Giveaway: Backsliding Into Jesus & There’s No Such Thing As Dragons

This is only open to those with a USA mailing address. There is absolutely no cost to enter.

This is your chance to receive a new copy of Jennifer Brewer‘s new book, Backsliding Into Jesus: Finding Hope After Legalism AND There’s No Such Thing As Dragons: Examining The Theology of The United Pentecostal Church by Jonah McElhaney.

Jonah’s book covers aspects of the United Pentecostal Church such as Oneness, uncut hair for women, holiness standards, and their teachings on salvation. Jennifer’s  book “explores the feelings and emotions one will inevitably face when leaving legalism and discovering the freedom of God’s grace.”

Jennifer Brewer, author of Free: From Legalism to Grace Breaking Out of the United Pentecostal Church, had this to say about There’s No Such Thing As Dragons:

After spending most of his life in the United Pentecostal Church the author examines the theology of the UPCI. By drawing on his own experiences and examining the teachings of Scripture with the teachings of the UPCI, the author shows that the imaginary dragons that were placed in his life to prevent him from venturing out too far away from the doctrines were not real. The hope is for others who see the issues within the United Pentecostal Church but have been too afraid to question or examine the theology that they too will see that there’s no such thing as dragons.

One reviewer of Backsliding Into Jesus wrote:

This book was just as good as Jennifer’s first book. She has a way to speak so openly about her road and her life after the UPCI. One of my favorite lines from the book is “Freedom in Christ means more than just getting to wear what we want….” I can’t tell you how many times I have heard that myself. I have actually been asked is walking away from God to wear what you want and cut your hair worth it. I was NEVER walking away from God, I was walking away from a belief system that was not fulfilling me. It was not feeding me, it was harming my family, and we wanted to be free from that. Thank you Jennifer for taking a stand and helping those that are looking for a way to their own freedom, Not freedom from God but Freedom from legalism.

  1. Please enter my name into the giveaway. I would really like to read these books.

  2. I am 70 years old. Was raised Pentecostal from 3 weeks old. I just recently realized that the times that I was ” backslid”, I was taught that by people that didn’t realize that His grace is sufficient..and there is absolutely No human being is without sin. The whole time I was “Backslid” I would pray, speak in tongues, and watch God do things that I considered miracles. I just wonder how many people are ” convicted” of things that have been taught them from babies, simply because it was the only way to keep us ” in line” ….beards…not there…jewelry..not there. I am so looking forward to reading these books. Thank you
