Here’s a haul of Aussie books worth celebrating this Australia Day.

Aussie readers love Aussie authors, and we’re excited to share a whole range of books just listed on the Find Australian Christian Books site including a fab new release that will run off the shelves.

We’re also delighted to introduce you to author Carolyn Miller who just keeps writing compelling Aussie Christian fiction that her readers love. You can find the interview at the bottom of this newsletter.

Stunning new release

This amazing book is the true story of a couch potato with diabetes who became an ultra-marathon runner. ‘It’s Not A Sprint’ was released in December 2024 to great reviews like ‘life inspiring and life changing’. We can’t wait for more readers to be encouraged by Stephanie Walters’ fantastic spiritual memoir.

Trustworthy children’s Bible studies

Penny Reeve’s wonderful Bible studies for children are published by Youthworks Media, and work equally well for children on their own, as well as in groups. Discover more by Penny Reeve on Find Australian Christian Books.

Timely Aussie memoir

In the midst of Australia's worst bush-fire disaster, Jan Graham asked the question: "What can I do to help?" The answer became three years of intense relief work, helping survivors of the Black Saturday fires. A relevant memoir and challenge for Christians during Australia’s summer.

Beautiful Biblical fiction

One woman, five husbands and a weary rabbi at the well who knows everything she ever did.

The day after they bury her husband, Leah loses her baby. A widow and childless, what man will want her now?

“Well written and enthralling. A recommended read!” The Silk Merchant of Sychar is a beautifully researched retelling of the Samaritan woman at the well by CALEB award winning author Cindy Williams.

YA fiction with great values

“Hooked me in from start to finish! Integrate is easy to read and has a great storyline.”

YA readers will love this well-written suspenseful medical thriller by an Aussie Christian author — and parents can trust the content. Discover more by Adele Jones on Find Australian Christian Books.

Hilarious series for emerging readers

“This story is a gem for both parents and children alike!”

Discover the humorous Pet Sitters series, perfect for emerging readers aged 5 to 7, or for whole family read-alouds. Created for a general audience by Christian authors Penny Reeve and Cecily Paterson writing as Ella Shine, this series features hilarious plotlines and great values that parents can trust.

Meet Carolyn Miller, Aussie author of Christian fiction.

Carolyn Miller is what writers call a ‘pantser’ — she doesn’t really plan where her story might take her, so she’s always excited to see where things end up. (We think that with 50 books in multiple genres under her belt, and a bevy of raving fans, whatever she’s doing is obviously working...)
