  • Confused about how to write a book?
  • Struggling to find time to write?
  • Ready to learn a step-by-step process to self-publish like a pro?


Welcome to Ink and Impact, the podcast for Christian writers who want to self-publish their first nonfiction book. I’m your host, Dalene Bickel – a Jesus-loving book coach and founder of Lasting Legacies Publishing.


I’ve worked in the self-publishing industry for 29 years and I’ve written and published more than a dozen nonfiction books for clients (and myself).


What started out as a way to help retirees privately publish their life stories expanded in 2021 when the Lord called me to serve Christian writers.


I believe the Lord is calling Christian writers just like you – writers of all ages, races, and nationalities. Writers who are willing to create quality nonfiction books that offer the light, hope, and truth of Christ to a weary and waiting world.


Books that make a true impact on the world and leave a lasting legacy.


Maybe that resonates with you. Maybe you feel led to write a faith-based business or how-to book, memoir, devotional, or Bible study.


But as a busy business owner, parent of littles, family caregiver (or a combo of all three), your dream of becoming an author might seem out of reach right now.


The reality is that God has given you a message to share right now for a reason.


Here on the podcast, I’ll help you develop a publishing plan, write your manuscript, self-publish your book, and sell more copies no matter how much - or little- time you have.

Join me here each week as I bring you rotating content full of practical information and tangible tips as well as occasional interviews and industry insights, all from a Biblical perspective.


Get ready to:

  • Replace distraction with productive action,
  • Learn a clear step-by-step process, and
  • Communicate your message in a way that attracts readers.


Fire up your computer and brew an extra pot of coffee, friend. It’s time to write your book and make an impact!

    Ep. 164 | Building a Vision-Driven Brand in Today's Christian Marketplace with Dr. Dave Jones
    2026/07/30

    On this episode of the Ink and Impact podcast, host Dalene interviews guest Dr. Dave Jones, a former Air Force member and professional hockey player turned founder of the Christian advertising agency M Is Good.

    Dave shares how losing his hockey identity led him to faith-driven mentorship and eventually launching his agency.

    Dave advises authors to ground vision in a healthy identity in Christ rather than performance, manage toxic motivators, build community, and market by making your content resonate quickly.
