I came to the conference with a dry-spirit, no agenda, no proposals, no manuscripts... and I made no appointments.  For me, the 2008 conference was a retreat for my soul.  This conference went above and beyond my expectations.  Thanks for all the hard work that went into this event.  I will never be the same.  You have a new walking billboard ad!

 
       
     
Informative, exhausting, inspiring, hopeful.

 
           
     

The conference inspired and challenged me to become a disciplined Christian writer.






 

Writing for the Soul is a beautiful blend of encouragement and education.  Jesus is central here.

 
      The pursuit of excellence taught by authors and modeled by staff and guests, the five-star ambience, the Carnegie-hall artistry—all orchestrated to inspire Christian Writers to pray and work hard to craft literature matching or surpassing that written by those who are not believers.  
 
 
  I knew I would be learning a lot at the conference - what I didn't expect was the profound change within me. I am going home with a fire in my heart to pursue nothing less than excellence in my service to the Lord.    
 
 


 

The energy and Christian atmosphere were truly blessings.

 

 


 The conference helped me to understand the writing industry and will be a priceless blessing from the Lord in my future pursuit of the craft of writing.
 
 
     

   
 

I have attended and presented at professional and scientific meetings.  I was pleased to see this group of Christian writers approach this with such professionalism and excellence.  What a great first experience and tremendous first impressions.

 



 

 

     
 
   
    This is the conference that will either define or confirm your call to write or set you free to discover what your call is.  We must be about the Father's business. If for you it is writing, this conference will set you on the right and successful course.    

Buckle your seatbelt and be ready to be encouraged, inspired and spiritually rewarded. You'll come away a better and more proficient writer.

 
   

The conference made me realize I was not alone.  Many writers were once where I am and are right here with me still, encouraging me, strengthening me, and bringing me closer with my walk with God than ever before.

 
   

The conference speakers rejuvenated my tired soul by chasing away my doubts about the path of writing for God's glory. They brought the winning of the battle against the hearts of mankind as one achievable through Christ's leading as we submit and are obedient.


I've attened at least twelve writing conferences, this conference stands above them all; it's the rarest kind of best.

 
     

This is my fifth year attending. I'm in awe at how far the Lord has brought me.  My first conference I walked in with an "I don't know why I'm here" gaze. This year I'm walking away with three publishers wanting my proposal and chapters.

 
     
I feel totally refreshed!                                      
 
       
         
     

Wow! Awesome! I witnessed God's hand at work so many times in so many ways. His presence was so evident all weekend. My doubts of myself and my skill vanished as I came to realize it isn't me, it is Him. Praise God for the precious gift. Bless you all for this amazing weekend.
