American Christian Writers (ACW) Statement of Faith.
We are
specifically an organization of Christian writers who want to meet together
with like-minded individuals for fellowship, writing instruction, and
inspiration toward writing for Christian publications and for secular
publications from a Christian worldview. While we believe secular writer's
groups have value, we seek a place where we can share about Christian
themed ideas without feeling "put down" for making others
present uncomfortable with the Christian ideas reflected in our writing:
We believe
the basics of the Christian faith as described in ACW's Statement of
Faith.
