Description
In this engaging and timely keynote, Dr. Katherine takes Christian editors on a reflective and forward-looking journey through the dramatic evolution of the publishing world—from the days of red pens, mailed manuscripts, and gatekeeping publishers to today’s fast-moving digital landscape shaped by self-publishing, global platforms, and artificial intelligence.
With humor, honesty, and deep insight, she explores how each stage of her academic and professional journey revealed a new layer of industry transformation—culminating in the unprecedented rise of AI and its impact on writing, editing, and content creation.
Rather than viewing change with fear, this message reframes it as an opportunity. Dr. Katherine equips editors with five timeless takeaways for thriving in any season: staying teachable, practicing wise discernment with tools, remaining connected through professional community, leaning into strengths, and putting God first in all things.
Grounded in Scripture and real-world experience, this keynote reminds editors that while tools will continue to evolve, their true “edge” lies not in technology—but in character, calling, and spiritual discernment.
Perfect for Christian editors seeking encouragement, clarity, and renewed confidence in their role within a rapidly changing publishing world.
