      Position Overview

      Many readers today are shaped by constant scrolling—formed by short content, endless distraction, and fragmented attention. While they may long to study Scripture deeply, sustained focus and meaningful engagement can feel increasingly difficult. We are seeking a contract writer to serve the “scroll generation” with a book that invites readers into thoughtful, structured, and theologically rich Bible study. This project should address the spiritual and cognitive challenges of digital formation while offering practical pathways toward deeper attentiveness to God’s Word.


      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.

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.
