“As an editor on the project, I expected to be dealing with lots of words on paper. I was unsure if I was good enough of a writer myself to tell others how to write their stories. In reality, I was dealing with people, their own insecurities and their vulnerability. My role turned out to be so much more about listening to the authors, encouraging them, sharing their struggles and celebrating their victories than about editing text. They didn’t need to hear how to write, all they really needed was to hear that they should write, that their stories matter, that they matter! I feel humbled and honored to have been allowed to witness the raw state of the stories God has written in the authors’ lives. Through these close encounters, I have not only gotten to know people around me better but I have also experienced God’s powerful touch on their lives first hand.”
