“Sharing truth as truth…sharing what God’s Word says.” Caris Snider, SCWC\u00a0 Workshop Presenter<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

Monday Writers’ Meetup<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Each Monday, or if needed, on Tuesday, I meet up by phone with friends who attended the 2025 Southern Christian Writers’ Conference. We spend our time digging deeper into the conference workshops. Yesterday, and today, our topic was How to Write Devotional Books presented by Caris Snider. I gained so much from her presentation, both live and virtual and then, again with my Monday and Tuesday friends as we discussed our takeaways from the workshop.<\/p>\n

Caris <\/a><\/span>is the author of several books. One of my favorite is Anxiety Elephants. A 31-Day Devotional To Help Stomp Out Your Anxiety. Check it out on Amazon<\/a>. Quoting from this book:<\/p>\n

\u201cI have learned over the years that when I stop grabbing my phone to see what everyone is saying about my social media posts, or to see what everyone else is doing, and instead, grab my Bible to see what God is saying, I am more equipped to fight any anxiety trying to come my way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Have I told y’all how much I love reading, writing, and learning? You thought I was going to say Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic, didn’t you? That’s from way back there somewhere in my memories!<\/p>\n

Check out Caris Snider’s Website<\/a> and learn more about her books. She is an amazing author and speaker.<\/p>\n

Next Week’s Recap<\/h2>\n

Coming next week on Monday Writers’ Meetup will be the SCWC workshop presented by Shirley Crowder and Harriet Michael: Collaborative Creations.<\/p>\n
