As Wise Stewards, It Is Our Responsibility and Greatest Joy
With this book, we seek to use the written word to bring glory to God through inspiring, encouraging and informative stories of how to be the Wise Steward from Luke 12.
THE BENEFITS OF COLLABORATION ARE IMMENSE...
WE ARE CALLED TO CARE FOR GOD'S PEOPLE
THE WAY OF THE WISE STEWARD IS OUR UNIVERSAL CALLING
To inspire others to be Wise Stewards in their own world is an exciting opportunity that is best achieved through the written word.
In Luke 12, we read Jesus's parable of the Wise Steward...the wise steward was the one who fed the master's household while the master was away.
From Jesus's parable we learn that the Way of the Wise Steward is to seek tirelessly to build the Kingdom of God on earth through our individual voice, our God-given divine message, our talents and skills, and past experiences.

WHY I DID 3 COLLABORATIVE BOOKS
BEFORE WRITING MY OWN
As I look back on the beginning of my journey to becoming a bestselling author, I knew I had a message to share but I didn't know where to begin. I was approached to do a collaborative book, and I immediately said YES, because I knew this was the fastest way for me to get published and get get my message out to the world. It was also the most economical way, since it cost only $4-5000 per book. I collaborated in two more books before I published my first book.
At the time I was participating in these anthologies, I was also writing my own book. All told, it took five editors, a writer's retreat, a weekend workshop, and $30,000 to publish my book.
I don't regret any of those investments in my own book, though I can say that it was through the collaborative books that I became a bestselling author. I would never have gotten to be a bestselling author as quickly and easily without those collaborations with other fantastic authors.
That's exactly why I know for certain that this book can be a game-changer for you in sharing your message.

GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO MORE
God can use you in a greater capacity as a bestselling author.
As the wise steward, we receive our authority from the master, and we feed His household, His people, with the words of His gospel as it is embedded in the message He has given us to share.
Join us in this venture of collaboration as we come together to share our stories of being a wise steward.
“Thank you both for your dedication to live the Lord's purpose out in your lives, you have brought us inspiration and encouragement along our journey!!”

"I am filled with gratitude for the two of you! And wanted to express it...how seamless and easy you two have made the transition...and the entire process of sharing my message! I wouldn't be where I am without the both of you! Love you!"

THERE IS POWER IN NUMBERS
For most of my life, I've felt called to be a voice in the wilderness, a voice crying out against a world ripe with anguish and sorrow. And to what end? I felt so strongly that I must work to protect others, to shelter others from the storm.
In that process, I realized how many beautiful souls felt stymied from sharing their messages, so for many years I abandoned my own message in order to help them share theirs. That brought me into the publishing world, and for that I am grateful. Through publishing, I also realized how great our power is when we work together. It is through collaboration that we garner power for Christ in a confused and dying world.
As Jesus said, "Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” Matthew 18:19-20 NKJV
There is no greater power on earth than our Savior, Jesus Christ. And now, with this project, I see a path to sharing His message–through us coming together in His name–with a world in desperate need of hope, direction, and love.
