Faith Database (Giveaway!)

Ancient Answers Meet Modern Media

Wow! I just installed Faith Database on my laptop and am I ever impressed!

No more searching dozens of different websites or flipping through my Bibles when I want a specific Church teaching or Scripture quotation. It’s all right here—over 1500 resource books and 10 bible translations are cross referenced for easy, ready research.

Faith Database features early Church writings from Doctors of the Church, books from John Henry Newman and GK Chesterton, Bible maps and art, Thomas a Kempis’ Imitation of Christ, Augustine’s Confessions, John Paul II’s Theology of the Body, a complete Catechism and Code of Canon Law, and lots more.

Anything and everything you could possibly want to know about Catholicism, Church history and teaching, or the Bible is just a few clicks away on Faith Database. A great resource for schools, parishes, and Catholic families of all kinds.

Would you like your very own Faith Database CD? I’ve got four of them to give away.

Leave a comment here with a valid email address (U.S. citizens only please!) to be entered in a random drawing. Entries will be accepted until Friday, August 22 at midnight EDT.

Good luck!

UPDATE: Comments now closed. Winners announced tomorrow!

The question is not, “Do I want to win this?”; the question is “Does God want me to win this?” [falling to my knees] OH, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, USE SOME OF YOUR DIVINE MOJO TO GET ME THIS SWEET DATABASE!!!  How about You and me make a deal—I’ll give up sinning!  I mean, not entirely, but the really BIG sins, like genocide, that I can avoid, no problem.  And I’ll, like, build you a church or something.  Or maybe a shed… you know, like one of those TuffSheds, a place you could hang out when you wanted to get away from the tabernacle for a while.  I can do this!  You just need to score me one of those database CDs!

 
122. Posted by snowshoe on Wednesday, Aug 20, 2008 2:22 AM (EST):
