both must make choices that will determine not only the destinies of two men, but two families, two nations...and two worlds.
It’s a powerful story that will give you greater awareness of the persecuted church. Many people write to tell us they were profoundly affected by the message of this book. Safely Home is also available for purchase through the EPM website, and 100% of the royalties go to help persecuted Christians and to spread the gospel in their countries.
Check back each month for your chance to win another of Randy’s books! And be sure to check out Randy’s post “Longing for Joy” from earlier this week.
God bless you,
Stephanie Hallman

I would LOVE to read this book. Enjoy reading your blog. Your book Heaven has changed my life and I praise God for it everyday. Thank you!
This book sounds interesting even from the little excerpt.
Please enter me in the Safely Home giveaway. I read this book twice last year and cried both times. I bought five copies and gave them all away as gifts. I would love to have my own signed copy of this book. ~ oillady@charter.net
I very much appreciate Randy's ministry and would like to be included in the drawing for a copy of "Safely Home". Thank you!
While I already own a first edition hardcover, I would love to have Randy's autograph. This book had a profound influence on our family's decision to adopt from China. Please consider me for the drawing.
We sent this book with my brother-in-law who is studying overseas and will spend the fall in China.
I would love another copy!

I already own the book (and have enjoyed reading it several times), so please don't put me down in the contest (unless it's been translated into Russian, in which case I have lots of people I'd like to give it to as a gift).
I'm mostly just writing to say that I appreciate your writing, both your books and blog. I always figured that I would just tell you that in heaven, but since I know how nice it is to have messages like that on occasion in this lifetime, I decided to post it. Thanks for all the effort that goes into your work; I sincerely appreciate it and have been changed by it.
Ooooh I'd love to give this a go :) Thanks for the contests!

This book sounds very exciting! How neat of you to have a giveaway! I enjoy your blog very much, as well as all your books. I am always impatient for the next one. I am hoping that one day you will expand a Native American's character to show how they adapt and change the powwow ritual songs and animal worship when they become Christians. Thanks for all your hard work.
Safely Home is my all-time favorite novel! It's message is challenging and life-changing.
I have borrowed my copy to so many others that I've lost track of it.
I read this book about a year before taking a trip with the JAMES FUND to China. This is a powerful book that I have sold to many people over the years of being in Christian Retail.
Whoever wins this book is going to be blessed!! This is by far my all time favorite book. I was so moved, it shook me to the core. What a great idea!
Greetings! Count me in!
nickpastor[at]gmail[dot]com
Great timing. I've been wanting to read your work since I found this blog. Actually, before that. Then I found your blog, and I've been waiting for the extra cash to come in to get this very book. Course there are others. We have one book of yours floating around our place. On purity. Someone gave it to us a while back when we had an issue in our marriage with a past sexual sin.
Great idea!
Me! me! Pick MEEEEE! :-D
Your books are wonderful and Safely Home was incredible - borrowed it from the public library and would love to own a copy.
Would love to read another one of your books. Please enter me into the giveaway. thanks so much!

Safely Home is my all-time favorite fiction book. I plan on rereading it soon. The copy I have has a broken spine and the pages are stained with my tears! Thanks so much for your ministry! God bless you.
My husband and I have enjoyed reading Deadline and Edge of Eternity. I also read and have been spurred on by Why Pro-life. In fact, that's how I came across your blog (by doing a search on Amazon).
Anyway, I have learned much from your blog and your books!
Grace to you,
Kia

Please enter my name for the giveaway. A friend has been reading this book and raved about it to me. Thank you! I've had my name on the list at our local library for Heaven for a long time. Hopefully, soon I'll be able to read that one.
I've never read a randy alcorn book I didn't like (in fact, I gave all 3 of my kids one of his books for Christmas) so I would love to win a copy of this one. thanks, rose

Well, I'd have to say that if I win, I'd like to receive one of your earlier novels on abortion. I gave it away many years ago and want to re-read it. It was excellent. Bless you all.
In Christ,

