With the mission of being a lighthouse, shining the light of Christ, The Christian View magazine has always published truth and good news and the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This publication was founded in 2004 by journalist Karen Brewer, as a way to use journalism to help share the Gospel message, share good news from the community, and assist other organizations helping others and sharing the Gospel. In hundreds of articles and more than 8,000 photographs, The Christian View magazine has featured more than 1,700 individuals and many churches and charitable organizations, through reporting on many events and through in-depth interviews with many individuals sharing about their lives and sharing their Christian faith. The Christian View magazine is locally and independently owned and operated in Pickens County, South Carolina and is one of four publications of Lighthouse Media, owned by Publisher Karen Brewer. 

The Christian View magazine is returning its focus to Christian-themed articles. Other stories, including coverage of local events, are published in The Pickens County Chronicle, a newspaper locally and independently owned and operated in Pickens County, South Carolina by Publisher Karen Brewer.
