Biblical African

Submissions Policy

Writer's Guidelines. Please read carefully.

Interested in writing for Biblical African? We are looking for blog posts and articles that fall into one or more of the following categories:

Pastoral — Written by and/or for Christians, providing gospel-centered encouragement to those eager to see the church grow in spirit and mission and glorify Jesus Christ, not only in Africa, but around the world.

Practical — Give us a plan for how to address a problem or issue in the Christian life or ministry. Diagnose the heart of the issue and root your application in the finished work of Christ. We are looking for practical, not pragmatic.

Devotional — We are looking for content that helps us treasure Christ more greatly, know Him more deeply, and orient around His gospel more stubbornly. Biblical reflections, theological meditations, or spiritual illustrations. Help us enjoy grace and delight in God.

Within those three general parameters, there are lots of possibilities for topics and texts to explore. We are prioritizing the Christian ministry and the Christian life in the African context.
