Dear Friend,

“To us a child is born, to us a son is given.” The Prince of Peace has come—establishing a Kingdom upheld with justice, righteousness, and unending peace.

And yet, as theologian Fleming Rutledge writes in Advent: The Once and Future Coming of Jesus Christ,

“The disappointment, brokenness, suffering, and pain that characterize life in this present world is held in dynamic tension with the promise of future glory that is yet to come. In that Advent tension, the Church lives its life.”

We live in that tension every day, don’t we? The world still aches, and yet Christ reigns.

That’s why Christianity Today exists: to help the Church live faithfully in this in-between time—

• to tell the stories of redemption breaking through the darkness,

• to disciple believers through in-depth storytelling and thought-provoking podcasts,

• and to build bridges across the divisions that threaten our witness.

Would you give a year-end gift of $50, $100, or whatever you can before December 31 to help CT encourage and disciple more believers around the world—helping the Church flourish under Christ’s reign?

Every day, CT helps believers see the world through the lens of Christ’s unshakable Kingdom and live faithfully in the midst of the darkness. CT doesn’t just inform—it forms. It shapes how pastors preach, how students discern their callings, how churches navigate cultural complexity, and how everyday Christians bear witness with wisdom and grace.

That’s why the words of Kevin Brown, President of Asbury University, carry such significance. As a leader shaping the next generation of Christian thinkers and disciples, he sees firsthand the impact of CT’s ministry:

“CT helps us learn to be faithful and see the world in a faithful way.”

This is what your partnership makes possible—Christ-centered storytelling that anchors faith, deepens discipleship, and points a watching world to the hope of the gospel.

Would you make a year-end gift before December 31 to help CT strengthen and empower the Church to flourish?

As we celebrate the birth of our Savior, we rest in the assurance that Christ is ruling and reigning today. As we wait for his return to make all things new, we work together so that his Church might flourish under his lordship—today and for generations to come.

Thank you for your partnership,

Cory Whitehead
Vice President of Mission Advancement
