In the midst of all the turmoil and pressures of life in the 21st Century, the idea of escaping to a place of peace and beauty can be very appealing. Each year, more and more people are
moving away from the hustle and bustle of city living, in the hope of finding tranquility in a world of unrest. However, for the vast majority, it's8217;s a case of making that peaceful
place right were we are--and the latest anthology from FaithWriters.com 's8220;Come Away with Me,'s8221; will help to do just that.
Using Song of Songs 2:10-13 for inspiration, FaithWriters.com members were challenged to let their creativity run free by writing about such topics as 's8220;singing,'s8221;
's8220;flowers,'s8221; 's8220;fragrance,'s8221; 's8220;rain,'s8221; and 's8220;fruit.'s8221; The end result is a glorious selection of stories and poems that will stir the reader's8217;s
heart and bless their soul.
FaithWriters.com Writing Challenge Coordinator, Deborah Porter, said, 's8220;This particular passage of scripture has always captivated me. It is such an expression of love and beauty,
that I can never fail to be uplifted whenever I read it. So, I have to admit that this is probably my personal favorite of all our anthologies to date. It is definitely a soul reviver for
anyone who feels as though they are living in an eternal winter.'s8221;
FaithWriters--Come Away with Me (ISBN: 1600342396, Xulon Press, 2006, $17.99) is a collection of 80 award winning inspirational, encouraging, and entertaining messages by 59 of the very
best Christian authors from the FaithWriters.com Writing Challenge.
The weekly Writing Challenge has rapidly grown from its very humble, member-initiated beginnings in 2003, to what it is today--an exceptionally popular contest for Christian writers, with
the best entries each week being published in the quarterly anthologies, such as Come Away with Me.
's8220;The Writing Challenge provides unparalleled opportunities for new Christian writers to hone their skills, receive feedback from their peers, and possibly even see their work
published,'s8221; Mrs. Porter explained. 's8220;Since the Challenge began in 2003, we have had the privilege of publishing hundreds of exceptionally talented Christian writers--people
who, in some cases, may have otherwise never been able to find that first doorway of opportunity. 's8216;Come Away with Me's8217; is an example of this, with its combination of
outstanding authors from our previous books, together with many exciting, new writers that I feel sure will soon become firm favorites with readers.'s8221;
's8216;Come Away with Me's8217; is an invitation to shake off the wintry, heaviness of life, and to enter into the sunshine of God's8217;s everlasting spring.
