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 May:
Rachel Dylan
Jody Hedlund
Becky Wade
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.
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade.“—1 Peter 1:3-4 (NIV)
General Suggestions for Prayer:
- For an eternal perspective while writing (and marketing and prioritizing family and thinking of ideas for the next book).
- For opportunities to connect with, mentor, and learn from other writers.
- For readers to take the truth in these books and share that truth with others.
Thanks again for joining us in prayer for these authors and for other people in your lives. I love this particular tradition, and I know our authors do too.
