2022 Christian Fiction Releases & a Giveaway

By Deena Adams

Happy New Year! On this first week in January, I’m providing a list of some 2022 new releases as a resource for readers. This list was compiled from the responses of people in several reader and writer Facebook groups when asked which books they’re most looking forward to or who’s releasing a book.

I’ve also added a few books by authors I have scheduled to interview on my blog this year. You can find more releases by publication date at Fiction Finder.

If a preorder link is available, I’ve included it. You can click the title to learn more.

For this week’s giveaway, one person who comments on this post will win your choice of one of the January releases, which are pictured in the header photo.
