Writing Articles for Christian Publications

Writing Articles for Christian Publications

By Geoffrey Makori Ratandi, from Kenya

Writing for Christian publication involves crafting articles that are aimed at strengthening the faith of Christians worldwide. These articles can take many forms, including personal experience stories that demonstrate how one's faith has impacted their life and the lives of others. The authenticity of these stories is essential, as they aim to inspire and uplift readers with positive and useful insights. The writer must employ all of their skills and engage in proper planning to make the piece engaging and readable.

The goal is to evoke powerful feelings and details associated with the experience in as few words as possible. The writer should avoid preaching or moralizing and allow the experience to speak for itself, enabling the reader to find their own meaning in it. Additionally, devotionals, prayers, and scripture-based articles can be written for both popular and professional Christian publications. These articles may be shorter and more conversational in style for popular publications, while academic and professional publications often require more in-depth and theological articles, typically authored by people in full-time ministry.

Testimonies and biographies can also be written to encourage and strengthen the faith of readers. Testimonies are first-person accounts of how one found faith, which need not involve a miraculous conversion. Testimonies could illustrate how one slowly and thoughtfully came to their religion through reading and reflection or how the love and kindness of someone they met convinced them of their beliefs.

Biographies often focus on the religious work of an inspiring figure, which could be a contemporary missionary, a preacher in one's community, or a saint from long ago. The personal life and work of these figures can shine a light on their faith and inspire others.

In conclusion, writing for Christian publications aims to strengthen, encourage, and build the faith of fellow believers worldwide.
