About Us
Verse & Vine Publishing isn’t just a hybrid publishing company; we’re a family-owned business dedicated to bringing your stories to life in both print and digital formats because we believe in the power of your voice and the message of Revelation 12:11a (NKJV) – “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.” We support Christian authors who dare to dream and write boldly. We focus on three genres where imagination meets faith: fantasy, science fiction, and narrative nonfiction. These stories—whether fantastical, futuristic, or profoundly real—carry the weight of testimony, the echoes of redemption, and the creativity of the Creator Himself. We believe stories have the power to transform, inspire, and reveal eternal truths. Whether you’re crafting fantastical worlds, exploring the human condition through science fiction, or sharing the raw beauty and pain of real-life narratives, we’re here to help you shape them for His glory.
Our journey began with a passion for storytelling and the desire to empower authors like you. What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to personalized, author-centric guidance throughout the publishing process, ensuring your stories reach the world. We honor your creative rights and visions while providing educational workshops, resources, and community engagement to nurture your creative potential and literary dreams. This commitment is rooted in our understanding of the creative imagination as the divine work of the Holy Spirit moving through believers.
Like C.S. Lewis, we recognize that the Spirit’s inspiration transcends genres, and we celebrate the power of storytelling to convey faith and inspiration in diverse and engaging ways.
If you’re a Christian author looking to explore your creative potential, publish your works, or share life-changing stories, Verse & Vine Publishing is here to join your journey and celebrate your story, your growth, and your success.
Who We Are
At its most foundational, Verse & Vine, is a community of writers who wield our words to serve the Word. This vision finds expression through three tiers of engagement like a pyramid.
We talk a lot about our three tiers in everything we do. On one hand, they are the levels of services we offer, with Tier 1 being the free resources and community which are the foundation and heart of it all. Tier 2 is cultivating the work. Tier 3 is harvesting the fruit—publishing!
But we’ve also been building up our organization internally one tier at a time, so it focuses our efforts. 2024 was a year of focusing on Tier 1, building up our newsletter and free resources and kickstarting this community. Our focus for 2025 is building Tier 2. We will continue to strengthen our foundation of Tier 1 resources and building community, while also now building Tier 2 engagement layers on top. It will be a shift toward deepening community and empowering writers through coaching and courses.
What this looks like will be more in-depth resources, coaching courses, and personalized help for authors to get you to Tier 3, which is ready to publish!
At whatever tier you want to engage, we are so excited you are part of this growing community of writers who serve the Word. Our vision is to be a place that fosters and develops literature that is both fresh and deep, in the vein of the great authors who have come before us, such as J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, T.S. Eliot, and others. Let’s go further up and further in together!
Our Vision
Words that Serve the Word: All tongues are united by one; all words are united in service to the one Word. We seek to sing in tune with the music that moves the heavens and to fall in harmony with the Word that holds all things together. (John 1:1, Col. 1:17, Ps. 19:1-2)
A Collective of Varied Voices: Authors shine best when they share what God has placed within their hearts; we shine together in our diversity, united by the one Word. (1 Pet. 4:10, Rom. 12:6, 1 Cor. 12:12, Rev. 7:9-10)
The Marriage of Literary & Genre: We are developing literature that is both rooted in the literary tradition and relevant to our culture and time. (Matt. 13:52, Eccles. 12:10, 2 Tim. 3:16-17)
Bearing Fruit & Multiplying Together: We’re all in this together, and our successes open doors for the success of others. We want to see our works contribute to the coming of His kingdom on earth. (Gen. 1:28; Eph. 4:16; Col. 1:6, Matt. 6:10)
Our Values
Generosity: In God’s generous kingdom, it’s always a win-win when we give in love. (Luke 6:38, Acts 20:35)
Authenticity & Honesty: We don’t put up a front. We seek to tell the truth, no matter how ugly or difficult it is. (Eph. 4:25, Prov. 27:17)
Care: Love is all that matters. We strive to do everything in love and care for the well-being of others. We wield our words with care and consideration, knowing that they hold the power of death and life. (1 Cor. 16:14, Prov. 18:21)
Understanding & Open-Mindedness: We keep our ears and our minds open. We listen to understand. There is depth beneath people’s words, and we seek to get to the heart and the why. (Prov. 2:2, 20:5)
Your Story Matters
At Verse & Vine, we believe your story is part of God’s larger narrative—a story of grace, struggle, and redemption. We’re not just a publishing service; we’re a community dedicated to shaping stories with eternal impact. Whether your words transport readers to a distant world, explore the unknown future, or give voice to lived experiences, we’re here to help you write with purpose and power.
What sets us apart is that we don’t just publish—we nurture voices that speak truth and reflect the Creator’s heart. Every resource, coaching session, and book we produce is another step toward building a body of work that strengthens faith, challenges minds, and touches hearts. Your story matters because it carries the weight of something much bigger than yourself.
Together, let’s craft stories that stir hearts, spark imaginations, and glorify God with every word.
