Scope of Work
Writing is a path to joy; helping others is a path to salvation.
Mission
I AM Media books publishes a wide array of peer-reviewed projects by women of color, especially Israelite women writers across the diaspora guided by three goals: imagining our culture, bringing it to light, and weaving Biblical culture, minus religious doctrine, into creative evocative narratives and memorable characters
Vision
Our vision is to sow the seeds of sisterhood, cultivate author-preneurship, and develop women of color across the diaspora, especially Israelite women authors with writing projects focused on children, family, and community development. I AM Media Books publishes Biblical fiction, culturally relevant academic, ethnographic, and narrative non-fiction, and Biblical-based children’s books written by Israelite women authors across the diaspora. Our literary luminaries shine the light of the Word into the four corners of the world.
Executive Board of Directors
We are prayer warriors, working to build sister author-preneurs in the name of The Most High

I AM was conceived to ignite a fire across the four corners of the globe. I co-labor with my I AM Media sisters to give birth to words that breathe life into the world in Spirit and in Truth. Collectively, we invest our time and talents to illuminate the path of righteousness guided by the Fruit of the Spirit. I am a media midwife, delivering words to awaken the world: one book at a time.

Morah Michal Chiyim
National Director
Morah Michal has grown in the truth for over 40 years and is Associate Professor in Higher Education. The Word is the ultimate; source for encouragement; we all need regular encouragement by those around us. We are encouraged by our Father’s Word to encourage one another on a daily basis, as per Hebrews 3:13. Nurturing the human soul is one of my favorite things to do. It’s an exchange of energy because I feel good doing it, and I reap what I sow.
What our writers are saying
“
My deepest appreciation to I AM Media Book for bringing my book, “Free To Be Me” to print. The journey was one that I will remember as positive and truly an author’s dream. Thank you Marguerite Wright for the beautiful illustrations and cover, the story would not be engaging with you. Thank you Chaplain Ahavah Nahala for your patience and professional feedback. I can’t describe how wonderful it feels to see my project become a reality. I am so very grateful to the I AM Media board of directors and staff! God Bless!
