This premier religious paper uplifted readers with encouraging Bible topics, and keys to Christian living. In particular, it sought to restore and elevate that first generation of emancipated African Americans. At almost 120 years, Message is still uplifting and educating its readers. Message is available bi-monthly in print format and is also available in online, accessible to Android, iPhone and iPad users.

Do you remember the specific sound of Friday afternoon in your grandmother’s house? The kitchen humming, the house smelling of fresh linen, and that special shift in the air as the sun began to dip?

For generations, Message readers have cherished the tradition of "Preparation Day." It’s more than just a to-do list; it’s a heritage of heart-work: clearing the clutter of the week to make room for the holy. Whether it was shining shoes or finishing the Sabbath meal, those moments taught us that the best gifts are the ones we truly prepare for.

We’re honoring that beautiful legacy in our latest Message Vault session. Join us as we look back at how our community has historically welcomed the Sabbath and find fresh inspiration for your own Friday rhythm. You’re not alone in wanting to make this time special: we’re here to walk that path with you.

See it differently and keep the tradition alive. Read below and stay connected to the stories that shape us.

Building a legacy that lasts for generations doesn't happen by accident: it starts with faithful stewardship today.

During Message Heritage Month, we're diving deep into what it means to protect our family’s financial future using biblical principles. It’s more than just saving; it’s about creating a foundation of wisdom and protection that honors our past and secures our future.

Have you ever wondered how to bridge the gap between faith and finance? You’re not alone! We believe God wants us to be wise managers of our resources so we can be a blessing to our children’s children. From understanding debt to strategic planning, the Bible offers a roadmap for generational wealth that stands the test of time.

Let’s build something together that remains. See things differently and take a step toward financial peace today.
