We started Rock theWord: The Rock Church Writers Ministry to tell stories of how God is changing lives in and through the Rock Church in San Diego. Those stories are posted on www.TheRockSanDiego.org, and some appear in the weekly e-newsletter that goes out to thousands of subscribers. We want readers to be encouraged, informed and inspired by what God is doing through His children.
We also gather regularly to support and strengthen each other's gifts, and encourage one another. Everyone who supports the Rock Church's mission is welcome, whether newbies or professional. We hold bimonthly drop-in "Meet & Critique" times after worship service for anyone who wants to talk about their writing, get feedback, or discuss ideas.
We also serve the church by providing writing and editing for ministries, when we can find the volunteers! We work closely with the Rock Church's volunteer photographers too.
We post edited original pieces--fiction, poetry, inspirational writing, testimonies, and opinion--on www.RocktheWord.org. On that site we also include the audio of experts who have given presentations at our skill-building and fellowship meetings.
All in the name of Christ, the Living Word!
