📖 A little honesty, a little patience, and a publishing update. 💗

Our October 2026 issue of Holy Calling Magazine is taking a little longer to launch than we originally anticipated.

We've continued running into technical publishing challenges with Amazon KDP, and rather than rush the process or compromise the quality of this issue, we're exploring a different path.

✨ We're now working toward publishing through Bookvault!

Is this the timeline we planned? No. Is it frustrating? Absolutely.

But sometimes faithful stewardship means being willing to adjust the process without abandoning the purpose.

We're committed to getting this issue into your hands, and we're grateful for the patience and encouragement you've shown us along the way.

We don't have a confirmed new launch date just yet, but we'll share an update as soon as we have reliable information.

Thank you for supporting Holy Calling Magazine and the Christian creatives who help bring each issue to life. 💗

📖 The mission hasn't changed. We're simply navigating a different path to publication.

10/11/2026

📖☕ Spending part of this Sunday continuing through Romans, and Romans 1:2 is such a quiet reminder that God is never scrambling to figure out what comes next.

“(Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)” — Romans 1:2 KJV

Yesterday's uncertainty does not make God uncertain. Tomorrow's unanswered questions do not catch Him unprepared.

Paul begins Romans by pointing his readers toward something God had already promised through His prophets. The Gospel wasn't God's emergency response when humanity went wrong. His redemptive plan had been promised beforehand in Scripture.

And maybe some of us need that reminder today.

We can become so consumed with asking, “God, what are You doing?” that we forget to return to what He has already said.

When you're confused...go back to Scripture.
When you're waiting...go back to Scripture.
When your plans change...go back to Scripture.
When you don't know your next step...go back to Scripture.

Your feelings may change. Circumstances certainly will. God's Word does not.

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” — Psalm 119:89 KJV

💕 So here's your gentle challenge for Scripture Sunday...before you scroll for someone else's encouragement today, open your Bible and let God's Word speak first.

👉 Read Romans 1:2 for yourself, then tell me in the comments...what promise or passage of Scripture are you holding onto in this season?

And SAVE this post for the next time you need the reminder to return to what God has already said. 📖

Bring your Bible. Bring your coffee. And bring the version of you that actually showed up this morning. ☕📖💗

You don't have to have the perfect quiet time. You don't have to know exactly where God is leading you. And you definitely don't have to have your life, motherhood, business, ministry, or calling completely figured out before you open your Bible.

You just have to come.

Every Monday + Wednesday at 10:00 AM CST, I'm going LIVE on TikTok for Coffee + Called Bible Study—a place where we can open the Word together, talk honestly about what God is teaching us, and figure out how Scripture applies to the lives we're actually living.

No pretending.
No pressure to have the “right” answer.
Just coffee, community, Scripture, and women learning to faithfully walk out what God has called them to do. ☕✨

Because sometimes we spend so much time asking God for the whole plan that we miss what He's asking us to be faithful with today.

So grab your favorite mug and come study with me. 💗

☕ Mondays + Wednesdays
⏰ 10:00 AM CST
📱 LIVE on TikTok

💬 What are you drinking during Bible study...coffee, tea, water, or something else? Tell me below!

Working behind the scenes today and thinking about how many incredible Christian authors have a message worth sharing…but aren't sure how to get that message beyond their own social media feed.

Visibility doesn't have to mean chasing virality.

Sometimes it simply means being willing to show up, tell your story, share what you've learned, and give new people an opportunity to discover your work.

That's exactly why we created the Author Visibility Path. 📖✨

For just $96, you receive 3 opportunities to increase your visibility:

🎙️ Podcast Interview — $47 value
Share your story, book, message, and calling on Christian Authors with Marilyn Jeanne Designs.

📰 Business Card Magazine Ad — $79 value
Put your book, business, ministry, or author brand in front of Holy Calling Magazine readers.

✍️ Magazine Article Submission
Share your own story, experience, or expertise in an upcoming issue of Holy Calling Magazine.

The podcast interview and business card ad alone total $126 when purchased separately, and the Author Visibility Path gives you those opportunities plus the magazine article submission for $96.

But here's the gentle challenge...are you asking God to expand the reach of your message while being willing to walk through the opportunities He places in front of you?

Visibility isn't about making yourself important. It's about faithfully stewarding the message you've been given and being willing to let people actually find it.

If you've been saying, “I need to get my book in front of more people,” perhaps it's time to take an intentional next step. 🤍

Before there was Holy Calling Magazine.
Before the podcast.
Before the MJD Bookshelf.
Before so many of the things Marilyn Jeanne Designs has become…

there was this book. 💗

Women Who Lead: The Future of Entrepreneurship was the very first book I was ever published in. I was one of 30 women who said yes to putting part of our stories on paper...and looking back now, I don't think I fully understood what that first “yes” would lead to.

Isn't that how God works sometimes?

We want the entire business plan. The five-year vision. The confirmation that everything is going to work before we're willing to move.

And sometimes God simply gives us the next step.

This book is filled with stories from women who have faced adversity, built resilience, discovered their strength, and stepped into entrepreneurship. It explores what can happen when women stop allowing their hardest chapters to disqualify them and instead use what they've learned to build something meaningful.

Its mantra is, “Embrace Your Potential. Become the Author of Your Own Story.”

That hits a little differently now.

Because that first published chapter became part of a much bigger story for me...one that was still being written when I couldn't see where any of it was going.

So here's my gentle challenge for you...don't despise the small beginning.

You don't have to know where the first yes will lead before you're obedient enough to give it.

