I'm working on a book called flow that contains inspired devos for creative Christians. I'm excited about this project! God truly has opened the floodgates of blessing when it comes to this book.
I am currently accepting submissions of creative devotionals for possible inclusion in flow. If you would like to write a devotional for consideration, please let me know by e-mailing me at marla_alupoaicei@yahoo.com. You may send your devo to me as an e-mail attachment. I have eleven sample devos written and can send you those at your request. I'd like to receive your devo submissions by AUGUST 17, if possible.
I've already received quite a few submissions, and they're amazing! I love seeing how the landscape of each person's spiritual walk combines with his or her life experiences and writing style to produce a completely unique, thought-provoking devotional.
Structure: Begin with a Bible verse or a creative quotation. Then expand on that in 3-4 paragraphs. You may also use a personal story or an illustration from a book in the body of the devo. (Please be sure to send me all bibliographical information from any books, websites, or other sources used.) Then, tie it all up with a compelling ending, which could include a powerful application point or quotation, a short writing exercise, or a thought-provoking question.
If possible, please use the NASB (New American Standard Bible) or The Message. See biblegateway.com to access these versions online.
Thanks, creative friends and colleagues! I look forward to reading your submissions. Blessings!
Hi Marla:
ResponderEliminarI'm excited about what God is doing through you and in your ministry. This sounds like an amazing project. I'm in the midst of planting a church in DC, but I'll try to submit one. Just found out about it on the DTS alumni page. Hope all is well. Blessings!
Dear Jumaine,
ResponderEliminarHello! Congratulations on your church plant. I hope that everything has been going well for you since seminary! I'm thrilled that you are interested in submitting a devotional for inclusion in flow. Your contribution means so much! If you know of other creative Christians who may be interested in submitting, please let them know about the project. I look forward to reading your devos!
Blessings-
Marla
