Basic History
FaithWorks is a lifestyle magazine for Christians committed to engaging a
post-Christian, postmodern culture. Society is witnessing historic faith
shifts--most notably the weakening of traditional denominationalism, the rise of
postmodernity as the prevailing worldview, a resurgence of spirituality, and the
empowerment of the laity within many faiths. FaithWorks helps lay
Christians navigate those cultural transitions. The magazine field offers few if
any general-interest publications that are intended for centrist young-adult
Christians. FaithWorks targets this audience with sensible approach to
applied faith.
Basic Beliefs
FaithWorks' goal is to help contemporary Christians integrate their faith
and life and is committed to responsible journalism for a mainstream Christian
audience with an emphasis on applied faith, not theological inquiry, political
activism or denominational advocacy. Their intent is not to create a Christian
subculture but to engage a post-Christian culture with the following core
values:
- Real life - to be culturally
relevant. FaithWorks promotes dialogue between Christians and the
post-modern, post-denominational culture.
- Real faith - to integrate faith and
life. FaithWorks helps Christians discover how a relationship with
God shapes a response to real-life issues.
- Real people - to be the believer's
advocate. FaithWorks values authenticity, helping transformed people
live transparent lives.
