A Community for Christian Authors Writing Stories
Set in the Biblical World
Most author groups are filled with writers from every genre imaginable. While those communities have value, few understand the unique challenges of bringing Scripture, biblical history, and the ancient world to life through story.
Biblical Fiction Authors Network hopes to fill that need.
This private community connects Christian authors writing fiction set during the Old Testament, New Testament, Intertestamental, and Early Church eras. Whether you're published, pursuing publication, or actively working on your first manuscript, you'll find a place to learn, collaborate, and grow alongside others who share your passion for biblical storytelling.
Why Join?
Professional Networking
