Introducing
a new place to meet, read, and fellowship…
Find books that uplift, authors that inspire, and a whole community of fellow Christians who are looking to encourage and be encouraged.
The last couple of months I have been working hard behind the scenes with my partners Staci Stallings and Heather Bixler as well as an amazing team to start CrossReads – a new resource for both Christian readers and authors. It has been a whirlwind and so much has been accomplished that it literally makes my head spin sometimes. When Staci first approached me with the idea, I said no. Then, just a couple days later, I sensed God confirm I was to be involved. And the rest is now history!
Our prayer is that God would be glorified through CrossReads and that many will be impacted with the message of Christ through the books and resources we share.
==> So today is our launch day!! We are giving away a TON of gifts and I would love to give you one! Would you help support us by entering to win below and sharing about it with your friends?
Thank you for your support!
