The Christian Chronicle<\/span><\/i> welcomes guest column or op-ed submissions from members and leaders of Churches of Christ. Submissions may be sent to letters@christianchronicle.org<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Each submission should include:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The writer\u2019s first and last names<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The writer\u2019s home Church of Christ, city and state (if in the U.S.) or country (if not in the U.S.).<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. A brief bio (two to three sentences) and contact info for the writer (please specify if you\u2019d like your email address to be published with your submission).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Tips for submissions:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Focus on a specific issue or question of importance to our readers.<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Use a topical approach, including real-life examples and anecdotes, when possible, to illustrate your main point or idea.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Shoot for a word count between 500 and 600. We rarely have space for longer guest columns or op-eds.<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Remember that we are a newspaper, so we tend to focus on timely subjects in the headlines and contemporary issues and questions facing our fellowship. Our format does not afford space for in-depth Bible study or doctrinal debates.<\/span><\/li>\n
    5. Make it interesting. It may be important, but if it\u2019s boring, nobody will read it.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
