I wasn’t going to release this until publication day of Live Not By Lies (next Tuesday), but it occurs to me that some of you potential readers might be wondering about whether or not it’s a book you’ll want to study with your church or other faith group. My publisher Sentinel has given me permission to post this link to the Study Guide in advance. It’s free and available to anybody. Here’s the preface:

Take a look at the Study Guide, which goes chapter by chapter, asking creative questions that should prompt discussion and action. When you go to church (or synagogue — it’s a book for Christians, but all religious traditionalists should read this) this weekend, talk to your pastor or others about the book, and whether or not it’s something that you all want to read together.

Here’s a link to pre-ordering a copy from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major retailers.

If you’d like a signed copy, pre-order from Eighth Day Books; they’re handling signed pre-ordered copies exclusively. They won’t ship till September 29. You’ll probably get it quicker if you order from one of the big guys, but if you get it from Eighth Day, not only will you have a bookplate with my chicken scratch inside, but you’ll be supporting a small independent bookseller that happens to be one of the best places on earth (see what The New York Times wrote about it a few years back). I’m not kidding — people who make it to Wichita to visit the actual bookstore often cannot believe that a bookstore as excellent as this one exists at all, anywhere. It’s like asking the Inklings what their ideal bookstore would be like, except it’s not on the Cherwell, but on the Kansas plain.

Additionally, let me urge you to sign up for one or both of these online Zoom events next week:

Here’s the sign-up link for the J.D. Vance event. And this:

(Don’t worry, I’m going to re-post the link to the Study Guide next week.)
