Type a title page for your Christian nonfiction book proposal in a word-processing program on your computer. Place the title about one-third of the way down on your paper and include your contact information, such as name, address and phone number below it.
Write an overview that explains the subject of your book. The overview is typically a one- to three-page statement that explains the topic matter that you will include in the book.
Discuss, in your typed document, the market aspects of your book. Explain what groups of people you think might be interested in reading your Christian nonfiction book.
Give comparisons and analysis between your book and other books that are already published. This section of the proposal allows you to give a reason why your book is needed even if there are other books already written on the subject.
Use your bio to sell yourself. Give information as to why you are an expert in the field and qualified to write the book. In your proposal, include a list of previous books or articles that you have written.
Provide information about how you intend to promote the book. Tell whether you will use social networking, conferences or speaking engagements to help sell your book.
Include a chapter outline and chapter abstract of your book. The chapter outline gives a detailed table of contents about the proposed chapters, while the chapter abstract briefly explains what each chapter will contain.
Submit the first two to three chapters of the book. Use Courier New or Times New Roman as the writing font and double-space the chapter pages.