I'd love to have your book on abortion. I read it and gave it away many years ago.....I'd like to re-read it.
Bless you.
BJ Johnston
Thanks for your testimony!
as a fellow oregonian it really is my duty to throw my hat in the ring.
i've heard good things about this book from friends!
Found this blog through googling Randy Alcorn - I'd just read one of his books (Dominion) and was so excited about finding an interesting writer I wanted to know more about him. WELL - now I know more and want to know more. Please do enter me in the possibility of a book - our household reads and like to talk about our books. Thank you so much - y'all bless us big time!
Just popping through from a notice about your giveaway at Christian Women Online.
It's my first time at your blog, but I'd love to win one!
Dear Randy,
Safely Home is my absolute favorite book of all time. It really impacted my life when I read it in college. In fact, it was really weird when I read it because I had a professional/business mentor while I was in college, who I could have sworn you had based the book on. He was just like your main character; who had lost a child and turned from his faith. I think even his wife's name was similar to the name of your character's wife's name. To top it all off, my mentor was an American businessman who did a lot of business in CHINA!!! It was really amazing. My mentor was hurting because of the loss of his son. I took my meager college funds and bought him a copy of this book because it reminded me so much of his life. Did you know this guy?
I can't say that I know what happened or if he read your book but I can say that your book impacted my life and probably his. I am looking forward to reading your book on Heaven. (Wish I could win a copy of that!!)
Thank you for writing such inspirational books. I always tell me people you are my favorite author and that Safely Home is my favorite book. I also liked the Ishbane Conspiracy. May God bless you and your family! I look forward to meeting you in heaven someday!!
Blessings,
Julie
I love Randy's material, his book the Treasure Principal is classic. Please enter me in the drawing!
Count me in!!
This is the most awesome book! I've read it and re-read it. We are so unworthy of our brothers and sisters in chains.
Whoever gets this free book is receiving a treasure beyond words.
I'd like to enter.
Thanks and God bless.
gausling@unlv.nevada.edu
If my good friend Diane recommends it, then I know it's got to be good. ;)
May God send many blessings Randy's way with all the great books that he has written. He has blessed me & some friends with his writings very much.
Keep up the good work, Randy. I'm praying for you.
Kathy Bodnar, Brick, N.J
I read this book 2 1/2 years ago after you gave it away at the first Good Shepherd College Group I was invited to by a friend. That was a pivotal time in my life and read this book really opened my eyes to start thinking about Christianity in a broader context, outside of America.
I loved Safely Home, loaned it to several people (all of whom cried). It gave me a deep awareness of the persecuted church and forever changed my concept of Heaven. (If I win it, I'll pass it on!)
I would love to receive this book! Thanks!
Linda

I would so enjoy having this book. Please enter me into the drawing. Thank you and may God continue to bless this ministry.
I am just learning about the persecuted church. I had no idea our brothers and sisters were suffering in such ways around the world.
I would believe it an honor to read the book and then place it in our church library to share.
I really enjoy your blog.
thank you!
It's in my Amazon cart :) but I would love to get it for free - and signed, to boot!
Thanks for the opportunity!
I've read Safely Home and given it as a gift. I've also read some of your non-fiction. Treasure Principle was life changing. BUT, I'm now reading Dominion. My goodness!! Where in the world do you get all this insight!!! On race relations and other issues. It is tremendous. I'm an African American pastor's wife whose husband pastors a wonderfully multi-cultural church body. The book is doing an excellent job presenting both sides. Saying in words what I and others feel. And your insight into Heaven is breathtaking. Truly God given. "Dani" has C. S. Lewis "tutoring" her. I'll probably get you. (Considering you go first :) Be blessed!!
I'm looking forward to reading your book.
I would love to have my email address added to the book give away. I've been reading all of your books and am really enjoying them. I have read deadline and dominion and have just received Deception which Im currently reading. I also have read the Ishbane Conspiracy. Im building up quite the library. Please add my name to the drawing!
God Bless you all,

Safely Home was the first book by Randy that I read and it really was life changing. I have no longer ever thought of the people of China the same. In fact I have had far more compassion for the current day martyrs than ever before. Randy is a phenomenal writer and I recommend his books every chance I get. Thank you Randy for following the Lord's guidance and sharing with us.
Just an FYI for everyone - I read that February 11-17, 2008 is Random Acts of Kindness Week. We could make a difference in the lives of many.
I'd love to check out your book. Thanks.
Randy Alcorn is one of my favorite fiction writers!!
Randy,
I've been a fan for years...probably given away about 6 copies of Deadline. Thanks or the give away! I'll be waiting! :-)
God Bless

Ooooh, count me in! Safely Home is one of my top 5 fiction books EVER.

