Your publishing house is in the position to significantly impact the ministries of the Christian community. The congregations, individuals, families and other faith-based organizations you serve depends on your publishing and media work for so many things—the materials you produce enhance ministries, worship, outreach, identity and resources to help individuals on their faith journey.

So how do you balance ministry and business? What issues are you facing as a publisher of Christian resources?

Chances are some of our members are facing the same issues. But answers to these sorts of questions are only part of the benefits of PCPA membership. PCPA boasts an atmosphere which nurtures its members' staffs by encouraging the free exchange of ideas and concerns, problems and solutions, and how to best prepare for the constantly changing future.

Although the size of our member publishing houses varies considerably, we all consider creating excellent resources for Christians and those interested in Christianity our first and foremost goal. Out of this common objective, PCPA members work together primarily as partners in ministry rather than competitors in the marketplace.

We encourage you to consider becoming an active member of PCPA today.

Annual dues to join PCPA are a bargain for our Publishing Company Members. And the majority of our resources throughout the year are gratis, so you won’t be nickeled and dimed with additional fees. Dues are paid on an annual basis each December for the next calendar year. The amount due is based on sales for your most recent fiscal year:
