For Release in 2021…

The Masterpiece Bible

Discover the Bible’s narratives in a new light when you see yourself as part of God’s story through artistic devotional reflections by award-winning poet, Cheryl Ricker, alongside unforgettable world-class paintings by Ron DiCianni. The Masterpiece Bible transcends time, uniting ancient and contemporary worlds through the riveting lens of glory and grace.

While some Bibles present a mishmash of decorative pictures using various artists with differing styles, The Masterpiece Bible gives your eyes a unified feast on some of the finest art pieces in the world – all by the same modern-day artist. When paired with provocative questions, rich prophetic insights, and powerful prayers, you are seamlessly drawn into a fresh love encounter.

A platform for the aspiring christian author

Dunamis Words is a small, close-knit literary agency that began with Cheryl representing herself and the coauthor she collaborated with on Josiah’s Fire in 2015. As God sent Cheryl more authors and ministry leaders who needed guidance, she found herself organically stepping into an agenting role, helping one author at a time, as story after God-story unfolded, and Dunamis Words was born. Cheryl loves encouraging and helping her clients make a big Kingdom impact while reaching their literary dreams.