I've read Safely Home, Heaven and several of your novels about heaven. I've been moved by each experience. I feel a little closer 'home' with each book. Thank you for showing us this eternal perspective.
Velma Martin, South Texas
I am currently reading "Deadline" and am planning to read Randy's other Fiction Books. I read "Heaven" twice and was reading it for the third time when my Niece asked me if she could read it. I have bought two copies, my Brother is reading one, and now my Niece has the other one. Recently my Sister asked to read it, because she said she could tell how much more peaceful I am now, and how much it changed my life. I will read it again and again, when I get one of them back. If not I will buy another one.
Randy has truly been gifted of God in His understanding of Scripture and then the communication of that understanding. By reading his books and re-searching the Scriptures, I have learned so much more of what God has told us. It is wonderful to have the layers of Scripture peeled away just as we would peel an onion...we often cry and, at the least, are in greater recognition of its meanings. Thank you for sharing your gift and your insight...whether I win a book or not!
Hi EPM,
I'm currently reading Deadline and have read virtually all of Randy's books since a friend recommended Heaven. (PUN intended)Actually, "Safely Home" is next on the hitlist, so a signed copy would be great! After reading Heaven I have read 7 other books from 5 different authors pertaining to Heaven. But Heaven and Deception are by far my favorites!
In His Grip,
Brian
brian.thornton819@gmail.com
I would love a copy of this book!
I have enjoyed others that you have written and was even at The Cove a few years ago for your seminar on Heaven!
I am now a volunteer at a Pregnancy Resource Center in my area and even ordered copies of your book WHY PRO LIFE for my whole class when we were in training.
May God continue to bless your ministry!

OOOh a contest for Safely Home! How fun.. thanks for letting me enter.
Margaret G.
Everyone should read ALL of Randy's books! In fact, but extras and take them on trips, and give them away as "tips" to your flight attendants and pilots, the Rental Car folks, etc.! Deadline and Dominion are two of my favorite novels; and I've been reordering them for years from www.cbd.com for just this purpose! Great witnessing tools! Now we have family in SW China, so Safely Home is especially meaningful! Heaven is THE best book on what our permanent Home is going to be like! I get it out time and again when I get "homesick"! My only question is, when's the NEXT NOVEL COMING!? :) Put some horses in there for those of us who can't wait to see Heaven with our animals!
God bless your ministry!
Romans 12:1-2
A very unwitty post, because I always love free books!
Safely Home has powerfully impacted me in my relationships at work. The "corporate world" can be intimidateing but I am so encouraged by Li Quan's initiative with Ben and am believing God for the softening of hearts in Boston!
I've given this book away twice and I no longer own a copy! Thank you-

