Welcome, Readers!

Comics & Word is a new publication we launched in 2023. It has taken months to develop this special project. C&W is a Christian newspaper with a twist -- much of its content is comic strips and panels.  But that doesn't mean we don't take what we do seriously.

​

C&W is about the encouragement and equipping of believers, as well as leading others to Christ. And that includes getting a good laugh in and following a great story.

​

OUR UPCOMING PRINT EDITIONS will be our main venue for getting stories and art out to readers.

​

THIS WEBPAGE will be our overflow venue. We will be receiving a lot of material, both articles and comics. Not all of it will fit into our newspaper at this time. This page will be housing much of our surplus material.

​

Articles will be by several authors, including some well-known ones. Gloria Gaither is a renowned Gospel music songwriter, author, speaker, editor, and academic. Together with her husband Bill, she wrote "Because He Lives" and many other Gospel songs. Also joining us will be John Eldredge, Christian author, outdoorsman, counselor and lecturer. He is known for doing men's conferences and authoring books such as "Wild At Heart," "Epic," Fathered By God," "Get Your Life Back" and "Resilient."

​

Also joining us is Alison Neihardt, a local child therapist who has been in practice since 2008. She has her practice Helping Kids Counseling Services in Traverse City and Kalkaska. She works with children, teens, and their parents to deal with a wide variety of issues. She has been writing since 2019. Her books can be found on Amazon.com and in local bookstores. 

Other writers will also be sending in material from time to time.

​

The list of comics we will feature has not yet been finalized. It will include both mainstream and Christian comics for your enjoyment. We will let you know as soon as this is available.

Keep in mind, we are a ministry, not a for-profit newspaper. Any donation we would be willing to give would help us greatly in keeping this going. You can donate to our GoFundMe page at  https://gofund.me/4d436f84 .  Or contact us directly with other ways to help fund our project at  betweenthepinesmin@gmail.com .

Thank you for checking our website out. May the Lord bless your day. We look forward to your return!
