It’s that time of the year again: The Quarterly Bloggy Giveaway Week.
I write an online column for God’s World News, a current events news magazine for kids that provides commentary on current news from a biblical perspective. There are a lot of great resources available on the God’s World News website, but even more important is the print version that comes right to your door. These magazines are great resources for your kids – homeschooled, Christian schooled, or public schooled. No matter your educational decision, this is a great tool for engaging with your children and the news.
The magazines are published once a month for the length of the school year with a separate summer subscription available. There are four levels of the magazine: Early Edition, Taking Off, News Current, and Top Story.
For this giveaway, we’re offering four school year subscriptions. This means your subscription will finish out this school year and pick up again next September for 9 month’s worth of God’s World News.
You can enter this giveaway three ways:
- Get one entry by leaving a comment below along with the God’s World News level you are most interested in receiving.
- Get a second entry by looking at the God’s World News website. Come back here and leave a comment telling which online resource you would use the most. Again, tell which magazine level you are most interested in receiving.
- Get a third entry by blogging about this contest on your own site. You will have to come back here and leave another comment letting me know you linked and again, tell me which level you want.
Comments for this contest will close on Thursday, October 30 at 10pm. Winners will be announced soon after.
Easy peasy, rice and cheesy.
Thanks for entering!
Thursday, October 30 10:00pm – The comments are now closed. Winners will be announced shortly.
One of my kids got this in her class last year. It is a great magazine! I would love to have it at home.
Our Girlie is in Jr. High so I think Top Story would be best for her.
Thanks for the giveaway!
What a great giveaway!
We’d need the Pre-K/1st edition.
And I believe I’d come back to their website for their Homeschool Resources links!
Thanks again!

What a fabulous giveaway. We’d go for the early addition.
Thanks so much!

What a great giveaway! We get World magazine and my son *used to* get God’s World News through his school, but they stopped.
We’d be interested in the News Current version. Thanks!
My boys (I have 4 of them) would love this…each of my children are on a different level…Hmmm…I would probably go for the Early Edition.
I love God’s World, but neglected to subscribe this school year…kept putting it off! I’d love to win the Top Story subscription! Thanks for the chance.
Interesting contest! We can always use more material to discuss as we homeschool. I’d use Taking Off with my son, thanks.
We could really enjoy the Today In History feature on the website! Thanks for a second chance for the contest (Taking Off).
I would choose Top Story. monk5@charter.net
We are most interested in Top Story. We have received sample issues in the past and enjoyed it.
I’d like the Pre-K through 1st. This is a really neat magazine. What a great idea. We’ve been having a lot of current event talks because of all the election coverage. I’d love to have this for my son.
I had never heard of this magazine before! It looks wonderful! I would choose the PreK- 1st
Thank you for the giveaway!

I homeschool my 2 (well, I have 3 but the baby is only 2 months old) I think we could do well with “Taking Off”
Sounds like a great mag for my kids! Thanks & count me in!
We would be interested in the Early Edition!
We could use the early education edition.
bebemiqui82(at)yahoo(dot)com
Top Stories would be the choice for our homeschool
My girls used to read this at their Christian school. Now they are in a public school, but I’d love to enter to winthis for them so they could still get it and read it at home!
On another note, I am looking for some freelance columnist positions. If this newsletter ever offers anything where I could write on media influences on girls and put things in perspective for young girls – I’d be interested.
We would love the News Current edition. Fabulous giveaway!
We would like the Early Edition…thanks!
My little girls (4&3) would LOVE Early Edition.
Taking Off would be perfect for my 3rd grader.
taking off is the level i would choose. thanx!
My homeschooled first grader would love those!
Thanks for participating.
I actually never heard of this magazine, but I’d be interested in reading it!
Taking Off would be perfect for my son! Thank you for the opportunity to enter the giveaway!
Great giveaway, I love this resource. I would be most interested in the Top Story level for my family.
Thanks,
Kathy

I’d like the Top Story level for my family.
The online resource that I think we could use the most is the Explain It section in the library/archive area. Thanks
We are homeschooling for the first time this year, and would love to win the youngest subscription! Thanks!
I’d be interested in the News Current (4th-5th grade level) for my son.
We have had God world before but havent gotten a chance this year to order. The older children like the newspaper but the younger ones I think would be good with New Current.

