May 15, 2020 by Belinda Pollard 10 Comments

Country road through green trees beside misty lake

An inspiring and encouraging guest post from copywriter, Dawn Dicker. When Donita Bundy posted about how the intimacy of spending time alone with God “evaporated as soon as I stepped back into the slipstream of life,” she nailed my problem. Scripture memorization, daily declarations, prayers to better share God’s love—all melted away in the pressures […]

Christian writers and self-doubt

May 8, 2020 by Belinda Pollard 12 Comments

Uncertainty can dog Christian writers, and it often takes us by surprise. We expect to be all calm and spiritual, not scared and hiding under a blanket. Why does it happen? Imagination is deeply personal Baring our imagination and creativity is intimidating. It’s a window to the soul. When someone rejects or judges our creativity, […]

An Australian Gracewriter, Eliza, has allowed us to reproduce her thoughtful and beautiful poem on the blog this week – her thoughts that have sprung from the coronavirus isolation. Thank you, Eliza!

A road through the desert with mountains in the far distance.

A thoughtful guest post by author, blogger and photographer, Donita Bundy. After spending time last week with God in isolation­ – curled into the foetal position from debilitating chronic pain – the intimacy evaporated as soon as I stepped back into the slipstream of life. Last week’s connection has been replaced with busyness and clutter. I […]

When Christian writing is a battlefield

While I was preparing this topic for Gracewriters this week, my computer suddenly went dark and quiet and smelled like burnt toast. Stuff happens, but it’s interesting timing. Other Christian writers are facing heightened challenges at this time, from practical difficulties to flare-ups of chronic illnesses to conflict at home. It’s important not to over-spiritualise […]

Easter, behind closed doors

This week, Gracewriters welcomes guest contributor Donita Bundy, with inspiration and encouragement to point us toward Jesus during this very strange Easter 2020. Last Sunday was Palm Sunday, the day we remember and celebrate Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem riding on a donkey, an animal symbolising humility, peace and Davidic royalty. The streets of Jerusalem […]

Christian writers: Heal your stress, find your purpose

April 2, 2020 by Belinda Pollard 6 Comments

Some Christian writers feel guilty that they can’t get on with their writing, because their minds are scrambled by pandemic stress. Many don’t want to use the word “fear” because they are afraid it sounds unspiritual or maybe even a sin. But I am willing to tell you straight out: I have experienced fear outbursts […]

Being a Christian writer during the COVID-19 pandemic

March 25, 2020 by Belinda Pollard 14 Comments

For weeks, my head has been buzzing like a swarm of bees, while the world as we know it crumbles. Anxiety, disrupted sleep, trouble concentrating on work, reading too much news, scroll-scroll-scrolling through social media, trying to buy groceries from empty shelves (did I just hear a cough?!), worry, worry, worry.
