I am reviewing a copy of Writing for Life and Ministry through Moody Publishers and Netgalley:

Writing In Life and Ministry is a different kind of writing book.

If you are an active member in ministry, whichever ministry that maybe it is inevitable that you will have to do some form of writing. Maybe the task of writing excites you, you can’t wait to get your creative juices flowing, or perhaps you procrastinate leaving only blank pages. Not everyone is called to write a book but it is inevitable that you will have to write something, perhaps a newsletter, a blog post, or even an email.

If you are new to writing you may feel overwhelmed and feel as if you don’t have a voice, rest assured you do, and you will find it.

No matter what you are writing it is important that you know the audience you are writing for, and define the relationship between writer and reader. Effective writers know themselves and know what they are trying to say.
