Position Overview
Many believers are rediscovering the richness of the Church calendar yet lack clarity on its biblical foundations and practical relevance for everyday life. We are seeking a contract writer to develop a theologically grounded book on the Church calendar and liturgical living, whether focused on a single season or the full liturgical year. This project may take a historical, theological, or highly practical approach—but should clearly connect the rhythms of the Church year to spiritual formation in ordinary life.
Scope of Work
- Research, outline, and write a full-length manuscript (approximately 45,000–75,000 words)
- Collaborate closely with the editorial team through multiple rounds of revision
- Ensure theological alignment with The Daily Grace Co.’s doctrinal commitment
Commitment
Contract, per-project basis.
Compensation
Compensation is determined based on project scope and complexity.
Additional Information
Contractors are engaged based on the needs of specific projects and are not guaranteed ongoing or full-time work. Participation in meetings, workshops, or collaborative sessions may be requested depending on the project timeline.
Why Publish with The Daily Grace Co.?
With over a decade of publishing experience, The Daily Grace Co. creates Christ-centered resources marked by theological depth, biblical faithfulness, and practical encouragement. We value thoughtful, faithful writers and partner closely from concept development through launch. Our goal is not simply to publish books—but to serve readers with resources that meet real needs and help them treasure Christ.
