Bloom! is a 24-page print magazine that comes out quarterly and is free of charge.

{Our Purpose}

To encourage, inspire, and support girls on their journey towards a gospel-centered, world-altering, Biblical womanhood.

{Our Story}

In November of 2006, Jessina, Megan, and Joanna collaborated to start a magazine for Christian young women that would raise the expectations held for us. We felt that most literature aimed towards Christian young women like ourselves expected that a young person's relationship with and understanding of Jesus Christ could only go so far and that what most young women needed to know was simply how to stay pure until marriage. Although we agree, we believe that there is still much more to the Christian life and that we as Christian young women should be held accountable to be set-apart, gospel-centered, world-altering women who yearn for the Lord to be made more and more present in our lives and in our world. That is and always has been our goal for the magazine: to encourage, inspire, and support girls on their journey towards a gospel-centered, world-altering, Biblical womanhood. We are passionate about spiritual formation, the spiritual disciplines, theology, social justice, the lives and stories of Christians throughout the world, and above all, the gospel of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Our first issue was released in February of 2007. Since then the magazine has grown and changed and we have been grateful for the work the Lord is doing through it. We have had the privilege...of interviewing authors and Christians of whom we expect and admire...of interacting and communicating with our readers and getting to know the large network of Christian young women who are passionate about Christ and his glory...of seeing our own lives stretched and our own understanding of God grow. And we are constantly reminded that it is "neither he who plants nor he who waters [who] is anything, but only God who makes things grow." (I Corinthians 3:7)

As mentioned here, the magazine publication is in a temporary "freeze" due to some time and financial problems. However, it is temporary and we hope to restart the publication of the magazine shortly. Thank you all for your patience and understanding! We will keep you updated.