I WOULD LIKE TO BE IN THE DRAWING FOR THE BOOK SAFELY HOME. I HAVE READ HEAVEN AND ENJOYED IT SO MUCH. JAMES ELBERT GRIFFIN
I read Deadline a few years ago and knew about EPM, but didn't realize the wealth of resources you have on a number of topics God is drawing me to learn more about. I'm currently reading "Heaven" and have told numerous people about this great book. I am thankful for your ministry.
I have read and re-read a number of your books, and have recommended them to dozens of friends. Would love to have a signed copy of this one that is a favorite. Thanks for the excellent thought-provoking books, articles, and lectures. They are among the few that I can honestly claim have changed my life.
Please enter me in the free drawing.
I admire Randy for all the great insight and saying exactly how it is in the book "Heaven". Now I take every chance that I get I share my faith with someone hurting over the loss they are experiencing, or even long ago, the emptiness is still there and the pain unsettled....I always make a point to explain how God IS alive and 50 years ago had given me a vision of a BEAUTIFUL huge city with walls and gates around it the...BREAT TAKING colors eminating from it.. Not until 50 years later did I not know what this was. I have always been afraid of Revelations, so I had had never read it. It's was a scary book.
The Hospice Chaplain that had come to my home to give my Mother her last rites, I had shared my story with as We were speaking over my comatose Mother especially at this time of sadness still wondering what that was.
He said "I know exactly know what you saw all of these years. He opened his Bible to the last 3 chapters of Revelation...He read to the end.. "WOW, what a gift the Lord had given me, knowing that in my life, I have gone so many things in my life...remembeing my faith and this strange vison of what probably took all but 2 minutes to happen this beautiful revelation I was explained to me just when I needed it most. "IN GOD"S OWN TIME" he opens your eyes and reminds you how he has taken care and watched over you from your birth and it will never end.
Thank you for "Heaven" It is my favorite book and give it as gifts all the time. It gave meaning to the direction for my life and gave me the answers that I beleive God wants me to have.
God's peace.
Joanne
I just finished Safely Home for the second time. I would love to have a copy to loan to others!
Thank you!
Janelle jrlhsm@gmail.com
Mr. Alcorn, I would just like to say that your writing has touched me deeply, causing me to truly attempt to keep an eternal perspective...
Not since I devoured everything I could find that C.S. Lewis had to offer have I been so affected and intrigued by a Christian writer. You make me feel as though I really will be able to cast my crown at the foot of Jesus (the Carpenter); you make me yearn to leave the Shadowlands and experience what I was born to, from the moment of conception. It is so comforting to know that I have brothers and sisters in Christ celebrating my coming arrival up there, watching over me and cheering me on when I triumph over the father of lies (with help from you-know-Who, of course!).
Something I would like to share with you is that I am participating in 40 Days for Life here in Spokane, traveling each Saturday to stand outside the abortion clinic and pray, stand vigil, and hopefully touch some hurting person's heart before she falls prey to a quick fix which she will most likely regret for the rest of her life. And I thought you might like to know, that along with the literature I have with me to hand out and refer to, I have a dogeared copy of Why Pro-Life? which you sent me several months ago and I've practically memorized. I find it an extremely handy reference to point out reasons why the pro-choice side is so deluded, and why when one truly examines their heart and their heads, there is no other choice but to save the life of the innocents.
Sorry this was so long... I would be so honored to receive yet another of your fantastic books to add to my collection. I almost have them all now, and look forward to further writings. You are an inspiration to us all- thank you for using your spiritual gift from the Lord to touch others.
I have never read this book. It sounds wonderful. My favorite book is "Deadline". I have shared it with many friends. We are a military family overseas and it amazes me how many people I run into that also love your books. Thank you for being such a blessing.

Safely Home is the first book I read by Randy Alcorn. It is a wonderful book that helps to remind me that no one is too far for Christ to reach and redeem.

I read this book several years ago. I was very disciplined and borrowed this book from the library. It would make a great addition to your library. I really felt like this book helped me to really strengthen my faith. We also have friends in China and I now know what they face. Thanks.
I would love to read another of your books==the last one I read was"Deception" and I have "Heaven" to get into--but it's heavy--though I was trying to read it right after my husband died--that may have made it a little heavier than usual!.

Thanks for the wonderful blog! It has been a great encouragement.

I enjoyed your blog! So glad I found it thru CWO.
Love your blog - please enete rme in the drawing.
Thanks Randy for sharing your gift with the world.....
I would appreciate being included in your February drawing for Safely Home. I read a friend's copy in 2006 and would love to include it in my home library to read again and to loan to others. I read between 80-100 books a year and Safely Home is high on my list of favorites.
I would love to win these books! They look fascinating - pick me pick me!!
I read Safely Home after we began our process of adoption for a Chinese daughter. I bawled like a baby. Reading this has caused me to pray more urgently for the church in China and for the parents of our would-be daughter. This is a must read! I'd love to read it again. Our copy was lent to someone. It would be awesome to receive a signed copy.
What a fantastic giveaway! I'd love to be entered in the drawing to win one.
I LOVE it that Chuck Norris links to EPM.
I want a book so I can be safe from Chuck Norris...well not really...
This is one of my most favorite books by Randy. If I am so lucky as to win a book I shall look forward to passing it on to just the right person.
Having read Randy's book "Heaven" and "Fifty Days of Heaven" - I would love to read his fiction work. I bought Safley Home and gave it a friend - he has read through and really grown in Christ. I look forward to being able to read it one day soon myself.

