Lifted by Love ♥️
I have some exciting news to share!
I am one of four authors collaborating on a special new children’s anthology called Lifted by Love, published by Read Believe Grow Publishing.
What’s Lifted by Love?
Lifted by Love is a collection of heartwarming animal stories inspired by biblical truths that help children discover courage, kindness, belonging, and God’s unfailing love. Through stories, we hope to remind children that they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.
You can read about each author below…
But for right now, Lifted by Love is just a dream. This book doesn’t exist….
Yet.
Every great story begins with someone who believes; and with your support, these stories will come to life and inspire children to discover their purpose, courage, belonging, and hope through Christ.
The Kickstarter begins July 12th. You’ll find out more by following me on Instagram at @karenfergusonauthor or click the link below and I’ll keep you updated.
Let’s create stories together that point children to Jesus.
