Roadmapping Your Story: A Recap of MRM’s First Workshop

One of our BIG goals for 2023 is to bring community off-line, to create in-person events and spaces for real connection and community.

MRM’s “Roadmapping Your Story” workshop Saturday, March 25, our first in-person event, was a wonderful time of prayer, learning, and encouragement . . . that almost didn’t happen. Friday night brought storms to the area, and Saturday morning we woke to news that the venue didn’t have power and the roads leading to the venue were closed! But God . . .

MRM Project Feature: The 320 Life Publishing Project

Wendy Pope is an incredible Bible teacher, with four traditionally published books, multiple online Bible studies, an annual conference, and more. She has also been our client and friend for over a decade, and we have had the privilege of supporting each book launch, walking alongside her through the birth of her Word Up Ministries nonprofit, and creating multiple website redesigns for her over the years. So when Wendy asked for our help publishing her new Bible study, The 320 Life, of course we were honored and thrilled to be a part of this ministry milestone for her too.

Melissa Mashburn is a “Jill of all trades” and has spent the better part of her adult life in some form of ministry or marketing role, or both at the same time. When Melissa joined our team a few years ago, we began chatting about an idea she had for a book on godly friendships. But, when Melissa actually began writing this manuscript, God changed the direction of her words and message, and the end result was a beautiful, deeply heartfelt guidebook for women leaders in ministry.

MRM Project Feature: This Too Shall Pass Publishing Project

This Too Shall Pass is first-time author Kaitlyn Scott’s personal story of her journey with chronic illness. In the book, she shares encouragement through the lessons God has taught her on this journey, along with real, raw struggles and tests of her faith. Working with such personal “works of heart” are as rewarding as they are delicate, and our team does our very best to handle both the manuscript and the author with care throughout the entire publishing process.

Publishing a client’s message or story is always exciting for our team. Add to that the pleasure of working with not one, but two authors who happen to be sweet sisters and who have worked on this story for over seven years, and it immediately feels like an overwhelming (and fun!) privilege to be a part of their journey. Market Refined Publishing worked with authors Maureen Hartson and Shannon Coe to publish their first Christian fantasy novel this summer, and we couldn’t be more thrilled!
