Church Matters is a quarterly journal for pastors. Each issue works to equip and encourage biblical thinking among pastors for the purpose of helping them build healthy churches.

It may look and feel like a book, but Church Matters is a journal made up of twenty to thirty articles focused on specific topics related to the church. The unique benefits to the journal format are at least three-fold for pastors: 

1. Range and specificity. The journal format allows 9Marks to treat in briefer compass a wider range of subjects than would often be considered for books. Each issue treats a topic from dozens of different angles ranging from theology to practice. Church Matters covers more topics closer up and from many different angles. 
2. Written by pastors. Each issue of Church Matters depends on the hard-won insights of 25-plus practitioner-pastors. This many trusted authors naturally means a diversity of perspectives due to geography, demographics, church context, and so forth. 
3. Written for pastors. 9Marks has always aimed to write for pastors. Whether covering foundational subjects like church membership or more time-sensitive topics like Christian Nationalism, each issue aims to equip, encourage, train, and support healthy pastoral ministry. Church Matters is unique because it’s for pastors.

1. More than just the senior pastor. Church Matters is also for the staff pastor in your church who focuses on missions, youth, adult education, etc. It’s for the lay elder who goes to work every day as a mechanic, lawyer, engineer, etc. It’s for missionaries and anyone who aspires to ministry.
2. Convenience. While any one of these folk could order a copy for themselves or go online to read the selected free articles, the likelihood is that they won’t—or at least not consistently. This is why 9Marks wants to automatically send your church as many printed copies of Church Matters as you have pastors and aspiring pastors and missionaries. Subscription makes Church Matters convenient. 
3. A training tool. Printed copies make it easier for you to use Church Matters as a training tool in your staff and elders meetings, while providing a better reading experience. And just like commentaries, the Church Matters journal can serve as an accessible, practical reference tool that sits in your pastoral library so you can refer to it as needed during studies, preparation, counseling, and pastoral meetings, etc.
