Trying to plan a month of Christian content while juggling real-life problems, spiritual warfare, and a sleep schedule that’s hanging on by a prayer? Relatable.
You’ve got the fire. The calling. The message.
But what you don’t have? The capacity to wing it every day without combusting.
Sis, this post is your lifeline. Let’s build a system that honours your oil and your limits — so you can post with purpose and peace.
1. Start With the Message, Not the Medium
Before you stress about Instagram vs TikTok, stop. Ask:
“What is God asking me to speak this month?”
Write down 2–4 main themes or messages you feel led to share. These will become your content pillars for the month.
For example:
- Emotional healing through Christ
- Scripture breakdowns
- Christian lifestyle encouragement
- Behind-the-scenes of faith in action
Each theme = at least one week of content.
Let the message lead. The format will follow.
2. Choose Your Pace, Not Their Algorithm
You don’t need to post 5x a day to be effective.
You need to be consistent with what you can realistically sustain — and do it with intention.
Try this format for one month:
- 2 main posts per week (blog, carousel, video)
- 1 micro-post or story (quote, verse, life update)
- 1 call to action (Ko-Fi plug, blog share, email sign-up)
➡️ That’s 4–5 posts a week = 16–20 total. That’s your whole month.

3. Batch Your Content While You’re in the Flow
Batching is your burnout prevention plan. Instead of waking up each day asking, “What do I post today?” you sit down once a week and knock out multiple pieces in one go.
Your batching plan:
- Day 1: Brainstorm (your 2–4 main messages + ideas for each)
- Day 2: Write (caption + blog + outline videos)
- Day 3: Design + Film (Canva graphics, reels, photos)
- Day 4: Schedule using Later or Canva’s planner
✍🏾 Bonus: keep all your ideas in Trello so you don’t lose the flow.
4. Repurpose Like a Wise Steward
One message = multiple formats.
That blog post? Turn it into:
- 3–4 Instagram carousels
- 1 YouTube Short or Reel
- 1 Pinterest pin
- 1 email newsletter
Don’t create more. Stretch what God already gave you.
5. Pray Before You Post — No, Seriously
It’s not just content. It’s ministry.
Before every batching session, pray:
“Holy Spirit, what do You want to say through me this week? Give me grace to steward the message with clarity, humility, and boldness.”
Your captions will hit harder. Your videos will carry weight.
And your peace? Unshaken.
6. Rest Days Are Part of the Strategy
God didn’t command hustle. He commanded rest.
Build rest into your plan:
- Choose 1–2 no-post days per week
- Schedule them ahead — no guilt allowed
- On those days, consume more of the Word than content
You can’t pour if you’re empty. Even Jesus napped.

Final Thoughts
When you plan a month of Christian content with intention, you create room for both creativity and Christ-centred consistency.
This isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about being present — with your audience and with the God who called you to speak.
Don’t chase content. Carry presence.
Don’t copy hustle culture. Choose holy rhythm.
And remember: the anointing isn’t in the strategy — it’s in the surrender.
