  • Marketing with Purpose: 3 Reflection Questions Every Christian Author Needs
    Jul 31 2025

    Why did God make you a writer?

    In this episode of Heart for Creatives, we explore one of the most overlooked keys to marketing with purpose—clarity rooted in identity.

    If you're a Christian author overwhelmed by what to say, how to show up, or who you're truly writing for, this episode is your permission slip to slow down and seek Jesus for answers.

    Together we walk through three intentional reflection questions to help you:

    • Discover why God made you a writer
    • Clarify how He wants to use your words
    • Identify who you’re called to serve

    We'll walk away with permission to stop overthinking your message, a reminder to align your marketing strategies with your God-given creativity, and the freedom to communicate with grace—not grind. Plus, we’ll talk about how to ditch soul-sucking hustle tactics and embrace sustainable rhythms (yes, even without social media!).

    Grab your journal and settle in. These questions will stretch your spirit, spark fresh inspiration, and help you build a writing life that honors the Lord and blesses your readers.
