Publishing Principles

Our editorial team seeks to translate, publish, and produce resources that fit our ethos and purpose as a Christian publishing house, as reflected in the following principles:

Faithfulness to Scripture: Witness to the divine truths found in Scripture, acknowledging that the inspired Word of God is the ultimate standard in all matters of faith and practice and is useful for “teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness” (2 Tim 3:16-17).

Edification of the Church: Proclaim Christ and His redemptive work through nurturing the Church and its leaders, believing that the Church, which exists and is empowered by God’s Spirit, is called to carry on Christ’s work of redemption and reconciliation.

Excellence in Work: Exhibit high standards of quality, promote critical thinking, and foster an environment of respectful conversation and debate.  

Relevance to the Community: Embody spiritual, social, and cultural relevance for the Body of Christ, particularly Arabic-speaking believers.
