What writers should know about the Christian Leader
Christian Leader is the official bimonthly publication of the U.S. Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches (USMB). It is sent to about 7,000 USMB households in the United States and to others who wish to receive it. The magazine seeks to inspire, inform, educate and challenge church members and attendees, as well as to provide a “kitchen table” around which our diverse denomination can gather.
Our readers are primarily adults, young and old, married and single, of all levels of income and education, of many vocations and professions. They are active in urban and rural USMB congregations.
Who writes for the Christian Leader
We give preference to writers who are from North American Mennonite Brethren congregations, ministries and educational institutions. We welcome articles by writers from within the Anabaptist and Mennonite family of denominations.
Articles by Mennonite Brethren and those from other Mennonite writers that focus on personal experiences are encouraged. Please do not submit personal testimonies or stories unless you are a Mennonite Brethren or Mennonite writer.
We publish a limited number of articles by writers with no connection to the evangelical Anabaptist community. Freelance writers most often contribute articles to our feature department. We recommend that freelance writers review articles posted on this website or read a printed CL before submitting a query.
