Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.

I want to share a positive experience regarding a businessTo have been accepted by CFP was a true blessing.They are efficient, very professional and capitalized on my needs as a new Author guiding me through the many steps in publishing my recent bookThey are to be commended for their hard laborMy favorite part of the processing was to view my cover design for it resembled heaven which is where I'm near every week serving as a Flight Attendant! My communication was incredible, even though I am constantly on the run with my flight assignments every month.My Publication Specialist was a valuable gift with her patience, input and motivation to keep me informed with each procedureShe was a dear angel in guiding my feeble efforts in the proper directionOf course CFP not only exceeded my expectations, yet lifted my spiritsThey granted me an opportunity to smile, rejoice and celebrate my long awaited dreamI thank the Good Lord for bringing me to this worthy companyI strongly advise and recommend CFP to other possible Authors for they are honest, diligent and proficient as a businessMay continue to bless the many employees for delivering a special book in my behalf.I am extremely gratefulKeep up the fantastic workI thank you from the bottom of my Irish heart!

Christian Faith Publishing made the whole publishing process wonderful and stress freeAdam, who worked with me was the best!!!

I was very pleased working with Christian Faith Publishing on my book, "*** ** *** ***r??" The publication specialist, Barbara, was very helpfulWe worked closely to tie loose ends with every step of the book processThe process from a manuscript to a final book form has been encouraging! I'm still trying to get used to the fact that my book is publishedI recommend CFP! There is a process to bring your book through that they share with youYou will work closely with your publication specialist on every step of your bookYou will not be uninformedHere is the link to my book:
***

Trust and honestyYes, CFP was very goodBook Trailer was my favorite part because it was the end, but yet the beginning of the book, seeing it come aliveVery good communication on the part of CFPMy input was considered and questions were answered effectivelyThey really they exceeded my expectations, and I had no experience with publishingI would recommend CFP because in order for this to get to where we are they had to believe in me and I in themThere was a good publisher/client relationship

I am not a writer, but I wanted to put my journal into a book in order to give to my family and friends to explain to them why I am no longer a Mormon and why I am now a ChristianIt is called: *** *** *** The problems I had with CFP were:
Many of my pictures turned out darkThey did fix some of them
I paid $3,for them to edit and produce my bookBut, I did most of the editing myselfI kept finding mistakes that I felt they should have caughtAgain, I am not a writer but I was paying for them to find the mistakesThere are still some small grammatical errors in my book
Again, I did not do this to make money, but to inform my family and friends why I am no longer MormonBut, CFP promised I would receive royalties from any books soldThey put my book on AmazonI know a few people who ordered my book, yet I never received any royaltiesI bought one book off Amazon through the publisher and I never received a royaltyI did notice other companies

I was looking for a publishing company that had knowledge and understanding of scripture and CFP delivered on both aspectsMy favorite part by far was communicating with Shannon, my Publication Specialist She kept the excitement and thrill of publishing a book throughout the entire processThe communication between the Publication Specialist and myself was excellentShannon listened to every detail no matter how small or irrelevant it may have been and she guided me through every facetCFP exceeded my overall expectations and I would recommend them to other authorsCFP from the beginning presents a wealth of knowledge and experience in publishing and being particular in what they publish places an even greater value on their companyHowever, the finish product speaks for them, the finish product is their letter of recommendation

The publishing process with this company went smoothlyOne of the best parts was the book trailers because of how it brilliantly presented my bookMy publication specialist, Shalanda, also helped me immenselyShe always made sure to answer any questions of mine whenever she couldThe CFP exceeded my overall expectations and I would recommend CFP to other authors

Since someone may use this review to choose a publisher, I want to be as fair and honest as possibleThe customer should first understand the types of publishers, traditional, hybrid, and self-publishI have known authors using each and all have their ups and downsYou should google all before signing with anyone!
CFP is the ideal choice for new authors who believe in their book enough to invest in itEven *** *** has talked about the endless rejections he received from traditional publishersThat is a hard roadSelf-publishing is great if u have a reputable name in the biz and don't need anyone's help for anythingI have a friend who does it, he is an English grammar nerd who needs no editor and famous for his Christian writings so he needs no press PR helpWhich brings us to hybrid (CFP), I think of it as partnering on your bookThey are a huge help and you pay them for itThey more or less teach you as you go which is worth the price alone!
Without them, I (being dyslexic and a rookie) would never have published a bookI feel like I knew the business much better by the time I got the first one out and they have my second nowI hope to send my third by the end of the yearTo be fair, as some complaints have indicated the editing is the biggest concernI say you are partnering with them in that tooThey edit, then you edit, back and forthThey catch things I never would have, but yes I had to find many of my own errors and that was challenging for meIt was the only part of the process I didn't like, but what job doesn't have some headaches?
Before you overreact to the complaints you should check into what pro proofreaders charge! I checked on it, hoping I could get around having to do it myselfSome freelancers wanted insane things like rights to my book or their name as co-author! Some of the more stable proofers wanted more money than I paid CFP for everything! Off the top of my head, I recall one decent company asking me cents a word, which makes a simple 70k word book 2,800$ just for the proofing!
My advice is read your book so many times you can't miss anything and find friends who will help proofread as wellGood luck with your adventure and I hope your friends are better at it than mine! LoL

My experience with Christian Faith Publishing was everything I could imagine, and moreCommunication is key in any relationshipThe doors of communication remained open through the whole process of my book "Beautiful Child of Mine," being publishedI definitely give them starsI will be contacting CFP in the near future to submit my next manuscript and I am excited!

