You want to stay plugged into what's happening at the intersection of faith and culture — but scrolling through mainstream news leaves you feeling disconnected, and most Christian media doesn't speak your language. RELEVANT bridges that gap, covering the stories that matter to Christians in their twenties and thirties with honesty, depth, and a Christ-centered perspective that never talks down to you.^1
RELEVANT is a digital Christian media platform delivering daily articles, a long-running weekly podcast, and a digital magazine covering faith, culture, current events, relationships, justice, and intentional living. Since its founding in 2000, it has carved out a unique space — tackling topics other faith-based outlets shy away from, from mental health and racial justice to celebrity faith journeys and the ethics of AI. The content is refreshed daily on relevantmagazine.com, and RELEVANT+ subscribers get ad-free reading, early podcast access, exclusive interviews, and the full magazine archive going back to 2003.^2 The RELEVANT Podcast, running since 2005 with over 1,290 episodes, features a rotating cast discussing the week's biggest stories alongside interviews with artists, authors, and culture-makers like Lecrae, Chris Pratt, Milo Ventimiglia, and Rian Johnson.^3
Founded by Cameron Strang in Orlando, Florida, when he was 24 years old, RELEVANT Media Group published 85 books, launched multiple magazines (including the print edition of RELEVANT from 2003–2019 with 101 issues), and built one of the most recognized brands in Christian media. The print magazine once claimed a circulation of 70,000 and was nationally distributed at Barnes & Noble and Family Christian stores.^4 In 2020, RELEVANT transitioned to an all-digital format and rebuilt from the ground up — the website, podcast, and subscriber platform were all relaunched with a vision for the next era.^1
Today, RELEVANT reaches approximately 5 million Christians a month across its platforms, with a strong social media presence (260K+ Instagram followers) and a podcast that won the 2015 Academy of Podcasters award in the Spirituality & Religion category.^4 As they put it: "We believe encountering God changes lives, so we look at how we can live that out in tangible and intentional ways."^1
