Upper Room Books Submissions
UPPER ROOM BOOKS guides readers in Christian spiritual formation, inviting them to create daily life with God. Upper Room Books resources speak to the needs of laypersons and clergy, both individuals and small groups. We seek writers who offer insights and guidance on these topics: prayer and other spiritual practices, spiritual formation, Advent and Lent studies, living a faithful Christian life, relationships, healing and wholeness, aging, and creativity and spirituality. Upper Room Books encourage the use of inclusive language in reference to God and humanity. Upper Room Books does not publish fiction or poetry.
