Grand Prize Winner Receives Skype Call with Tebow, Limited Edition Signed Bat, and Autographed Copy of Shaken: Young Readers Edition
Colorado Springs, Colorado – (October 5, 2017) In conjunction with the release of his new book, Shaken: The Young Reader’s Edition – Fighting to Stand Strong No Matter What Comes Your Way (WaterBrook, September 12, 2017), Heisman Trophy winner, former NFL quarterback and now professional baseball player Tim Tebow is launching a book report contest that is running from September 26, 2017, through January 8, 2018. Aimed at youth ages 10 to 15 years old, this contest encourages reading and writing and reminds them of their identity in Jesus.
Participants are invited to write a report, limited to one page with a maximum of 750 words, on how the Shaken: Young Reader’s Edition inspired or challenged them in their lives. The grand prizewinner will receive a limited edition, signed Tim Tebow “TT-15” baseball bat, a signed copy of Shaken: Young Reader’s Edition, and a Skype call with Tebow. The two runners-up will receive a signed, game-played baseball from Tebow and a signed copy of Shaken: Young Reader’s Edition. For official rules and details, visit www.WMBooks.com/ShakenRules.
Young readers of Shaken will be captivated and motivated by Tebow’s personal stories of highs and lows. With the enthusiastic voice and contagious positivity that he’s known for, Tebow inspires his young readers to believe that God is ready to do great things through them—in their families, their schools, and around the world.
“There is nothing more empowering, more life-giving and more exciting than having a strong identity,” says Tebow. “Jesus knew this, and He wants you to know it as well. When we are willing to let God define who we are, He will take what we have to offer and multiply it in ways and for a purpose that we cannot imagine. My prayer is that, no matter what you’re facing today, this book will help you discover an unshakable identity and a God-designed purpose for your life!”
