What regions do you serve?<\/strong><\/h3>

Our primary focus is places where there are few Christians and\/or little Christian publishing activity. We encourage Christians to create meaningful literature for the general reader and see the written word as a missionary, able to minister to readers in multiple places at once. You can review our Statement of Faith here<\/a>.<\/p>

How do I apply for training? <\/strong><\/h3>

We recommend exploring our webinar library<\/a> and YouTube<\/a> channel first to familiarize yourself with some of our past training content, and signing up to attend our free webinars<\/a> each month.<\/p>

Our priority is to offer training where we have not done so before, and where such training for Christians is scarce or unavailable.<\/p>

We typically offer in-person training in places where we already have relationships. If you\u2019d like to explore this possibility further, you can consider submitting your expression of interest through this form<\/a>. While we are not able to respond to all requests, we\u2019ll be in touch if your request is one we may be able to meet and aligns with our vision, mission and values. Please note our capacity is limited and most of our trainers are volunteers.<\/p>

Do you offer funding or scholarships for training?<\/strong><\/h3>

While MAI offers various awards that are sponsored by generous donors, these are not given on the basis of solicitation. Award recipients tend to have a close ongoing relationship with MAI, and contribute significantly to our vision and mission as they serve in writing and publishing ministry in their particular context.<\/p>

If I can\u2019t get to a conference or workshop, is there a way for me to access MAI training online?<\/strong><\/h3>

Webinars are recorded and available through our webinar library<\/a>. You make the most of our webinars by participating live by registering to attend<\/a>, as about a third of the time of each webinar is dedicated to questions so that the training is responsive to attendees\u2019 needs and concerns.<\/p>

Unfortunately, the nature of much of our workshops and training doesn\u2019t lend itself to an online form such as a video. Our face-to-face training might also take place in sensitive locations and where information is shared with a trusted audience for mutual support, learning and encouragement\u2014and thus not available online.<\/p>

We recommend you sign up to our monthly newsletter\u00a0Community Update<\/a>\u00a0to receive updates on upcoming webinars, online courses and training videos as these become available.<\/p>

I\u2019m a new writer\u2014where should I start?<\/strong><\/h3>

Sign up to our various free publications<\/a> for Christian writers, editors and publishers. You\u2019ll be the first to find out about training opportunities and ways to connect with others.<\/p>

Our\u00a0\u7f51\u7edc\u7814\u8ba8\u4f1a\u56fe\u4e66\u9986<\/a>\u00a0is a great place to start exploring our training. You\u2019ll find free online to help you grow as a writer and be encouraged by the skills and experiences shared by other Christian communicators.<\/p>

You can also join our monthly\u00a0\u5728\u7ebf\u4f5c\u5bb6\u7fa4<\/a>, where you\u2019ll meet Christian writers from around the world! We discuss different topics to level up in our skills and pray for each other.\u00a0<\/p>

Can I send you my book?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>

While we love hearing about new Christian books, our team is remote and without a central physical office space. This makes receiving books difficult. We do not recommend that books are sent to our PO Box.<\/p>

Can MAI help me publish my first book?<\/strong><\/h3>

MAI is a global community. In that sense, yes we can. You can meet others who are engaged in publishing at our events, upskill through our training and collaborate with others through our online communities. Our\u00a0\u793e\u533a\u76ee\u5f55<\/a>\u00a0is a good place for you to find a particular Christian author or publisher.<\/p>

However, MAI does not accept unsolicited manuscripts. When we do create\u00a0books<\/a>, they are written, edited and published in collaboration with our community\u2014such as a publishing house whose vision aligns with ours.<\/p>

I’d like to volunteer as a trainer or mentor. How do I sign up?<\/strong><\/h3>

We\u2019d recommend watching through some of our\u00a0past webinars<\/a>\u00a0first so that you can get an idea of the style of our training. (Not that we\u2019re against new ways of doing things, but you can learn from other trainers too.)<\/p>

Then we\u2019d love for you to come join one of our\u00a0webinars live<\/a>. This will give you an opportunity to interact with those who seek MAI training, ask questions and learn from our existing experienced facilitators.<\/p>

Training others in ministry is a spiritual work and needs God-given wisdom, guidance and empowering. Pray and talk to mentors, perhaps even your church leadership. After that, reach out to our team at mai@maiglobal.org<\/a> or through our Volunteer form<\/a> to let us know!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
