Her breadth of experience embraces both rigorous intellectual witness and compassionate service, reflecting the incarnational heart of the Gospel—Christ with us, working through us.

While her appointment marks the first woman to serve in this role at the publication, it also holds the promise of new horizons in representation, diversity and prophetic voice.

We proclaim: the universe truly favors the bold—so let us stand with Dr. Martin as she leads into this new season, rooted in Christ’s eternal purpose, engaged with the shifting cultural sands, and anchored in justice, reconciliation and renewal.

May her tenure be a conduit of fresh wind in the body of Christ, a bridge for the global and the local, and a beacon of hope for those long overlooked. With joy we say: well-done and go forth in power, Dr. Nicole Massie Martin!