This site is so refreshing. Thank you for the insight.
Please I would like to be entered in the Safely Home giveaway.
I Read Safely Home several years ago. Wow! It opened my eyes to the persecuted church. Gave it away to share it's message ... and it was given to someone else, etc. Also read Lord F's Letter, Ishbane Consp. Dateline, Dominion, & Deception. The Treausure Principle and Heaven. Given all away. Keep 'em comming.
Mr. Alcorn (Or whomever reads this),
I have recently read C. S. Lewis' "Screwtape Letters", which I found extremely interesting. I find the ideas and views expressed by Lewis very insightful and knowledgeable. I was looking for more books by Lewis when what should I happen to stumble upon but "Lord Foulgrin's Letters". I am nearly halfway through that, and am finding it nearly as enjoyable as the "Screwtape Letters". I find the creativeness involved in writing it very unique. not only have I seen some points that Lewis brought up explained in more detail, but I also find that the way it was related to "Screwtape Letters" very interesting. I like a sense of continuity in what I read. that is why I find myself drawn increasingly into Christian styles of reading. one book leads to another, and another, and so forth and so forth. After touring this "blog", whatever that is, I saw the drawing for your book "Safely Home". I would much like a copy so as to delve into it more thoroughly. Please enter me into this drawing. I do not usually win things, but when I do, I am pleasantly surprised. I have left my E-mail address, for contact should I win. I shall keep reading and understanding, as well as enjoying your very informational books.
Sincerely,
Joshua A Rogers

Can't wait to read this one! I think I have almost all of Randy's books so far ... Thank you for challenging us to think about the deeper reality through your writings.
I loved Safely Home, it brings tears to my eyes. My blog is
www.onlyonelife4jesus.wordpress.com
Powerful book that broadens the reader's prespective beyond the boundaries of our safe Western culture, and beyond the limits of earth-history.

We have a daughter adopted from China. When we travelled there to get her we were told not to take Bibles. The machine gun armed soldiers are visible throughout all the big cities. We saw first hand how trapped and controlled the Chinese people are. Mr. Alcorn's book "Safely Home" will help more people realize the truth of this situation.
Mr. Alcorn is one of the best fiction writers in any market. I loved the Deadline, Dominion, Deception series and his nonfiction book Heaven is outstanding. I do look forward to more.
bigggeddd@hotmail.com
Randy,
Our family is so blessed by all of your writings. It is also very refreshing to know that you, as a leader and disciple-maker, are progressing in your sanctification. Thank you.
I have been blessed by Randy's writings for a long time now, and always make a point of sharing and recommending his work/books.
Safely Home is a special book to me, as I have some very close, dear friends from mainland China, some of whom are Christian, others on the road to making that decision. I would like to be considered for one of Safely Home books to share with them.

I am busy reading Voice of the Martyrs's book "Jesus freaks", about actual life stories of persecuted Christians. Safely home should be a wonderful edition. Keep well.
I would like to be entered in the contest please. Thank you...
The first book I read by Mr. Alcorn was Deadline. I reread it out loud for my husband(loved it!) Then I found Safely Home in, of all places, the public library of the very liberal town I call home. Again we read it aloud and were sooo very blessed by it. It was truely eye opening. I think EPM is the finest and most balanced ministy I've ever come across and Randy is among the best writers, fiction, or nonfiction. Thank-you.
Sylvia
Safely Home has been a "High impact" book in my life. I have recommended it to countless people. You really need to read it if you haven't already!!
I would love to be entered into the drawing. I have read some of your other works, but never one of your fiction books. This would be a great opportunity for me to do so.
Safely Home is my favorite book to give away. I have had more people come back and tell me they're on fire for the Lord after reading this book. I love it too; it's so powerful and should be read by every Christian. Oh yea, Randy Alcorn's other books are really good too!
Safely Home is one book I have given away over and over! Reading it changes your life! Thanks Randy, for listening to God so clearly and sharing His truths so eloquently!