I appreciated the whole process with Christian Faith Publishing! Everyone did a great jobThe editing though never fun, was thorough and nearly painlessThe cover is absolutely beautiful, more than I had imaginedThe book trailer is moving and captured the feeling I so wanted to presentThe CFP team made my book come alive! My dream became a realityI am so pleased with the team's work on my behalf! The communication was great! The team absolutely listened and did their best to bring it all aboutEven the cover, which was exactly what I had envisionedI would and have, recommended CFP to othersThey did a great job and amazingly fast! Wonderful job!

I entered into a contract agreement with this publishing company to market
My book which they said they would in the agreement.also they
confirmed that my book would be in stores such as Burns and Noble,it never was also for
Eight years I received no royalty payment even though the book was selling via internet marketing

My experience with Christian Faith Publishing was a very positive one They believed in the relevance of my son's story and believed it could have a positive impact on the world I am very thankful to them for all that they did for me I wanted the chance to honor my son's life and they gave me, and him, that I was very lucky to have had my book assigned to Barbara She was very patient and helpful She kept me apprised of the status of my book as it moved through the various stages of publishing

This being my first time I was uncertain of what to expect I provided a mental image of what comes to mind when I think of the book's content The cover only had half of what I imagined and turned out perfect I love that the designers stepped out of the cover norm box of what is often seen on grief books The designer(s) provided a cover that captures the emotional and visual connections to readers I love they selected a man instead of woman or child because men grieve just as much as anyone else This choice enables the initial view to reach readers who acknowledge that grief touches everyone and blessings are able to be found through God's comforts and grace The cover provides a connection to readers before the book is picked up for review It is very professional and impressiveMy Publication Specialist was amazingThis was my first time to experience the publication processI was very impressed with quick responses and continual expressions of kindnessI often felt that I was being a nag by contacting her frequently with questions and status updatesShe was gracious to always let me know and even chuckle when I would told her that she is free to tell me to cool down my inquiresShe has been wonderful throughout this learning experienceI highly respect her as a person and professionalIt has been a blessing to work with her

When I contacted Christian Faith Publishing, I did not know how the publishing process worked, or even if my little story had any meritI was given very detailed information up front about the process and my many questions were answered quicklyI worked with Marie and Shannon, and both of these ladies were extremely encouragingI cannot say enough good things about Christian Faith PublishingThe final book far exceeded any expectations I hadEveryone who has seen the finished product has said how beautiful it isCFP is extremely easy to work with, has not pressured or tried to sway me one way or another, and always asked for my input throughout the whole process

Love Abbey, my publications specialist! The whole company is amazing, and I am so thankful to the Good Lord above that I am a published author! May I be a blessing to this company, who has been a blessing to me:)

Hi, I'd like to say I had a great, enjoyable experience with the Christian Faith Publishing, as through the experience they took me step by step to produce my poems and pictures into a wonderful book It was fun to be able to learn so much, as we either spoke on the phone or used the computer to show all the information I would recommend them to anyone looking for a publisher

My name is *** *** I want thank MrsPaula H*** for working very hard on my first book called *** *** ** *** *** She did an awesome and great job and I am more than percent satisfied with my book and book trailer I could not ask for anything more! Thank you very much MrsPaula H*** I am very grateful!

*** - We sent the author a refund check in the amount of $1,Feb 1st, check #***He should receive it shortly if he hasn't already. Chris R***PresidentChristian Faith Publishing *** ***

Everyone I worked with in this process was very helpful, especially Leslie I think of her more like a friend than a publication specialist I never expected this book to be a big seller it was more for friends and family However, it is cool to have received two royalty checks already!
I wish CFP all the best and will recommend you to other authorsSincerely,

I have attached our email correspondence with the client. The client states in his last email "PS" that they have received a publishing contract that is cheaper than the binding contract that they signed with Christian Faith PublishingThe client is making a slandering statement in their Revdex.com
review by stating that CFP "was out of business then returned into business the last three years, They did something unheard of in publishing"Christian Faith Publishing was originated and created as a publishing house back in We were never in business prior under any other name or entityWe have over positive Revdex.com reviews and hold our staff to the highest level of professional courtesy in the businessLegal action against the client will be taken if this review is made public for that statement. The issue at hand is that the client has submitted multiple manuscripts to CFPCFP's process is to complete a full edit on the original manuscriptOnce that is completed the author can submit rounds of revisions until they are completely satisfied and approve of the editThis client kept sending CFP new manuscripts which calls for a brand new additional edit each timeThe client was using an automated editing program to complete the edits on their manuscriptThe client didn't want us to edit one of the versions after the computer generated edit was completedBefore we can move on to the next step in the publishing process the author has to sign off on their editWe sent the author verbiage that the edit was complete and CFP was not going to edit another round because that is what the client indicated his wishes were. Each step of our publishing process has to be approved by the client before we can move forwardWe allow for unlimited rounds of revisions therefor we would never tell a client they couldn't make changesThe client is trying to find a way out of their binding agreement with CFP and they are making slander remarks in order to do so. I have attached our email correspondence so the Revdex.com can understand our communication with the clientOn 9/the client was ecstatic about the opportunity with CFPTwo days later they were upset and wanting a refundThe last email from that same day the client indicates they have received a cheaper publishing solution, indicating what we believe is the reason for the sudden change of heart
