It's not just about writing a book...

Writing a book is no small feat. It requires dedication, perseverance, and often, sacrifices. It's a labour of love that demands not only our time and effort but also financial investments. But beyond the sheer act of writing lies a deeper purpose—a mission to share a message of hope, faith, and love with the world.

Consider the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:14-16: "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven."

As Kingdom authors, our books are the lamps that illuminate the darkness, guiding lost souls towards the arms of a loving Father. For our light to shine brightly, it must be seen by others. This is why we have to partner with God, not only in the writing process but also in the promotion of the life-giving words He has given us.

Marketing and promotion do not always sit comfortably with most Christian authors. Fear of self-promotion or operating from pride often makes us hide our light under the bushel. It is time to come out from under that nonsense and start shining! Your message was meant to be heard.

Another stumbling block is believing that if God has called you to write, He will ensure that the book makes its way into the right hands. Well, this is not entirely true. God called you to write, but He did not write the book for you. You partnered with Him in the writing process. He also wants to partner with you in the promotion of your book. Your message is meant to reach the hearts it was intended for.

A big mistake authors make (and I tell you this from personal experience) is waiting for the book to be published before they start promoting their message. Marketing isn't just about selling books; it's about fulfilling our divine mandate to expand the Kingdom. It's about reaching those who are searching for answers, comfort, and spiritual guidance. It's about being obedient to God's call to share His love with the world.

Our books carry the potential to touch lives, ignite faith, and bring healing to broken spirits. But none of this can happen if our books remain invisible to the very people who need them.

Marketing is about building relationships, creating connections, and sharing our stories with those who are hungry for truth. Whether it's through social media, book signings, or speaking engagements, marketing allows us to extend the reach of our message far beyond our own spheres of influence. It's an act of obedience and faith, trusting that God will use our efforts to touch hearts and change lives.

Remember, you are not just writing a book; you are the message. Your words have the power to bring hope to the hopeless, faith to the faithless, and love to the loveless. Don't let fear or complacency dim your light. Step out in faith, knowing that God is with you every step of the way.

You are the light of the world. We're here to help you shine.
