Thank you so much for this. I was just telling my husband the other day that I feel like God is calling me to write a devotional but I was terrified because I had no idea where or how to start.

[@kristinaharrison4545]

Thanks for the help on this one, it have been making a devotional that I am going to be publishing for the past trauma in my life and how Jesus has saved me from myself and the devils snares.. Thanks for the help!!

Hi Anna I think you are my new BFF!! ❤

[@ashlynmarks4632]

Hi Sister! I have a christian brand/community where I'm thinking of launching products such as devotionals. We should totally connect. God bless you!

[@highlyfavor4426]

As a Praise and worshiper I was ask by one of the sister in our women group to write a devotional which I have no idea what to do which will be my first time..

[@013DREC]

Wow this came at the perfect time! Thank you for your steps. Can you please review my 30 day devotional draft? Remain blessed

[@annaeckley]

Justin Case I would be honored! Email me at [e-mail] - Can’t wait to hear from you!

[@tonyamasoner8983]

This video was very helpful. I am actually in the process of writing a devotional based on verses I received in cards and letters during my battle with cancer. How would you approach a devotional on a topic? Thank you!

[@annaeckley]

Hi Tonya! This sounds beautiful! For a topic, I would recommend approaching it with a theme in mind. So for example... if your topic was battle with cancer, your theme may be pushing through the battle, or the theme could be seeking God in the trial. Then from there, you could review the verse cards that really helped you that lines up with those themes & then build your story in with the scripture! If you want to chat more, you can email me at [e-mail] or DM me on instagram! :) I hope this helps!

[@coookiescream]

Do you use a structure or a template or sth like that?

[@annaeckley]

I usually just go through these questions & answer them! However I could create a template for download if that would help!

[@MichaelMorehead711]

Amen Shalom Selah Avaha Yahweh Agape 😇🕯️🙏🕊️😭😘 ☔ ☔ ☔

[@tammiewilliams-reid]

Check the transcript it is not about anything you are talking about . You are very clear on your instructions but it is not transcripting what you are saying. Be blessed

[@alayeyehualashet8662]

It's good idea but it's very long to show steps short an clear to catch up. It is long like preaching

[@gloriadenise8600]

Thank you
