The award-winning Southern Baptist Texan is the official magazine of the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention.

As the most widely circulated Baptist publication in Texas, your advertisement will reach more than 47,000 homes and SBTC churches.

The print edition of the Southern Baptist Texan features two types of advertising: classified and display.

Classified Advertising

In each issue, we publish a list of job openings for Southern Baptists of Texas Convention churches. SBTC churches may submit their job openings at no charge, with listings publishing for two consecutive issues. Churches must contact us by the next issue’s deadline if they want their job listing to publish additional months.

Display Advertising

Display advertising is available in the print Texan and on the website. Rates are discounted for frequency. All inquiries related to display advertising should be sent to Tammi Ledbetter.

Deadline for reserving display advertising space is 21 days prior to the print date. Ad materials are due, in PDF or JPEG format at 300 DPI resolution, no later than 14 days before the print date. All ads must be camera-ready and submitted by email.

The Southern Baptist Texan is published by the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention and reserves the right to refuse ads for any reason.
