Letter From The Publisher

Letter From The Publisher

In the course of over a year and a half, I have had an amazing journey as the Publisher of Katy Christian Magazine and Fort Bend Christian Magazine. In many ways, I can’t believe how quickly time has passed. 

Over the past 18 months, I have been blessed by experiences and opportunities that I will always remember. The people I have met and the stories I have heard have touched my life in ways I could never have imagined; I simply cannot thank you all enough for allowing me the opportunity to and for allowing me to help spread the word of God to our viewers. 

There is nothing in this world that brings me more happiness than to help others and spread the word of God. When I was offered the opportunity to help Christian businesses grow and spread family friendly news, I jumped on it. It just felt right; it was where the Lord directed me that season. 

Now, God is calling me to a new season in life. It is with great sadness that I announce that this will be my last issue working with both publications. While I’m sad to leave, I’m continually encouraged by the mission and vision of both publications. I encourage our readers to join together and continue to support Katy Christian Magazine and Fort Bend Christian Magazine, and to help both publications continue to bring you family friendly news with an eternal purpose. 

As many of you are aware, Katy Christian Magazine and Fort Bend Christian Magazine are the only Christian magazines in the West Houston area and we need your help to continue to spread the Gospel in times such as these. Understand that KCM and FBCM are ministries in our community just as much as they are businesses. We are here to help you grow your business and bring hope to your families, letting you know that God does still exist and he hears your prayers.

Please continue to pray for my family and I as we begin our new journey. Please know that I will continue to pray you, our readers, and don’t be surprise if you see a few articles occasionally from me in the future.

Joseph Menslage

As the President and Publisher of Katy and Fort Bend Christian Magazines, Joe Menslage is committed to covering social and political news from a Christian worldview. He founded Katy Christian Magazine in 2005, which swept the greater Houston and Katy areas like a storm. That’s when Joe realized the urgent need for publications willing to give voices to the voiceless, without political correctness or censorship. Joe Menslage founded sister-publication Fort Bend Christian Magazine in 2014. Prior to creating Katy Christian Magazine, Joe Menslage led a colorful life. He was born in Lake Charles, Louisiana, spent a great deal of his childhood in Colorado, and lived in a couple of other states before he moved to Houston in 1981. Joe was God-gifted with an entrepreneurial mind, and self-started other business ventures before he found his calling. In Joe’s words, our innate talents are given by the Lord, and are meant to be used to serve the Lord. Aside from being a President and Publisher, Joe Menslage is also the co-founder of Katy Christian Chamber of Commerce, where Christians can network, build business connections, listen to passionate speakers, and enjoy monthly breakfasts and lunches. Joe Menslage also hosts a weekly political satire YouTube channel. Joe Menslage has four children. Outside of work, he enjoys hiking, watching zombie movies and K dramas, ax-throwing and Krav Maga.
