Beth Lueders

It’s not Beth’s talent or satisfied publishers
that set her apart from others . . .

It’s her determination. It’s that ability and willingness to work hard—to fine-tune manuscripts until they are just what authors and editors need. Interrogated by Communist soldiers and threatened at knifepoint while on assignment, Beth knows how to write exceptional copy while enduring intense pressures. It’s her tenacity as a wordsmith that doesn’t let her settle for the mundane.

It’s her experience. An award-winning journalist who has documented stories in more than twenty countries, Beth connects well with people from a variety of cultures and life experiences. Logging nearly thirty years as a professional writer, Beth has helped compose the gritty and transforming stories of hundreds of people from corporate executives and music artists to Olympic athletes and pastors. For more than a decade, Beth was the “silent voice” in many published works for Bill and Vonette Bright, founders of Campus Crusade for Christ International.

Beth has collaborated with or interviewed the following individuals: Jill Briscoe, Stuart Briscoe, Gail Devers, Natalie Grant, Cynthia Heald, Victoria Jackson, Brennan Manning, Elisa Morgan, Luis Palau, Point of Grace, Wesley Stafford, Thelma Wells, and Denise Williams.

It’s her commitment to details. Authors, editors, and publishers need a collaborator who delivers superb quality in every manuscript. Beth respects edits and thrives on meeting deadlines. With all of life’s daily pressures, the last thing an editor needs is an author who submits mediocre work way past due dates. Beth is committed to helping authors excel…one well-written word at a time.

An agriculture and journalism honors graduate of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, Beth has written and edited several books. Her collaboration books include:
• Q & A with Point of Grace (Howard Publishing, 2005)
• Celebrations of Faith (Cook, 2001)
• Women of Faith Study Bible (Zondervan, 2001)
• The Life Promises Bible (Zondervan, 2000)

A former editor for the Christian women’s magazine, Clarity, and frequent contributor to Aspire and Virtue magazines, Beth is particularly adept at writing with and for women. Her diverse writing topics include: addictions, AIDS/HIV, adoption, anxiety, body image, commitment, dating, death, depression, evangelism/missions, finances, grief, health/nutrition, homosexuality, leadership, marriage, parenting, relationships, safety, sexual abuse, singleness, stress, suicide, time management, and tragedy.

Beth lives in Colorado and enjoys biking, hiking, and sipping lattés over long conversations with family and friends.
