Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get my own copy of the directory?

The best way to get the directory is at Churches and Christian Bookstores in your area. They are free for 2006 and stocked when needed throughout the year. We also distribute directories to ministries, and businesses that are in the directory.

How do you know that advertisers are Christian?

We asked that a prospective advertiser agrees with our statement of faith which is printed in the front section of the directory. Generally, we find new advertisers through referrals from Churches and other Christian businesses.

How much does it cost to advertise?

Your local Account Executive will have a rate cards. Also keep in mind that the listed prices are for a full year of advertising which includes full color and layout. There is a small fee to design your ad.

How much does it cost to list my church or ministry in the directory?

If you are a 501-C3 Church or Ministry you will be listed FREE! A Church or ministry staff member needs to fill out and return a listing form to our main office.

What if I have used a company from the directory and they do poor work?

We appreciate you writing us and letting us know of any unacceptable work or behavior you have witnessed. We will take your experience into consideration when renewing that client the following year. If we have multiple complaints about a particular advertiser, we will remove them from any future directories.

What is the response from advertising in the directory?

Obviously, advertisers will get different responses depending on their business. Just remember that not only is your business name out in the Christian Community for one whole year and in over 450 Churches and Businesses, but you are also taking a stand for Jesus Christ in the Market Place and helping fund the furtherance of the Gospel by more tithes going into the store houses.

What is the most important reason for publishing this directory?

That GOD be glorified in the marketplace and His kingdom be advanced! The marketplace has long been overlooked in the Church, but that is changing as GOD is in the marketplace.

How will this publication enhance the Christian Business?

This will make it easier to know if we have a choice to do business with Christians in particular field of business and where they can be located in the marketplace.

Who should use this directory?

Anyone can and should! The directories will be given to churches in the area so that their people can bless Believers businesses. This also brings validity to the Christian business person. They are an important part of their church community and marketplace. It’s been my experience that Christian business people are generally the ones in the church that give the most time and money and vision in the Body of Christ. What better way is there to bless those who bless the Church than giving them a tool to advertise and network.

As Christian professionals and business owner’s let’s stand together for Christ in the Market Place!
