Before sending Decision your manuscript, consider...

Decision magazine's purpose is to set forth the Good News of salvation in Jesus Christ with such clarity that readers will be drawn to make a commitment to Christ; to encourage, teach and strengthen Christians to walk daily with Christ and to reach out to others for Christ; and to inform readers about the ministry of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.

We look for articles that communicate the hope that is found in the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Readers should see how Christ makes a difference in your life and how you are applying biblical truth.

Our Editorial Needs

We are considering only articles that have some connection with a ministry of BGEA either through the author's participation in the ministry or through the author being touched by the ministry.

Finding Jesus - Did you make a decision for Christ as a result of a Billy Graham Crusade, a Franklin Graham Festival, or a ministry of BGEA such as a telecast, film, radio, Web site or Decision magazine? Tell us about it-and what you are doing now. Length: 500-900 words.

Sharing Your Faith - How do you help others to know about Jesus? Tell us your story and give us some practical tips for our own witness. Length: 600 words.

Personal Experience - How have you applied biblical principles to everyday living or to a crisis experience? Or, how did you grow closer to Christ through a specific experience? The story should have some connection with a ministry of BGEA or of Billy Graham or Franklin Graham. Length: 500-900 words.
