Interested in writing for Red Letter Christians? We’d be delighted to consider your work! Take a look at the content on our site to familiarize yourself with our voice and tone, and read our guidelines below to know best how to submit your work.
We are particularly interested in centering the voices and experiences of those underrepresented in Christian publishing: LGBTQ+, women, people of color, etc.
COMPENSATION
We currently do not have a budget to pay writers. However, we will do our best to amplify your voice and work via our Facebook and Twitter channels and/or Catch Up e-newsletter. Select authors will also receive invitations to write Wake Up devotions, to speak on our podcast, or to join our network of leaders, as well as the opportunity to reserve free ad space or shout outs in our periodic partner roundups.
