Writing Stories that Matter

Fireside Chats

Do you ever wish you could chat with other thoughtful readers about stories that matter?

Every 1-2 months, Josiah invites readers to join Fireside Chats with authors who help readers face the brokenness of the world with confidence. During these hourlong Zoom calls, you’ll be able to hear from insightful storytellers, chime into the conversation, and ask them your own questions.
