Barbour Publishing has launched a social media campaign aimed at generating a buzz for a new book—and is donating Bibles in the process.

To celebrate the Feb. 1 release of Only God—Change Your Story, Change the World by Dwight Mason, the publisher's "Share Your Story. Share a Bible." campaign encourages readers to help change the world by sharing their "Only God stories."

"An 'Only God story' is a personal experience that is so amazing, so miraculous and so incredible that it could have only come from God Himself," company officials said. "For each story shared, Barbour will donate a Bible to one of several nonprofit organizations across the country."

Running now through Feb. 22, the campaign can be found on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/ExperienceOnlyGod or on Twitter at @OnlyGodBk using the hashtag #OnlyGodBook. If a person does not feel comfortable sharing his or her story, the individual can just share a quote or review of the book to participate.

In Only God, Mason, lead pastor of NewPointe Community Church in Dover, Ohio, shares how God can use a local church to transform people, communities and the world in an extraordinary way.
