Oh my goodness, thank you, Abigail! These were all such great suggestions. I will definitely be thinking about them.
Unbridled Faithย sounds like such a fascinating devotional. It would be great to do something so unique. A certain area of experience is something interesting to think about. I also did not know that some devotionals are actually based off works of fiction, so that’s something to consider as well. Thank you for the amazing advice!

It might be fun to play with format and presentation! That’s a great point. I’m probably not obligated to choose a super specific theme, so that makes things easier. Thank you!

True. That would put my research to good use for sure. That’s why I was thinking maybe the book of Romans.

I’ve just started Lord of the Rings and from the size of that book, I think I’m gonna be in it a while. I have no idea why I just told you all of that. XD

TeenWritersNook.comFebruary 6, 2021 at 4:42 pm #91698@joy-caroline (Oops!ย Doesn’t look like it went through.ย I’ll try again ๐ ) That sounds like a wonderful idea.ย Is there anything that God has laid on your heart lately, or taught you through His Word?ย Perhaps you could draw a theme (or several themes) from that.ย For example, lately, I’ve been learning to surrender everything to God’s plans.
I have a book market guide that listed some Christian publishers seeking unsolicited manuscripts (and they listed devotionals as one of their book needs.)
I’ll list them below (I tried several times to post this with the links to their guidelines, but for some reason it doesn’t want to load.ย Maybe the forum reads the links as spam?ย Not sure.ย Sorry about that.)
AMG Publishers (They say they don’t want ‘unique’ devotionals; I’m not sure what that means, but I guess you can get an idea of what they want by browsing their other devotionals.)
Forward Movement
Group Publishing
Judson Press
Just to let you know, I haven’t fully read their guidelines/statement of faith, etc.ย But I hope it will be helpful as a launching off point. And if you’re interested, there are Christian magazines that run devotionals for kids/teens too. ๐

Very good thought! That’s a great way to come up with themes.
Thank you so much for letting me know about these publishers! I’ll definitely be looking those up to see if one or more could be potential good fits. Don’t worry about the links – the forum has prevented me from putting those before, so yeah… I’m not sure why. Probably yes, just spam protection.
Thanks again! This is so helpful!
