    About this ebook

    Many Christian writers have embraced their prophetic writing gift full force; yet, very few really know and understand God's "unique" purposes for their call to write. Scribal Purpose gives them an in-depth look into their unique and often overlooked call to ministry. It introduces them to the "three levels" of The Scribal Anointing, and the "10 Reasons Why God Has Called Them to Write."

      Introduction

      If I were to ask you why you write, what would you say? I’ve heard writers say, I write because it is who I am and what I do. I just don’t know what I would do if I couldn’t write. The other answer I’ve heard is: I write to encourage others and to glorify God.

      While these reasons are spoken from the heart of a scribe, they only scratch the surface of God’s plans for us. We are doing a whole lot more than just writing or even encouraging others. Whenever I am asked that question, now that I know and understand God’s purpose for scribal ministry, I often say: "I write because I must.