📖 Women Who Lead: The Future of Entrepreneurship is available on the MJD Bookshelf:

Feeling incredibly grateful this Faithful Friday. Marilyn Jeanne Designs has been nominated in SIX categories in the 2026 CommunityVotes Kansas City awards:

✨ Best Digital Marketing
✨ Best Graphic Design
✨ Best Marketing & Advertisement
✨ Best Promotional Products
✨ Best Social Media Marketing
✨ Best Web Design

Six. 😭

As a business owner, it can be incredibly easy to keep staring at what's next (the next client, project, goal, launch, number, or milestone) without stopping long enough to recognize what God has already allowed us to steward.

So today, I'm stopping.

Not because an award determines the value of this business. It doesn't. But because I'm genuinely grateful for every author, entrepreneur, ministry leader, client, reader, podcast guest, contributor, and supporter who has trusted MJD with a piece of their vision.

“Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” — 1 Corinthians 4:2 KJV

That's still the goal.
Not recognition over obedience.
Not awards over service.
Not growth at the expense of faithfulness.

Just keep faithfully stewarding what's in our hands, and leave the results with God. 🤍

Voting is officially OPEN! 🗳️

👉 If MJD has designed something for you, marketed alongside you, published your words, helped your business become more visible, encouraged your calling (or you've simply enjoyed following what we're building) and you genuinely feel led to support us, we'd be incredibly grateful for your vote.

Vote for Marilyn Jeanne Designs here: https://kansascity.communityvotes.com/n/1418936-marilyn-jeanne-designs (Link in bio)

And whether you vote or simply continue cheering us on: thank you for being part of this. Truly.

If you could sit down with your younger self for five minutes, what would you tell her? 💗

Would you tell her to stop trying so hard to be liked? To trust God even when she can't see what He's doing? To walk away sooner? To dream bigger? To forgive herself?

Or maybe you'd simply wrap your arms around that younger version of you and tell her, “You're going to make it.”

So much of who we become is shaped by the things we survived, the lessons we learned, the prayers God answered differently than we expected, and the wisdom we wish we'd had a little sooner.

That's part of the heart behind Dear Daughters.

Women looking back at what they've walked through and choosing to say, “Daughter, here's what I want you to know.”

Today, I want to hear from you.

💬 Finish this sentence in the comments:

Dear younger me, I wish you knew ____________________.

Don't overthink it. Your answer can be one word or an entire paragraph.

You never know when something God taught you the hard way might be exactly what another woman needs to hear today. 💗

🎙️🤍 Spending this Throwback Thursday revisiting Episode 50, and this conversation still makes me stop and think.

What am I building that will actually matter in eternity?

In Episode 50 of Christian Authors with Marilyn Jeanne Designs, I sat down with Brazilian-American author Dilene Leila Swofford for a conversation about Living With Purpose and her book, Your Soul Will Live Forever.

We talked about the encounter with Jesus that changed the direction of Dilene's life, her writing journey, pursuing God-given purpose, and learning to loosen our grip on the success, possessions, and accomplishments that won't follow us into eternity.

And that's a challenging question for me as a business owner, and maybe for you, too...am I asking God to bless everything I'm building…or am I allowing Him to decide what is worth building in the first place?

Our books matter. Our businesses matter. Our ministries matter. The work God gives us to steward matters.

But none of it was ever meant to become more important than knowing and following Him.

“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” — Matthew 6:21 KJV

🤍 Today, take a minute to honestly examine what has been receiving your time, attention, and heart lately.

🎧 Then listen to this Throwback Thursday clip from Episode 50 and tell me in the comments...what does “living with purpose” look like in your life right now?

Some stories are difficult to write because you had to live them first. 💗

I had the honor of being one of 90 co-authors featured in Rising Through the Pain: Prayers and Devotionals for Joy Restoration...an anthology filled with real stories of grief, trauma, loss, healing, faith, and the God who meets us in the middle of it all.

And I think that's something we need to talk about more.

Following God doesn't mean we won't experience painful chapters. Sometimes faith looks less like having everything together and more like whispering, “Lord, I'm still here. Help me take the next step.”

Rising Through the Pain brings together women and men who have walked through loss, violence, illness, heartache, and other incredibly difficult seasons...and chose to tell the truth about what God did in the midst of them.

Inside you'll find personal testimonies, Scripture-rooted devotionals, prayers, and encouragement for the days when healing feels painfully slow.

If you're walking through a hard season right now, I hope you'll remember this...pain may be part of your story, but it doesn't get to write the ending. 💗

God is still present.
God is still faithful.
And there can still be joy on the other side.

☕📖 Feeling a little reflective today for National Random Acts of Poetry Day.

So I went back into the Christian Authors with Marilyn Jeanne Designs Podcast archives and pulled out this conversation with poet and longtime pastor Ken Hinkley. 🤍

After more than 30 years pastoring small rural churches in western Maine, Ken has spent decades listening...to people, their stories, and to God. That same heart comes through in his poetry collection, Modern Psalms.

These aren't poems pretending that following Jesus means we never experience doubt, loneliness, uncertainty, or difficult emotions. They're poems written in the middle of those very human moments, and pointed back toward the Word of God.

And maybe that's a reminder worth carrying today...we don't have to pretend everything is fine to bring it before God.

The Psalms themselves show us praise, grief, fear, repentance, questions, thanksgiving, and hope. Whatever season you're walking through, keep bringing your heart back to the One who knows it completely.

“Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us.” — Psalm 62:8 KJV

🎧 Listen to this throwback from Ken's episode, then explore Modern Psalms and his other work here: https://www.itnpublishing.com/books/kenhinkley
