Learn how to apply biblical truth to journalism in today’s world!
The mission of the World Journalism Institute is to recruit, equip, place, and encourage journalists who are Christians. The mission of WJI Europe is to do that on and for the European continent, with the aim of expanding World News Group’s international coverage.
WJI Europe 2022 will take place August 21-27, 2022 at Benedictine Monastery Tyniec in Krakow, Poland. Training is free of charge and will be in English. Lodging and meals will be provided. Attendees are responsible for their own travel arrangements to and from Krakow.
If God is in control of history’s events, how should a Christian report on politics, wars, natural disasters, the economy, technology, the arts, marriage and gender issues? How can we use dynamic writing to tell readers how God is actively working in a sinful world? Over this five-day course, we will explore how to report from a biblical perspective for both Christian and secular audiences. The course includes: Lectures by editors and reporters of WORLD Magazine and Radio, Practical writing exercises and editor feedback, Group discussion on Biblical ethics and challenges to writing and living as a Christian in a secular field.