Thank you for introducing me to such a Great Site!
My DD’s would benefit most from the News Current is written for students in 4th and 5th grades.
Thank You!
What a great magazine in a world of, well, crud.
My husband and I are both history geeks- I would totally use “This Day In History”, well, daily! Thanks for showing me this great resource!
The Taking Off Edition. Thanks for this giveaway.
Great giveaway! We’d be interested in the Top Story level for my sixth-grader who is very interested in current events and politics. It would make a great addition to our homeschool.
top story mrs.mommyyatgmail.com
Early edition. I like the teacher resources on the website.
ruthkerri (at) yahoo.com
Early Edition. I homeschool and I wanted to subscribe to this but it just didn’t fit into the budget. This is a great give-away.
We would use the middle school option.
i have never heard of this mag before. now I am really intrested.
Stormy5475@aol.com
We are most interested in Top Story. Thanks for the giveaway.
owatz (AT) telus (DOT) net
I’m interested in Top Story – Our homeschool co-op was doing a group subscription on these at the beginning of the school year – but I missed the boat – so winning a year would be great!
I would want Top Story. I’ve wanted to get a subscription for some time now, but it seems that the money runs out too quickly. This would be a wonderful resource to win for our homeschool! Thanks!
Wow! Just one resource that I would use? I doubt I could narrow it down that far. The Topics & Goals in the teacher section would be very helpful. The Archive & Library section looks awesome. My youngest son would LOVE perusing and researching this area. Thanks again!
Top Story is the level I would want.
I think News Current would be best for us. It’s between my two kids. What a cool giveaway. Glad to hear about the publication, too. I wasn’t familiar with it.
I would use the Teacher’s resources online to help me as mom and older sister to homeschoolers. We used to get this when I was younger. I think I’d like the top story edition. Would it be okay to have it sent to my siblings. my kids are still too young.
I’m interested in Top Story. And I would use online weekly teaching guides and resources.
serving_theKingofkings@yahoo.com
We’re first time homeschoolers. Taking Off would be a great fit for my kids.
I would love to enter to win either Taking Off or Top Story but beyond that thanks for sending me to the site. I will be using their Bible2life word study in the future for my kids and myself as well. I also would use the bonus pages with the subscription. Thanks!
Hmmm – I have kids at all levels, but I think I’d go with Top Story.
Thanks for the informational giveaway.
A friend of mine was just telling me about your magazine. Thanks for the opportunity to win. I think I would probably order the Taking Off edition.
I just visited the God’s World News website and I’m excited about the “Just For Kids” section. I plan on showing it to my kids after school today. Thanks!
It looks really great. Our son would be most interested in Top Story. Thank you for the giveaway.
For my second entry:
Our son would like the Just For Kids section, especially the Today’s History as he is a real buff and the Bible devotion section too. He loves to read. In the Parent/Teacher resources, the bonus pages would be great too.
I’m bookmarking that site! Thank you for introducing us to it.
We used to get these through our homeschool support group. My older children loved them.
I think we’d go for the Top Story edition.
We would love to win the Taking Off Subscription.
Thanks,
Christy
I zoomed over to the God’s World site. I would probably use the Bonus Pages online resource the most.
Thanks,
Christy
I would like Early Edition!
I like the teaching resources!
This is great for using in the classroom or homeschooling. The Early Edition would be fantastic for my nephew.
Deborah
dbstout{at}juno{dot}com
We would like the Taking Off edition. I will definitely go back to their site for the homeschool resource.
My son’s still little, so we’d go with Early Edition.
(Early Edition reader)
I love that they have Today’s History — this date in history section. That always makes history more alive when you know it happened today!
I don’t have kids but, if I’m still eligible, I have a family that I know would enjoy it oh so much (four boys!). Any level would be appreciated.
Thanks for the giveaway opportunity! I’m giving away a rhinestone cluster ring (and some more later this week!) on my blog. Feel free to come enter your name.
jennifer.lynn.vincent at gmail dot com
this looks great and my daughter loves to read-she’ll be 7 soon, and is in First Grade so am torn between the Early Edition or Taking Off…since she reads well, I would probably choose Taking Off.
micaela6955 at msn dot com
Would love this for my learning children! I would choose the Taking Off level! Thanks for the chance to win!
For online resources, I would have to say the bonus pages-they can be printed off and supplement the magazine and can be used as an additional learning tool. The edition we would choose would be the Taking Off edition.
micaela6955 at msn dot com
OH, WOW! I will definitely be using the Teaching Resources! Thanks for the great link! And I would choose the Early Edition! Thanks for the chance to win!
The Early Edition would be best for our crew… We got this when I was teaching at a private school and I always thought it to be a great resource. Thanks for sharing!
I’d be most interested in Taking Off. It’d be perfect for my godson.
