Church Leadership in an Age of Outrage is the September/October 2024 issue of Christian Standard, centered on leading faithfully in a divided and emotionally charged public moment. The issue’s cover theme is developed through feature articles on honoring Christ in an age of outrage, leading like Jesus in a cultural quagmire, political engagement in the Restoration Movement, and the question of whether character or results make a leader good.
Across the issue, readers will find practical and reflective content for ministers, elders, and church leaders. Articles address political engagement that honors Jesus and promotes unity, the influence of echo chambers on Christian thinking, prayer’s transforming role in marriage, mission, and ministry, and preaching that grows from love for God’s Word. The issue also highlights ministry work through Latino Christian Movement and includes reflection on leadership transition, legacy, and finishing well.
Christian Standard, September/October 2024 presents church leadership not as image management or cultural reaction, but as Christ-centered service shaped by truth, humility, and spiritual maturity. The issue consistently returns to questions of identity, witness, and responsibility in a contentious age. For readers interested in church leadership in an age of outrage, this print issue offers a strong snapshot of contemporary concerns facing churches, pastors, and ministry leaders within the Restoration Movement and beyond.