I have read several of your books, Randy, but have not yet read Safely Home. So, I hope I win it, and will you sign it for me?
Thanks, Tabowers@comcast.net
Please enter me in your drawing this month. I just found this website last week and have read and read and read it. There's so many interesting articles and ideas and concepts. Thanks to Randy Alcorn for all he does to further the Kingdom.

I would love to read this book!
Safely Home is one of our favorites. Gave it to my brother as he was going to China on a business trip. We have recommended it to many people. Often suggest it at our church library. Would be honored to have a signed copy. We enjoy all of your books. Heaven was eye opening. Deadline was the BEST1
This book has made such an impact on how I view, cherish, and tell others of my freedom in Christ. Please continue to write more books like this!

Found you via Meyers on the Hood blog. I've not yet read one of your books, but have one in my personal 'library' at home waiting to be read, along with hundreds of others :)!
I love your books and have passed a many of them to my friends. You have a gift from God and you have blessed many with your words.
Deadline was the last book I read from Randy. It was quite riveting and I was compelled to keep on reading until I was finished. Should read more of these!!!
A great book!

Hello Randy and all your misinstry workers. I have read almost all of your books, posted your links in many places, including His Holy Space, My Space and several blogs that I have.
I have been a Long time fan of your's and have given church's your books in libraries I donated, and also hurting people in the congregations I have been involved in. What a witnessing tool your site, blog and books are as is your daughters books and comments.
I have sent many people to you and pray many more will follow as your ministry is truly a gift.
Watching you on TBN a few years ago was a treat as well.
Thank you for all you do, know your materials are in more hands than mine even if I recieve them.
God bless you,
Pauline ("Sugar" on My Space, Holiday Angel on our Charity site Heavenly Angels in Need)
An amazing book. You will be blessed by reading it and your eyes will be opened to some amazing truths.
Thank you for having your books available for MP3's--and unabridged! Hooray! I've listened to Deadline, Dominion, and Lord Foulgrin's Letters. All of them were a tremendous blessing to me. Your book Heaven has opened up amazing visions of what life will be like with Jesus and all my brothers and sisters in Him. Thank you for your ministry--all your hard work. May God encourage your heart daily in His grace and love. Please enter me in the book drawing.

What a blessing your ministry and testimony have been to me. Thank you for your submission to the will and Word of God.
Please add my name in the drawing, sounds very interesting!
I'm reading Heaven for the 2nd time--it's fascinating. Please enter me in the book give away contest.
Safely Home is one of my favorite books; it tells the reality of our brothers and sisters in China. Thank you, Randy!

I just finished Deception this morning. What a great book - I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you for the books you've written.
i love your books and have wanted to read this one so please enter me! thank you!
I have heard about this book & have loved Randy Alcorn for years. He was such a comfort to our family when both my husband & my dad died within five months in 2006.
Keep up the good work Randy!
Sally Ferguson
This is an excellent book!
I've been reading "Money, Possessions, and Eternity" with our bible study group and have witnessed lives changed because of it. I would love to read "Safely Home", or any of your books for that matter. Thank you for loving the Lord.

I feel so blessed to have found your books, especially "Heaven". I have only read your non-fiction books, but look forward to reading your fiction books also.
May God richly bless you as you have blessed others.

Safely Home changed my view of the world and all that happens in third world countries. Everytime I pick up something that says MADE IN CHINA...I feel tears thinking about the Christians who are in the prisons creating things we buy and take for granted. Bless you for writing the book and opening our eyes. I am doing a Book Discussion Group with Safely Home. Would love to offer the signed copy to one of the members of the Discussion Group.

Dear Randy,
Thank you so much for this book. My wife and I adopted a 7 year old girl from China last year and we have a great love for the Chinese people. I have been to China two separate occasions and while the Chinese people were wonderful, I was saddened when I think of how lost they are without Jesus. I'm glad our Lord can break through any national barriers.
Your fellow servant,
Brett Humphrey
I was one of the many people who wrote you an email after reading Safely Home. I cried my way through and it truly is a book I want to read over and over again, something which I have never done before. Thank you, Randy, for ALL you do.

