Discover The Magical World of Poetry for Kids

There are some books that feel like a celebration the moment you cast your eyes on the cover. You know something is happening here that is special. You see the artwork of sweet children! It makes you wonder about all the prayers and love that was poured into that moment. From ideas, to drawing time, to bending over paper with care and love!

When NOISE Fades, JOY Returns: A God-Called Writing Space

Last night’s Monarch Bootcamp reminded us that the biggest roadblocks to writing are not always skill or time, but the quiet noise that steals clarity. When we start with prayer and turn to Scripture, joy can return to the writing space. Love having a space for Christian authors to learn and grow together. Join us for our next bootcamp March 14, 2026 from 7-8:30 ET

Twenty Weeks to Life: A YA Christian Romance Novel by Jen Lowry

There are stories that live deep inside us—stories that don’t fade with time, even when life pushes them into the background. Twenty Weeks to Life is one of those stories. Book Cover Sweet Potato Jones came to me in a season of heartbreak. Her voice was raw and real, echoing the silent prayers of every girl who’s ever felt like she had to carry the world on her shoulders.
