Hi Kelly! I am also a mom in NWA and have been a follower of your blog since Harper was in the hospital. I worked with friends from your church. I would LOVE to win this book!

This sounds like such a fabulous book! And such an important topic!!
LOVE her!! I would love to win a copy!! I am ready her book Creative Correction right now. Thanks for this!!
How exciting!It's definitely harder to make friendships as an adult, I'm slowly learning. Leaving the constant bombardment of college friendships has been a bit of a culture shock! I'm excited to read this book.
I saw Lisa speak about 4 or 5 years ago! She is an amazing, and VERY funny speaker! What a blessing it would be to win her new book ;o)
This is the first I am hearing of this book and I would love to have it! I have her Christmas book and enjoy it.
I need help in this arena, so this book would be grand.
I have gotten into the season in my life of having the friends that I will have for life and would LOVE to read this book!!!
Oh i would love this book! Hope I win!!
I would love to win this book. In the last few years I have experienced way too many broken friendships. And have good friends how have a lot of friendship drama in their lives. Living overseas at a small military base our pool of potential friends is small and within such a small community many things get said and done and things go sour.
I need something like this in my life right now. I think I could really use the read.
I would love to win this book! I can't wait to hear how the interview goes!
Have fun with the interview! I think Lisa is from Fort Worth - my friend got her autograph at the movie theater in about 1982. Ha!
Would love to win the book!
How exciting!! I would love to read this book!
Pick me :)
Finding & keeping friends as an adult is hard enough but when you throw marriage & children into the picture, it just makes it that much more difficult.
I would love to read this book. I am sure it has great advice.
Great give-away!
I'd love to win!! Good luck Thursday!
I am so excited for you! And I will be so excited for me if I win the book! :-)

Oh I'd love to win, she's such a lovely gal. I love to hear her speak! I got to hear her a few yrs. ago and later as I was looking in the bookstore there she was! loved it! How fun!

I would love to win this book. I too grew up moving a lot - a third culture kid......
Thanks for sharing this book with us, Kelly! Adult friendships can be so challenging, so I would love to hear what she has to say (and win it, of course)!
Oh how neat! I love Lisa! I would love to win this book!
Being a military spouse-I move every 3 years and so I am forever making friends & as my kids are now older and more "on their" own I need to work on my friend making skills by myself. :)
I love anything by Lisa. And I think I'd read a book of yours if you'll just write one!!! Lord knows you have the fan base. :o)
I love her! I saw her book at Barnes and Noble and flipped through it- it looks really good. It's definitley on my must read list. I guess now it's more relevant than ever because as I'm approaching 30 (yikes!), I'm realizing that making friends is not like it was in elementary school and of the importance of true intentional friendships. I would love to win this!
Lisa and I have lots in common -- we are both pastor's wives and homeschooling moms, to mention a few! I would love to win her book. It's about a subject that I would love to learn more about. Looking forward to your interview with her!
I would really love to win this book!!
This looks like a fantastic book - something we could all use during this stage of making friends as "grown ups." Very exciting!!

This book would be so timely for me right now. We moved last November to a new state (1500 miles away from family and friends). I'm realizing just how hard it is to make new friends as an adult! So I would love to win this book, but if I don't I definitely will be purchasing! Thanks for sharing!

I would love to win too, I agree that friendships as adults can be so much more difficult. Thanks for the post and the giveaway!
I really want this! I've struggled with feeling like I haven't been a good friend lately because of my pregnancy and working and going to school full time.

Looks like a great book.....would love to win!
I love my friends so much! I have had dear friends since I was in middle school and we continue to get stretched as we face new seasons of life. Friendships are a treasure and a must!