Top Story would be wonderful for our family! Thanks for a chance to enter!!
My husband would love News Current!
Cindy
I guess top story would work the best for us.
As many years as I have been homeschooling, one would think I would have heard about this now. Especially since I am in the ministry. I write family devotionals and object lessons for children. So I am blown away to learn about this today and it would not have happened if I did not visit your site. Hope to learn more soon. Please send me an email with more info about your magazine. Thank you so much and blessings to you!
This is a great contest! We’d go for the “Early Edition” and the online resource we’d probably use the most is the bonus pages. We already subscribe to World mag and LOVE it! Thanks for the contest!
I would like the “early edition” level!
My most useful online resource would be the printable supplement activities in the early edition level!
I would love the Top Story for my kids, I have 4 at home still that would fit that level.
Thank you for having this. I have a prek and 2 First graders so I think the Early edition would be wonderful. Thank you!
tatertot374@sbcglobal.net
I would love the Top Story Level. Great giveaway!
libertythreads@charter.net
I would use the Kids Corner from the Website and the Top Story magazine.
libertythreads@charter.net
I have 5 kiddos so probably all of the levels…but, the early edition would probably suit us the best.
I have many different ages as well, but I think I would like Taking Off the best right now.
Thanks so much!
Nancy @ Homemade Blessings
we have gotten these in the past and always love them. Couldn’t renew last year due to budget crunch… my 5th grader would love to get it again though!
As for the links, I’d be looking at the Teacher’s helper.
I would love to receive the Top Story edition.
I would love taking off…my 1st grader would love this/ i haven’t heard of it before so I will have to subscribe if we don’t win!
I’ve always wanted to subscribe to this but never have. I’d choose the top story since both my girls are a bit older. though one is only in 4th grade, and the other in 7th. I’ll blog about this later today. I’m combining several to blog about all at once.
News Current (4th – 5th) – I have a 4th grader and feel this would be just an awesome addition to our homeschooling days!
Have never heard of this magazine…sounds very interesting. I would get the News Current for my 5th grader. Thanks for the chance.
Count me in!
Thanks!
The online resource I would use the most is probably the Kids Korner for my kids.
Thanks again!
Top Story would be my pick.
These look great. i would like to start out with Early Edition if I won.
Wow what a great site. I have a 5th grader so the News & Current would be the subscription I would need. I am excited to go back and browse the entire site. I will definitely use the Archive and Library.
Taking Off would be the best choice for us. Thanks for hosting this contest.
Would love to win this. Taking off would be good for my first grader!
I have never heard of this before, but sounds good. I’d pick the Taking Off
Great give-away!
Who doesn’t love magazines?!
=-]
~Peace out!
Taking Off
I’d choose “Taking off”
I love printables! I’m sure I’d get lots of use out of the printables online resource. Taking Off sounds like the best fit for my kids.
The Early Edition would be perfect for my son. Thanks for the chance to win!
I would be most interested in the Early Edition – Thanks!
The parent/teacher resource section of their website looks great – I am taking over our children’s ministry activities at our church next year so this is a good resource!
Early edition for me!
I would love the News Current for my daughter.
Thanks!
I would use the Archive and Library resource the most. I would be interested in the News Current.
Thank you!
Top Story would be wonderful.
Thanks
I used this same magazine when I taught school back in 2001. I loved receiving it in the mail and watching the students stick their noses in the pages. The room would get so quiet and then they would all eagerly shared what they read. Thanks so much. I think the TAKING OFF level would be best suited for our group of children.
I have heard such wonderful things about this magazine but I have avoid buying it because it’s just not in the budget. It would be such a bonus to our homeschooling though. I would be most interested in the Taking Off editions. Thanks!
I would like the News Current
I would use the homeschool resources. I would like the News Current.
What an awesome magazine – I’ve not heard of it before! We would be able to use the Taking Off.
I just checked out the website and there is so much I would use but I think what I liked the most was the Bible 2 Life Resources especially the Word Study.
We would like Taking Off.
What a wonderful thing to offer! We would love to have the Early Edition (preK thru 1st). My ds would love getting this in the mail.
thank you!
We would use the “news now” online help. I love that it is tailored to different reading levels.
(we would like the early edition–K-1st)
thank you… I’m very interested in going back to your blog and look around.
I have been wanting to try this out- what a great opportunity. We would go for the Early Edition though as my little one are still little ones!!
Thanks for the great giveaway!!
This looks awesome! We homeschool and this would be such an awesome addition to our studies. News Current would be the right choice for our family.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
