A guide to everything end times. It was as hilarious as it was insightful. Ever since that day I\u2019ve been a fan of Jason Boyett and his writing.<\/p>\n<p>As I\u2019ve had the chance to get to know Jason over the past year it\u2019s been no surprise to discover that he is just as funny and insightful as his books.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve also learned since that summer day so long ago that Jason has an entire series of <em>Pocket Guides<\/em>, including one on the Bible.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s what this post is about.<\/p>\n<p>The other day Jason posted a pic on his Facebook wall of a huge stack of books he\u2019s having to store in his garage. That\u2019s the picture he posted in the background of the image above.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/jasonboyett.bigcartel.com\/pocket-sized-garage-sale\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">To make a long story short<\/a>, in order to rerelease his<em> Pocket Guide to the Bible<\/em> with a new publisher, Jason had to buy back all the old copies from his old publisher. That\u2019s a lot of books. Seriously.<\/p>\n<p>As it stands today Jason has a little over 1,400 copies of his fantastic book <em>Pocket Guide to the Bible\u00a0<\/em>just sitting in his garage looking for a new home.<\/p>\n<p>Unbeknownst to Jason, at least until he reads this post, some friends of mine and I (<a href=\"http:\/\/networkedblogs.com\/KWJXc\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/joyinthisjourney.com\/2013\/05\/pocket-sized-garage-sale\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/alise-write.com\/community-garage-sale\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/seeprestonblog.com\/blog\/2013\/5\/when-were-doing-good-for-someone-good\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a> and more to come) have decided to help him out. <strong><em>But we need your help<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Over the next 2 weeks (<strong>starting today and going through Monday May 20th<\/strong>) we want to sell all 1,400+ copies of Jason\u2019s books for him so he can finally get his garage cleaned out and start using it as a garage instead of a giant book closet.<\/p>\n<p>Just to be clear, we have no stake in this whatsoever other than trying to help a friend. In other words, we\u2019re not getting any cut of the profits. We just don\u2019t want our friend to keep having to be a literary hoarder.<\/p>\n<p>The best part of this is it means a sweet deal for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/jasonboyett.bigcartel.com\/product\/pocket-guide-to-the-bible\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">The book is only $4 AND Jason will sign personally sign your copy!!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(Yes, we volunteered him without asking.)<\/p>\n<p>The book is fantastic for group study too. So if you\u2019re a pastor, small group leader, or Sunday School teacher we\u2019ve got a sweet deal if you want to buy in bulk. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/jasonboyett.bigcartel.com\/product\/pocket-guide-to-the-bible-case-of-48\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">You can get an entire box of 48 books for only $48<\/a><\/strong>.

That\u2019s less than $1 a book!!<\/p>\n<p>You seriously can\u2019t beat this deal.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s one catch \u2013 <strong>YOU CAN\u2019T BUY THEM ON AMAZON<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, the book is available on Amazon, but it\u2019s the rerelease, not the copies piled up in Jason\u2019s garage. Plus, those copies aren\u2019t signed. But, don\u2019t worry, both versions are exactly the same.<\/p>\n<p>So, help us help our friend.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/jasonboyett.bigcartel.com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">Go to the Big Cartel page we\u2019ve set up and buy a copy<\/a><\/strong> of <em>Pocket Guide to the Bible <\/em>today.
