Oxford Writers Retreat (Advance)
​
"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession,
that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." -1 Peter 2:9
Kingdom Writers Association (KWA) exists to provide authors and "pre-authors" the opportunity to gather together, to be encouraged, equipped, and empowered to produce high-quality material that honors God and reaches the masses for generations to come.
Membership Benefits
Monthly Gatherings
​
Writers write in isolation but need community. KWA provides that community in our monthly gatherings (in-person and online), where writers of all levels meet together, grow in their craft, and build relationships with fellow writers.
​
Conferences & Workshops
​
We have a passion to equip Kingdom scribes to achieve their calling and produce works that honor God and make an impact. To that end, we provide various workshops and creativity conferences to inspire, educate, and empower. Members can take advantage of discounted registration fees.
Advances
At KWA, we don't retreat, we advance! Each year we provide advances to local regions, such as Idyllwild and international locations, such as Oxford, England. These advances provide opportunity to delve deeper into our craft and explore the more that God has for us as creatives. Advances are first come,first serve and members get first notice and priority.

God is amassing an army of Kingdom-minded writers all over the world. KWA has members across the globe who have joined this army. To support this effort, KWA continues to build local Chapters (communities) throughout the U.S. and beyond. We also have online chapters to reach worldwide members who do not have local chapters. These chapters are building community and empowering Christian writers to respond to the scribal calling of God on their lives.
