Episode Summary
In this foundational episode of Writing to Win with Mya Kay, Mya helps Christian women writers build a God-centered writing foundation before they chase book deals or marketing strategies. Drawing from the stories of Mary (Luke 2) and Bezalel (Exodus 31), she shows how God entrusts writers with “book babies,” gives detailed assignments, and even cares about their marketing language. Listeners will learn how to clarify their Christ-centered why, begin pulling out Spirit-led themes for marketing, and start thinking about their writer’s ecosystem so they can write—and keep writing—without compromise.
Key Points
- Why a Christ-centered why matters for every Christian woman writer (fiction and non-fiction).
- How the stories of Mary and Bezalel reveal what it means to carry and steward a God-given book.
