with Mary Potter Kenyon
Saturday, February 25, 11 am Eastern (10 CT, 9 MT, 8 PT)
There are “Christian writers” and then there are writers who are Christians, and there is a marketplace for both. In this Zoom webinar, Mary will share how God led her down this writing path with concrete examples of faith-filled pieces written to reach an audience that might not have a personal relationship with Jesus. She will also provide information about markets for getting started sharing God’s Word through your own writing. Important: The video will be available to view afterwards if the day and time don’t work for you or you want to watch it again. Through February 22 the cost for this 60-minute webinar is only $14.95. After February 22 the price increases to $17.95. If you prefer not to use PayPal, you can mail a check payable to Marlene Bagnull to 951 Anders Road, Lansdale, PA 19446.
Mary's seven books were published by a secular publisher, and she once worked as a reporter for a secular newspaper. Yet, because of her stories, God hit the front page in her small-town newspaper countless times. Readers of her book Refined By Fire: A Journey of Grief and Grace learned how faith got her through a dark period in her life. After reading her book Called to Be Creative there is no doubt that it is God who designed each of us to be creative.
