Collapse section Nonfiction Open

Our Musings are meant to set readers on a path to meditating on certain concepts or certain aspects of God’s character. Part of being a Christian is accepting that we don’t know everything, that there are things we cannot explain, Musings can tackle these areas and leave readers in a place of pondering.

Craft articles should explain a creative exercise or form that creative writers can use to hone their craft. Your post should include both a clear connection on how this exercise relates to the spiritual discipline of writing and an example of the completed exercise so your readers can have a practical model to follow.

You can also choose to explore the work of a particular writer in a Craft Article. Your post should directly reference one or more of the poet’s work and how they might be a model for us today, both in a spiritual and practical approach to writing.
