Christian publishers in less-resourced communities often face significant challenges. Limited access to training, mentorship, and peer support can make it difficult for them to produce high-quality publications and share God’s message effectively. Isolation can make even the most passionate publishers feel discouraged, unsure of how to grow their ministries or expand their reach.
That’s where Magazine Training International (MTI) steps in. For more than 35 years, MTI has equipped Christian publishers around the globe—helping them strengthen their ministries, sharpen their skills, and connect with a network of peers and mentors who encourage and support one another. From practical workshops on editing, design, and management to guidance on sustainable publishing practices, MTI empowers individuals to create magazines that impact communities both locally and globally.
One of the unique aspects of MTI conferences is the emphasis on community and personal connection. Mercy Ama Harley, who volunteered at a recent MTI conference in Ghana, shared what made the experience unforgettable:
“In the morning sessions for our own devotions and debriefing, brainstorming and talking around what we would do in the day…the facilitators are very open, very friendly. You could engage with them anytime, ask any questions, and dialogue. I liked that aspect throughout the conference.”
Mercy’s words highlight the heart of MTI: it’s not just about teaching skills, but also about building relationships. Volunteers, participants, and trainers come together to create an environment where learning, collaboration, and encouragement thrive. The bonds formed during the conference continue long after the event ends, creating a global community of Christian publishers who lift one another up.
Your support makes this possible. By giving to MTI, you help lift up Christian publishers, providing them with the training, encouragement, and community they need to reach more hearts, strengthen their ministries, and share God’s message worldwide.