I would LOVE to read this book! I look forward to reading about your interview! :)
Looks like a great book!
Would love to win, read and then share it with our church library...just getting one started in a new little church.
Friendship has always been a hard thing for me... Looking at my life you wouldn't guess that a lot of the time I feel lonely and have prayed for years about my friendships. I do have wonderful friends but I have always been on the search for the "perfect" BFF.
I would love to win this book, but if I don't I think I am going to have to go buy it for myself. I think it may help me out a lot.
Thanks for the opportunity.
Oh I loved her on The Facts of Life! She had such a great group of friends on that show. Who didn't want to be one of them??
I really believe, at this point in my life, that I could really use the help of this book. I was SO lucky to be a SAHM, but now that all my 'children' are grown up (21, 23 and 26) I've noticed that most of my friends are really just their friends. I really have very few of my own, because I was so devoted to my children as they were growing up. They are my best friends now, but as an almost 50 year old I feel that maybe I should have some friends closer to my age? But I have NO idea how to go about finding some.
I would love to win this book!! I love Lisa and her blog too!! Very interesting topic and one I know I would benefit from reading . . . I'm a pastor's wife too.
Would definitely love to win . . .looks like a great read :)
I would love to win this book! I am a young mother so most of my friends are still single and mostly immature. Its hard making good grown up friends.
I would love to win this!! :)
Hi Kelly,
I LOVE Lisa Welchel too. I read her blog as well and she is such an inspiration, like you. Thanks for the giveaway.
Peggy
I love her writing, insight, and her speaking! I believe that God has truly given her an amazing platform! I hope I win cause $ is kinda tight right now! ;)
So cool you get to talk to Lisa!
And she lives here in Dallas, like I do, but I've never run into her.
I would looooooooooove to read this book! And I need it - it is hard to make friends as a grown-up! Especially in a new town!
I would love to win her book. I read Creative Correction a couple years ago, and loved it. I can't wait to read another one of her books!
Kelly, I would love to win this book as I feel I am going through a difficult time in my life friendship wise. I am the only one of my girlfriends that now have a child and it is definitely a transition period.
How Exciting for you!! I have always admired Lisa and like you I was a huge fan of hers when she was on Facts of Life! I would love this book!! Good luck with your interview with her!
Sheri Fuhrman

Great giveaway! Love to read and this book definately looks like a good read.
OH!!!! I love Lisa! She spoke at our church and I had the honor of leading worship. She will never know the impact of her words to my heart at that time. God was preparing us to leave home and move to Georgia.
Thanks for hosting this!
blessings,
stephanie
Kelly, I would love to win and also have my name added to your drawing! This definately looks like a great book to read! It is so neat that you are getting an interview with her!
Thank you so much for the opportunity to win this book!

At 51 you still have to work at your friendships. God has called us to be relational. Hope you are enjoying Crazy Love..GREAT book...read his book Forgotten God next, about the Holy Spirit! I have a stack of books too. Lisa came to our church and we were blessed to have her!
i would love to win this book. im a 30 year old...wait...im 31! OMGoodness...when did i turn 31?!? anywhoo...my relationships w/ friends have dwindled down these past few months and it saddens me that i have no one to call and vent my issues of my life. anywhoo...if this book can help w/ improving my situation...well i'll be glad to take one off your hands! =^)
I'd love to read this book! It seems so relevant to me right now! Thanks for the opportunity :)

Currently reading Beth Moores So long insecurity. I would lov eto win and read this next!
Have fun during the interview! What a fun talk that will be! She is one of my favorite Christian speakers.
What a great give-away, Kelly?! :) I agree with you, friendships have become more important to me during my adult years than any other time in my life.
I would love to win this! I love her and always have...
kkeaster@centurytel.net
Oh, how exciting. I would love to win and I have been wanting to read this book.
What a great book selection. After finishing So Long Insecurity, this would be a good one to read with my friends. What woman doesn't find keeping friends as working adults and parents challenging. To hear from a woman who loves Jesus makes the advice all the better. Thanks for the review and look forward to seeing the winners.
I would love a copy of this book! I've been married 2 1/2 years, were missionaries & expecting our 1st baby! I would love to read a book that could offer insight in maintaining my friendships with my girlfriends through all these changes because it's different.

I am in the process of moving, so this sounds like a great book to read as I start out new friendships!
