Religious editing is a highly niche specialisation. Capstone Editing has a team of specialist Christian editors who have the knowledge and skills to offer this service. In fact, Capstone is the only editing company in Australia to provide this unique offering.
Capstone Editing has committed Christian editors who perform their role with the meticulous attention to detail and exceptional skills with which Capstone Editing is synonymous. But our small team of Christian editors also edit from a place of passion and faith. Just as our academic editors understand the pressures and demands involved in the creation of a PhD thesis, our specialist Christian editors understand the worldly importance of your message and are passionate about using their skills to support and strengthen it.
You can be confident that your work is being edited by skilled professionals who not only intimately understand the scope of editing complex documents, but also have personal and professional knowledge and skills concerning the subtleties and nuances of Christian writing. As specialist Christian editors, our precision and eye for detail is incomparable, because we understand the need for excellence in Christian publications.
Our team of Christian editors recognises that biblical language is meaningfully different from modern language. For example, in biblical terms, ‘the first hour’ refers to 7.00 am. Some Christian publishers convert this for the reader, so it is essential that Christian editors are highly familiar with biblical publication conventions and differences. Be assured that Capstone Editing’s Christian editors have all the answers in the highly complex world of theological editing.
As with all styles of writing, not all Christian writing is the same. From complex theological theses and articles to romantic Christian fiction and devotionals, our editors are trained to edit according to Australian and international publication standards and the specialised needs and conventions of Christian publishers and institutions.
Our editors are required to undergo intensive training here at Capstone Editing, which has devised Australia’s only comprehensive Christian editing training program. This program encompasses important biblical knowledge on the various translations and versions available. We recognise that different Christian denominations prefer different versions of the Bible. This understanding is essential, as the books contained in each version of the Bible vary.
Capstone Editing’s Christian editing services offer an exceptional niche crossover of academic and theological expertise. An exclusively academic editor may not understand Christian-specific theological conventions, and a specialist Christian editor may not be skilled in academic conventions.
As experts in language, referencing and formatting, Capstone Editing’s Christian editing team is confident and skilled in editing documents for various purposes, audiences and contexts. Our expert team has extensive experience copyediting many types of Christian documents, including:
