Situation:
The Heaven Calling devotional takes the readers on a 365-day personal journey from Genesis through Revelation. With devotionals sequenced canonically and written in the first person as though God is speaking to the reader, this book establishes a panoramic storyline for the biblical narrative. Livingstone was asked to create 365 freshly-written devotionals. Livingstone chose 365 readings from Scripture in canonical sequence and a key verse from each reading around which to focus the devotional. Each devotional is a one-page, 150-word exposition of the daily theme verse. Each devotional ends with a seed prayer to provoke reflection and action.
Solution:
The Livingstone team
- Chose 365 passages of Scripture and key verses that focus on heaven “calling” to the Bible’s characters and, by extension, the Bible’s readers.
- Hired writers to create the 365 devotionals.
- Edited all the devotionals.
- Style tagged the document to prepare for typesetting.
- Typeset the book and employed our quality control procedures.
- Delivered the project on a tight timeline.
