My industry expert is… Teodosia Rivera, author of When God Remains: The Hope that Sustains You in Your Darkest Moments. She has been a member of Word Weavers International since 2022. Her writing has been published in her hometown newspaper and in the FBC Writers’ Network.
Alright, let’s head into our content for today… Bold Memoir writing
1 Addressing controversial issues in memoir writing with confidence from a biblical perspective.
Acts 4:13—Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus.
2 Timothy 1:7—For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power* and of love and of a sound mind (NKJV).
Ephesians 6:19—and for me [praying always, v. 18], that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel (NKJV).
2 Balancing conviction with compassion.
- Conviction—persuaded, convicted
- Compassion—sympathetic with concern for others
