Tips From the Editor
Pure in Heart is looking for creative work that is appropriate for all ages.
We like silly and fun, and we also like serious. We like depth. We want work that engages with kids and teens without talking down to them.
We especially like work with Christian themes. Some examples of Christian themes include: good versus evil, a retelling of a Bible story, doing the right thing even when it’s hard, redemption, hope, awe of God and His creation, brotherly love, a creative look at biblical people, a righteous heart shining against the backdrop of a fallen world, and much more. Feel free to get creative and surprise us.
