Hi, I'm Andrea Lende.

I’m the founder of Beatitudes Publishing and a bestselling, award-winning author.

I know what it feels like to have a God-given story stirring in your heart but not know where to begin or how to bring it to life.

I understand the overwhelm with all the information, options, and obstacles, and how easily writers can feel lost in it.

That’s why I created Beatitudes Publishing.

I wanted to create the kind of publishing experience I wished for when I started.

You’ve answered the call to write. Now, let’s bring your book to life together.

MISSION STATEMENT

At Beatitudes Publishing, we believe every God-given story deserves to be told—and told beautifully.

Our mission is to come alongside you, the writer, who has been called to share your words but feels lost in a noisy, confusing publishing world. You don’t need to sacrifice your vision or wait years to see your book in readers’ hands.

We provide professional, compassionate publishing services that honor your message, respect your voice, and deliver a book you can be proud of because your words matter.

Your message was entrusted to you for a reason.

Together, we’ll bring your book to life, so you can reach the hearts you’re called to serve.
