What did you think of this episode?

As a writer, your story behind the story may prompt you to give up. But not this day!!! Get ready to hear today’s story with Lori Stanley Roeleveld.

Welcome to Your Best Writing Life, an extension of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference held in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of NC. I’m your host, Linda Goldfarb. Each week, I bring tips and strategies from writing and publishing industry experts to help you excel in your craft. I’m so glad you’re listening in. During this episode, we continue a new addition to Your Best Writing Life with The Story Behind the Stories series.

My industry expert, Lori Stanley Roeleveld, is a writer, writing coach, speaker, devotional firestarter, and certified disturber of hobbits. She helps Christian writers find their voice, finish their books, and follow Jesus into the hidden places where real transformation begins. Her work is biblical, brave, merciful, and delightfully dangerous to the darkness.

Tell us the story behind - God’s Abundant Mercy: 40 Days of Living in His Compassion.

Three tips for writers.

a. Write WITH God, not FOR God. Don’t imagine that writing is holy, but branding and marketing are not. You can approach brand and market in a soul-satisfying way.

b. Manage your mindset and your energy, and your time/calendar will then come into line.

c. Abandon deficit thinking in favor of an abundance mindset in writing and in life. Trust God has given you everything you need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3).

What will the listeners gain from your book?

Writers who experience God’s Abundant Mercy will see what it looks like to write about Scripture with confidence and authority but without answering “all the questions” or presenting formulas. Each chapter ends with questions that my research and reflection left me asking.

Readers will come away with a fresh perspective on God from the beginning of the Bible into eternity and a deeper appreciation of God’s mercy for each of us and how truly receiving that mercy shapes us to reflect it to others.
