Wichita Kansas Christian Devotional Author And Speaker Kristi Burchfiel Chosen As One Of '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading'

SHALLOTTE, NC, January 17, 2013 (Press-News.org) Christian devotional author and speaker Kristi Burchfiel has been chosen as one of '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading'. Her honors came as the result of an appearance on The Authors Show in which she discussed her Christian devotional series of books.

"Being chosen as one of the 50 Greater Writers You Should Be Reading for 2012," Burchfiel stated, "is such an honor for me! I am especially thrilled because the decision was made by the fans. I appreciate all the support my readers have given me over the years, especially taking the time to vote for me to be included in this award."

Kristi Burchfiel's Christian devotionals contain short daily devotions that are designed to focus on one truth from a verse in the Bible and then lead the reader in a response that they can take with them and apply throughout the day. The books include an introduction to how to use the guides as well as background information.

"As a Christian devotional author," Burchfiel continued, " I am passionate about sharing the hope and encouragement of Jesus Christ with others. Being recognized along with so many other wonderful authors who write in so many genres is such an honor. Many thanks to God and to my wonderful fans who helped make this possible."

Kristi also writes applicable Bible Studies. Her works include 'Without Regrets: A Study Of Ecclesiastes,' 'The Decay Within: A Study of Amos,' and an ebook series entitled 'The Daily Devotional Series'. Several years ago, God led Kristi Burchfiel through some difficult times in her personal life. Only by studying the truths found in the Bible did she find the answers she needed to get her life back on track. She now works daily to continue putting those truths into practice. She is passionate about studying the Bible and invites others to share in the peace of God through the truths found in God's word. As a Christian devotional author, she believes in living in the world while living out the Word.

"A Christian devotional," Kristi stated, "is more than just words on a page, and more than reading through Bible study topics. A true Christian devotional takes bible study topics and bible tools and looks at the truths found in God's word and then shows people how to apply those truths to their life. Just knowing the word of God is not enough - we must live it out."

In addition to writing Christian devotionals, Kristi speaks on a variety of different topics including sections from her Bible study books, devotionals, life lessons, personal testimony and the book publishing process. She has been the keynote speaker for women's conferences, led workshops during all day events, and delivered the message in worship services and Sunday School classes. She has also spoken with literacy groups and has appeared numerous times in interviews for websites, radio, and television. She also provides an online devotional for the day and other Bible tools.
