Since it’s the first Sunday of the month, we’ll be continuing the Bethany House Fiction tradition of taking time to pray for authors who have new releases coming out this month. I’m Amy Green, the fiction publicist here, and I’m thankful for all of the readers who show their support for our authors in the way that matters most: by praying for them. To read more about the reasons behind this time of prayer, go to this post.

Authors with Books Releasing in January:

Mary Connealy
Angela Hunt
Melissa Jagears
Regina Jennings
Tracie Peterson
Roseanna M. White
Karen Witemeyer
Kimberley Woodhouse

Verse of the Month: Feel free to use the text of this verse to guide your prayers for these authors, as well as other people in your life who you want to remember in prayer today.

“He has told each of you what is good and what it is the Lord requires of you: to act justly, to love faithfulness, and to walk humbly with your God.”—Micah 6:8 (CSB)

General Suggestions for Prayer:

• For a strong start to a new year and the beginning of good routines and goals.

• For opportunities to learn from and alongside other writers.

• For the books going out this month to readers through thousands of different retailers and libraries.

On behalf of all of these authors, thanks for taking time to pray, readers. We appreciate you!
