Christian publishing is enormous, consistent, and community-driven. General Christian living is competitive, but devotionals, women's faith books, and Christian self-help have accessible entry conditions for authors with genuine faith and writing ability. Christian fiction (clean romance, Amish fiction) is a massive separate sub-category.
