"expressing faith through writing is an exceptional creative writing course. this ebook is a 'must have' for newbie writers, particularly if you desire to write inspirational or scriptural works. you're taken through a process that teaches you how and where to get ideas, how to structure those ideas into something worth reading and getting published. the course includes writing and grammar skills--which i personally need. i'm a bit 'rusty' in that area. each lesson provides invaluable knowledge. i promise you won't be disappointed. lesley linda ault "
"hi sue! just a note to thank you for the lessons...i am semi-retired, a senior who is getting close to seventy but have always had a desire to write but have done very little about it...i'm sure there are many younger writers out there who will go on to proclaim the wondrous gospel of jesus christ to the world after receiving the valuable help that you give them. keep up the good work! god bless!!" kent g

"i want to thank you for the free writing course. the basics and simple checklists were very helpful...this past summer i took a graduate course on creative writing to fulfill my need for credits to keep my teaching certificate. although i have always liked to write, this increased my desire to spend more time at it. i was interested in your course because of my desire to write from a christian viewpoint. the college instructor allowed me the freedom to do this but not instruction in it. your free course was helpful." sandy
" i have taken several writing courses including your "simple steps to express your faith through writing." i like this one best because: -you start us off writing. -you give us a reason to write -you keep us focused on that reason. (our faith in our lord and saviour jesus christ) -you give us practical, easy steps written in our language. this is a "i can do it" course. and i can do it god's way. thank you for being there for us." linda

what is your reason to express your faith?
this web site is dedicated to equip christians to express their faith through writing. my vision for this site is that it will become a place not only to learn to express your faith but also a place to receive encouragement and avenues for your expression.
for starters, i have two tools to help you on this journey. whether you have little knowledge of the writing process and few ideas in your notebook or you have accumulated much knowledge about writing but have lacked direction or purpose, i am here to help. sos newsletter.
this newsletter began a few years ago when i gave a workshop for christian educators. since then the list has grown. i include writing tips, educational resources, and lesson plans. i also provide links to free software downloads, usually resources that will help you become a better writer. even though my target audience is writers and teachers, i encourage homeschool families to join.
this free newsletter will arrive each month. i guarantee that you will look forward to reading and taking advantage of the numerous suggestions and resources available.
i have developed six lessons that will start you on your way to express your faith through writing. these lessons contain exercises that you can use to enrich your devotional time and at the same time help you to gather a rich source of material for writing about your faith.
