2. Conference outcomes
All this week and next - Christian Today is publishing 2020 Award articles - this we do every year - this is why so many photos are taken of those milling around during the conference - we utilize innumerable photos in these articles.
ZOOM group - Peter Brookshaw sent in -
explanation - Zoom was on from 9.45am through to lunch. Then resumed at 3.50pm for the Awards. People were coming 'on and off' Zoom. Then after lunch some of those on Zoom connected together themselves for a discussion fellowship period -
this is Peter Brookshaw's summation below.
During the young writer's conference, we had the chance for all those tuning in online, to meet for a small group discussion. Those attending came from many parts of Australia and New Zealand, and even Jamaica and Nigeria! We discussed our passion for writing and encouraging others in their faith in Christ. Some noteworthy tips for communication were shared including:
We had opportunity to richly and deeply bless each other through words of encouragement and some prayer. Pete Brookshaw shared a Scripture from Romans chapter 15, verse 4, as a blessing, 'For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.' Finally, we agree with this: May our writing bring hope! May our writing inspire others! And may our writing lead other people to Jesus Christ!

Some noteworthy tips for communication were shared including:
- Keeping a focus on the Word of God
- Understanding the audience to which you write
- Having a clear aim in what you are communicating
- Finding ways to share our faith so as to connect with the context we are communicating with
- Being organised and obedient in writing regularly and systematically
We had opportunity to richly and deeply bless each other through words of encouragement and some prayer. Pete Brookshaw shared a Scripture from Romans chapter 15, verse 4, as a blessing, 'For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.'