A book giveaway...what a great idea!! I love the way you weave a story together and encourage us to think more deeply. I give the Lord praise for you and your ministry.
Thank you!

This book was increadible...I was touched. The more people who become aware of the persecuted Church the more will be praying for them, Lord willing! I truly appreciate what you are doing for the Kingdom through your ministry. May God bless you greatly!
Thanks so much for using your gifts of writing to bless the rest of us so much. I've read all 3 of the "D" books, the first 2 many times, and come away every time with more of a sense of excitement for what we have to look forward to in heaven. I've also read "Safely Home" but have given my copies away and would LOVE another one. What a powerful book. Really opened my eyes to what's NOT in the news. Thanks again.
We very much enjoy the blog, newsletters and books. Your ministry has definitely changed me from a this-world-focus to a Heaven focus. Thank you! And I just received your Heaven for children picture book -- absolutely beautiful.

Hi there, Steph. :)
I've heard good things about this book & would like to read it.
I also wanted you to know that I use a quote of yours nearly every day that I go to witness at the abortion clinic.It helps us point to the truth about adoption. The quote is:
"There is no such thing as an unwanted child, only unwanting adults."
Keep writing, my wife and I love your books. Safely Home is one of the best I've read in some time. Deeply moving and powerful, we read this and passed on to our daughter to read and pass on. Your writing and love for the Lord is a wonderful ministry
I love this book and will be teaching it to 12 Home school students in a lit coop. I am very excited to see what God will do in the lives of these students. Thanks for writing this book.
I loved your book 'Heaven' and look forward to reading 'Safely Home'.

I would love to win an autographed copy of Safely Home for a dear friend of mine since I already have a copy. I have read it and read everything you write. Randy, you are definitely my favorite author. Please keep 'em coming.
I would love to win an autographed copy of Safely Home for a dear friend of mine. We share a music ministry and both enjoy reading all your books. I already own a copy of Safely Home as well as almost all of your books. I read all the Randy Alcorn books I can find. You have painted a picture of Heaven through your books that has given me a more "eternal perspective". Thanks for using your gifts for His glory,

This book is beautiful and effective. I met Randy at the Desiring God Conference. It is wonderful to read books by God's servants, but it is a far greater joy to worship with them as a fellow servant of Our Living God.

Your books have been a huge help in my spiritual walk. Would love to read this one.
I am reading Safely Home now and find it very interesting. A relative of mine adopted a child from China. She and her husband are both devout Christians. What a blessing for this child.
Safely Home is a life-changing book. I have a copy ordered now for a friend and I would LOVE to have a signed copy.
When is Mr. Alcorn's next book coming out?
I love this book and especially the subject it covers. It helped me a lot with understanding my senior paper topic, The Persecuted Church of China. Thanks so much for the chance!
Safely home is the most riveting book I have ever read. Thank you for writing something that turns my heart away from the things of this world and focuses it on the most important things of heaven. We are living in China now and experiencing the reality of this book in many ways.
Your books are great. I loved Safely Home. Thanks for all the hard work you and your staff do.

Loved Safely Home and all of the books I have read. Right in the middle of Deception and loving it.
Thank you for blessing my life.
God bless,

I would love a copy of this book. I can relate to the issues raised in it because I have Christian friends in India and countries that can't be mentioned here.
Thank you for highlighting the suffering of Gods people in areas of the world that we in the West tend to forget about or ignore.
My favorite part of "Safely Home" was, of course, the homecoming. When Mr. Alcorn writes about heaven you know you are reading divine inspiration and except for the Word of God no one has ever equalled it.
Linda Meeks
My husband and are planning to buy a lot of these books over the next year to give away to friends and family members. We are reading it now, a little night by night before going to sleep, and it is transforming our prayer life together. Thank you so much for your ministry!

I have read most of Mr. Alcorn's books. Dominion and Deadline are my favorites. I listened to Safely Home on audio tape and want to read the book. If I'm not one of the lucky winners, I will purchase for my Alcorn Collection.
