#166: How to write a devotional book with a simple step-by-step plan

Hey, Hit Splits family, this is Shelly Hits and I wanted to share with you that we are hosting a brand new live workshop on how to write a 21 day devotional book with a simple step by step plan. This is something that you guys have been asking me for. And so we're finally doing it and CJ's joining me for this workshop because he's the one that's really written the most devotional books out of both of us. And we've done a lot of these 21 day books. Now if you want your devotional book to be 30 days or 90 days or 365 days, you can create it at whatever length you want. But you'll get the basic concepts and you'll actually be able to start writing your first devotional on the workshop. So this is not just more information. We're going to help you choose your theme, we're going to help you choose your structure for the daily devotionals, Outline one devotional and actually start writing it. So this is gonna be fun. If you're wanting to do this, I encourage you to check out the link in the description and join us. We're calling it Think on these Things workshop. So it's based on Philippians 4, 8 where it talks about think on these things, right? Whatever's true, whatever's honest, whatever's just, whatever's pure, whatever's lovely, whatever's of good report. If there be any virtue what or of any, if there be any praise, think on these things. And that's from the King James version. But we want to help you inspire others to think on the things of God. And so if you're tired of staring at a blank page wondering how to start writing a devotional book, or you're frustrated by unfinished drafts and the fear that your message will never be heard, or maybe you're worried that God is calling you to write, but you'll never actually finish a book. We want you to join us for this workshop where you'll walk away with a simple plan to actually write your devotional book so you can finally share the message God has put on your heart and impact lives without the feeling of overwhelm. We're going to simplify the process for you. So in this workshop, like I said, you'll get a simple method for choosing a theme that flows so you never run out of ideas, a clear structure for each day's devotional to make writing feel natural and repeatable. And then our go to process for writing devotionals quickly. Even if you struggle with self doubt or overthinking. You'll also get a powerful checklist to help help you craft devotionals that engage, inspire and impact readers. And we'll even include a 15 minute writing sprint so you can start your first devotional before you leave. So you'll walk away with real progress, not just more information. And we have a free gift for you. Anyone who signs up for the workshop will get three pre designed devotional templates. These are like to help you with your structure so that way you're not just figuring this out on your own. You'll have three different templates to choose from and we're really excited to help you.
