OUR MISSION
Creating Christian content that changes the people who change the world.

Since 1956, the communications ministry of
Christianity Today International
has been committed to this mission.

What exactly does commitment to Christ look like to the divergent world of the 21st century?

What is the Scripture saying to a church in the midst of social, cultural and political change and upheaval?

These were just two of the questions that evangelist Billy Graham sought to give prophetic guidance to when he envisioned Christianity Today magazine. Today, Dr. Graham's vision has become an international communications ministry that now includes multiple award-winning magazines, books, tapes, curricula, CDs and an ever-expanding online presence.

Initially focused on providing pastors with a strong energetic voice of evangelical leadership, CTI now serves the global church with resources designed to meet the needs of both Christian leaders and laity alike — adults, youth, and families.

Today, more than 2.5 million readers gain encouragement and relevant, Bible-based wisdom from CTI's 11 magazines; publications that include not only the flagship Christianity Today, but Leadership Journal, Campus Life's Christian College Guide, Today's Christian Woman, Your Church, Books & Culture, Church Law & Tax Report, Church Finance Today, Church Office Today, and the men's devotional, Men of Integrity.

In addition, CTI's pioneering electronic efforts through ChristianityToday.com have positioned the CTI ministry as a leader in understanding and using this exciting and far-reaching communications tool to help define and give substance to a growing evangelical presence on the Internet. Online resources include:

• PreachingToday.com, a leading subscription-access site for preachers;
• BuildingChurchLeaders.com, a lay-leadership training site;
• SmallGroups.com;
• ChurchSafety.com;
• ChristianHistory.net;
• ReducingTheRisk.com;
• and the "e-zine" Christianity Today magazine.

Also included are a variety of community-building interest areas and more than a dozen e-mail newsletters. We help provide believers worldwide with the practical tools and scriptural perspectives needed to successfully tackle the myriad challenges of being salt and light in today's world.
