Today Kyria.com announced the release of the inaugural issue of their monthly digital magazine (digizine), titled “Born Identity: Chosen in Christ. Called to Influence.”
In August 2009, Christianity Today International launched Kyria.com, a web-based resource for women who want to grow deeper in their relationship with Christ and in faithfully influencing the people around them to respond to Christ. The new paid-access website combines articles, blogs, downloadable resources, and now this monthly digizine.
Each issue of the Kyria digizine will be devoted to a specific aspect of spiritual formation or a spiritual discipline. Included is an interview with a woman who has devoted herself to becoming more like Christ, as well as practical tools, Bible studies, and challenging commentary.
Editor Ginger Kolbaba says, “Women are such powerhouses in their families, churches, and communities. It’s exciting to lead and encourage them into greater depths of their faith through Kyria’s resources. It’s especially fulfilling to see women embrace the purposes and calling God has on their lives.”
The November issue of the Kyria digizine is open-access for everyone to view and share, and features the following pieces:
