Working with my Church!
I wasn’t sure where to post this, so apologies if this isn’t the correct place.
I’m writing a cozy mystery series. I would call them “Christian-adjacent,” as the main characters go to church, sing in the choir together, etc.
But I felt convicted to do more. So I contacted my church to see if I could put a link/QR code at the end of the books with a note to the effect of, “If you are interested in learning more about what it means to be a Christian, click here.” The link would go to a special landing page at the church and then they will send out some materials on becoming a Christian and on how to find a Bible based church in their area.
I wasn’t sure how they would respond. For one thing, our lead pastor writes books and I don’t want to seem like I’m competing with him. We’re also in the middle of a capital building campaign and I know everyone is really busy.
BUT they are very excited about it! They’ve already hooked me up with their webmaster who will build the landing page, even though it’s not coming out until next spring.
Anyway, I just wanted to share because I’m really excited about this!
