I was delighted to be able to watch The Christy Awards again this year. Though I wasn’t there in person – I still cheered and clapped (and cried!) as each winner was called up to the stage. You see these people are special to me. Not only are they amazing authors, they are amazing people. I’ve meet some of them, talked to some online, and have really gotten to know some of them over time. Each and every award was so well deserved. Really. And though I haven’t read every book (there’s just not enough time lol), I have them all on my TBR. The ones I have read – well they are amazing.
Before I share the winners, let me say this. There are so many AMAZING Christian Fiction authors. I can think of a few dozen others who could have easily won. Winning this award does not define an author. I mean yes, it is definitely worth celebrating. But those that didn’t win, or didn’t final – please hear me when I say this. You are talented. You are amazing. You are doing exactly what God has and is telling you to do and at the end of the day THAT is what matters. Do not be discouraged. You will get a reward one day.
And for the winners – congratulations. Your hard work and dedication to the Lord’s work for you has paid off. I am absolutely thrilled that you won! I adored the books I read, and for those I haven’t yet – I have heard nothing but great things about them.
Readers – here are the winners. All of these books are worth your time 🙂 Instead of linking each one individually, I’ve got a link to my Amazon storefront that shows them all. Happy reading!
Have you read any of these novels? Which one is your favorite?
