welcome to ap creations hub on substack and my🙏prayer for you

There's a new look here and it's fairly exciting!

Hello! And welcome to AP Creations Hub or Anna K Payne, the author, on Substack. Think of this as a fun refresh — a mini makeover, if you will — as I set up newsletters and possibly courses on this new platform. I am so excited about the new features in this newsletter-centric place and can’t wait to grow our community here.

First and foremost, if you receive this email, great news: you are subscribed! You will continue to receive a free newsletter from me every week with my prayers for you, just like before. Please add this email address to your contacts or mark it as “not spam” to make sure it reaches you.

Here is the AP Creations Hub history: Last year, I officially retired from my self-employed Web Consultant gig (yes, I still help them occasionally). This last year, I’ve continued to publish new books, cozy mysteries, children’s books, devotionals, prayer guides, and books by my Mom and Grandma. My published book list is getting longer, but my readers are growing smaller. I decided to work harder to get the message out.

So many of my current readers have stayed with me from one platform to the next and read every newsletter. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I know the Lord God has called me to spread His Good News, which is Jesus Christ. My mission is to inspire hope, encourage others, love richly, and listen to God for my next steps. I am asking for your support. This platform is new for me, and I’m sure it's new for many of you! 

If you enjoy the newsletters, prayer guides, and books, please introduce me to some of your friends. Just forward them any newsletter so they can become free subscribers. I don’t plan to become a paid subscription, but I might add my courses here, and some of those would be low-cost subscriptions.

By subscribing to AP Creations Hub, you will receive my weekly newsletter, which includes my prayers for you. You can also join the AP Creations Hub community here on Substack (this part I’m really excited about) and have the ability to comment on every newsletter.

Genesis

The Seekers Series Begins

They'd do anything to seek the truth . . . The Order will do anything to stop them

A Christian Dystopian Epic- Prequel to the upcoming debut of The Seekers Series

Where would you turn if your very existence relied on uncovering the most profound mysteries of the universe? Father Curtis, Priest of the Order of the Eternal, seeks solace in the serenity of his secluded parish, sheltered from the oppressive regime's grasp.

But when he is unjustly branded a heretic, he is forced to embark on a harrowing journey for survival. In the process, he discovers that the very foundation of his beliefs has been built upon falsehoods. Amidst the chaos of his escape, he is confronted with the stark realization that the world he once trusted is a labyrinth of deception orchestrated by the tyrannical forces of the Order.

His own fate and humanity's hang in the balance as he battles to find the truth about himself, the Order, and Creation in a world where seeking the truth is a capital offense. Get the Download—The link is in the title above.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. I appreciate your support and your participation.

Lord, Thank you for my reader. Thank You for coming into the world as her Savior. Your overpowering love and kindness toward her creates a hedge of protection around her.

Lord God, thank You that she can do nothing to earn her salvation and Your love. You came to save her because of Your mercy toward her. This is her new beginning. She walks with You for the rest of her days and long after. You made this possible through Your Holy Spirit.

Lord God, thank You that she is entirely new in You. Your Spirit is poured out in abundance in her through Jesus Christ.

Lord, You are our Great and Mighty King. You fight for us every day. We trust in You. We rest in You, knowing You are faithful. Help us to be grateful and praise Your name, Almighty God. Be glorified through her. In Jesus's name, Amen.

Titus 3:4-6

⁴ But then something happened: God our Savior and His overpowering love and kindness for humankind entered our world; ⁵ He came to save us. It’s not that we earned it by doing good works or righteous deeds; He came because He is merciful. He brought us out of our old ways of living to a new beginning through the washing of regeneration; and He made us completely new through the Holy Spirit, ⁶ who was poured out in abundance through Jesus the Anointed, our Savior.

Have a blessed week!
