“Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run who readeth it.” KJV Habakkuk 2:2
The Christian writer takes to his/her computer with ideas from many resources. My husband and I love to travel. We went to VA Beach several years ago with our son and his family.
We climbed the Cape Henry Lighthouse, one of the oldest historic lighthouses. This was a topic for an assignment I wrote for Warner Press publishers.
One of the first magazine articles I had published was written after an interview. While listening to the radio, I heard a testimony and thought it would make a great magazine article. I called the radio station and received permission to interview the individual. Starlight magazine later published her story.
Ideas for magazine articles are everywhere, and the periodicals to write for are just as plentiful. Do you have a personal experience story to share? Or, if you don’t have any material from your own experience to write about, consider interviewing interesting people around you and writing their stories.
What magazine do you read on a consistent basis? Your familiarity with these publications and the types of articles they publish give you some needed background. Study these magazines and know what kind of articles they publish. Take time to cut out those articles you may need for later resource material.
Some of the magazines I have written for are Pentecostal Evangel, The Upper Room, Devo'zine, Light & Life, Pathways to God, and Woman's World.

I read The Upper Room, The Writer, Light & Life, Thriving Family, Pockets, Clubhouse Jr., Jack and Jill, Significant Living and In Touch. I too am inspired by conversations on the radio or in person and have written articles from follow-up interviews. It is awesome how God brings His people together for His purposes.
