We live in an age where it's never been easier to be a writer! Resources, opportunities, and platforms now abound for people to make an impact through the written word. How might creative writing offer fresh and interesting approaches to mission in our time? What can we learn from previous writers about the use of story? And how can we embrace these approaches whilst staying faithful to the Gospel? In this episode, Aaron and Andy, who both recently published books, discuss what inspires them to write, what tips they've picked up along the way, and how you too might begin to influence others through your use of words, whether or not you'd call yourself a writer.
