The International Christian Book Awards is unique because it evaluates books with both biblical integrity and literary excellence, provides meaningful feedback, and actively empowers Christian authors who carry God's message through story to expand their reach and impact for the Gospel through methods of recognition and support.

You may submit as many categories related to your book as you would like. Each category will be charged a $69 fee. Select the first six categories through the drop-down menus on the submission form. For more than six categories, submit a separate form and note you are entering additional categories. Only upload your book to one form, but include the title on both forms you submit. Enter the quantity of categories on each form in the quantity box. You will only be entered in the number of categories paid for.

The International Christian Book Awards is committed to maintaining the highest standards of excellence. For this reason, not every submission can receive an award. However, we believe that the very act of writing and sharing your story is a victory in itself.

Whether or not your book is selected, we encourage you to see this as part of your growth as an author. Use the experience to refine your craft, deepen your message, and continue pursuing the calling God has placed on your heart. While your work may not align perfectly with our award criteria at this time, it does not diminish its value or potential impact.

Keep going. Keep growing. Your story matters.

Once you submit, allow 2-3 months for the process to be completed. You will receive an email or phone call notifying you of the judging panels final decision. Please use the email you would like notification sent to or phone number for a call or text.

The winner of this prestigious award will receive:

- A digital medallion that you can print on your book cover and use on social media or other marketing materials.

- A mailed certificate for hanging.

- A few samples of a seal that you can use on your book cover.

- Author Spotlight of your book on all of the International Christian Book Awards social media platforms.

- A free opt-in to be included in our online bookstore (ONLY for our winning authors at this time. Royalty split applies).

All of this is included in the $69 entry fee.
