“Milligan College and Standard Publishing share a long history of service to the church,” said Mark Taylor, editor of CHRISTIAN STANDARD. “In the past 140-plus years both have sought to equip men and women to lead through service. We are honored to be a part of both of these programs because of the way they highlight examples of Christian leadership for others to follow.”
