Finding Your Writing Purpose: David Solomon's Journey with Faith | Episode 210MERCHANDISE SHOP: voices-for-voices.org/3QnokLUSUPPORT VOICES FOR VOICES®:https://www.voicesforvoices.org/shop/p/supporterWhat does it mean to write with divine purpose? David Solomon, accomplished Christian fantasy writer, returns to Voices for VoicesⓇ to share the profound spiritual journey that shapes his storytelling.Solomon reveals how following God's unexpected prompting once led him away from a high-profile project to help prevent a suicide—demonstrating how stories can literally save lives. This powerful example sets the stage for his practical wisdom for writers seeking to make an impact through their work.Through a beautiful metaphor of God as a father waiting on a basketball court, Solomon transforms our understanding of prayer and faith. "Talk to God like he's your best friend, like he's your dad. Just talk to him like a normal person," he advises, making spirituality accessible to everyone.Writers will find particular value in Solomon's five-point framework: find your purpose, identify your audience, resist self-criticism, celebrate completion without pride, and edit with care while remembering that "good is good enough." His frank discussion about perfectionism addresses the paralysis that prevents many writers from ever finishing their work.Most provocatively, Solomon challenges the Christian writing community to embrace diversity, pointing out that when faith-based fiction fails to represent all people, those seeking representation may turn to secular content that contradicts Christian values. Through his projects like "Destiny Halls" and "God's Heroes," he demonstrates how supernatural elements in scripture can inspire fresh approaches to contemporary genres.Ready to find purpose in your writing?
