Teaser Tuesdays (March 24)

March 24, 2009

teasertuesdays3TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:

  • Grab your current read.
    Let the book fall open to a random page.
    Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
    You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

    Please avoid spoilers!

My Two Teasers:

“Rather [Satan's] trying to change our view of God, to get us to bow the knee to a god that is not there. If he can poison our idea of God by tempting us to project our view of our parents or of churchgoers or of our own self-designed spirituality on God, then he succeeds.” 

~ p.86, “Apologetics for a New Generation” by Sean McDowell

PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your 2 ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks! D

  24. The Missing by Tim Gautreaux

    Three Sentences:
    page 18

    The next morning at daybreak, a lean, sandy-haired man rode up on his mule to help his brother put in seed cane. Claude found them all and sat down on the one standing chair and bawled, looking at the forms on the floor and holding out a hand to each, crying out again and then hearing a miniature echo of his grief begin to rise out of the stove. He opened the door and saw the baby furry with ash, its face black but for the lightning strikes of its tears.

  49. This is going to be my new favorite thing! I can’t wait until Tues.

  50. My belated post can be found !

  51. Ahm, sorry, my belated post can be found here!

  52. It takes me nearly a week to work through reading all the Teasers but boy! do I come up with some great finds! I put them aside and then search for reviews over the next few weeks to then decide if I am going to add the title to my reading list. So from here on in I am going to post a link to my ‘find of the week’ teaser as well as my own new teaser on my website every Tuesday. Teaser Tuesdays is a brilliant idea!

Please be patient if your comment doesn't show up right away... I will 'release' it as soon as I can. Thanks for your thoughts! ~MizB
