Your Financial Support Makes All the Difference
Together as the Body of Christ, we are spreading the Good News in over 230 countries online and growing Christian writers who will write countless articles and books pointing people to Jesus. Your support is producing the fruit of new believers. Comments presented as received. Thank You!
1) I felt the holy spirit lead me to you and that God's message of love drew me here.
2) I want Jesus to be the number in my life.
3) I'm saved from sin and I've rededicated my life to HIM who owns me. I'm now free from lies, exam malpractice, etc. Pray for me to believe that indeed "It is finished "
4) I accepted Jesus as Lord and Need a Bible. (We sent Roger a Bible.)
5) I have accepted Jesus and praying to not continue to commit sin anymore. Matthew
6) Recently we had a Deputy Police Chief who is directly responsible for over 1,500 officers and staff from a major city accept Jesus as savior. He could be a big influence. Pray for J. Ramar.

| Encourage Fellow Writers - Commit to Comment
On At Least One Challenge Entry a Week
Reading and commenting on a regular basis offers a double blessing. The author is encouraged and grows, and those who comment learn and improve their writing skills too.
I know we are all busy. But are we too busy to comment on one Challenge entry per week? Just think how encouraged we are when people comment on our entries. If every member who receives this weekly notification commented on at least one Challenge entry per week, there would be roughly 500 additional comments on the entries. Will you please take a few minutes right now to help and encourage a fellow writer?

There are nine topics per quarter, with a one-week break (to catch your breath) between weeks five & six.
July 6th, 2023, Quarterly Topics in the News - As Christians, we are called to be in the world by not of the world ("I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world." John 17:14). However, we need to be aware of what is going on in the world, the way the world thinks and teaches, and what God's word teaches us and how we're to react to the world.
This quarter, we're going to focus on things that are relevant to believers from the news/current events and how we are to relate to these more controversial issues. These are topics we may be asked to write on for publications in the world today. We are back to single-word topics for this quarter. The topic word can be mentioned in the entry, but it is NOT required, but it must be obvious that it is the main theme of the entry. We ask all who enter to seek God's guidance and to remember that we are called to offer the world truth in love.
NEW TOPIC:
Topic 2 – Begins July 13/ Ends July 20
Division
Winners Announced July 27
Topic 2: Division - "So there was a division among the people because of him." John 7:43 Anywhere we look, we see division. We see an “us vs them” mindset: conservative vs liberal, rich vs poor, white vs black, men vs women, and the world vs Christians. Even Jesus said, “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:” (Luke 12:51 KJV). So should we be surprised by the division in the world? How should we navigate the division we see and still represent Christ?
We want to encourage more of our Christian fiction writers to submit an entry. Please remember, all entries must be newly written and a maximum of 750 words.
If you have any new ideas, questions, concerns, complaints, or feedback about this quarter's Challenge format, please email Michael@faithwriters.com.
