Jerry Jenkins reaffirms annual contribution to fund scholarship with an increase to $3,000
The Evangelical Press Association believes that Christian students should be prepared to be outstanding journalists and communications professionals, equipped with a biblically-based philosophy of journalism and the skills, knowledge and experience they will need to effectively communicate a Christ-centered worldview to their audience.
The Jerry Jenkins Scholarship Fund was established and is funded annually by best-selling author and former EPA president Jerry Jenkins (1980-81). Jenkins is the former editor of Moody Magazine and founding editor of Today’s Christian Woman. For 2025, the annual award has been raised to $3,000.
The Douglas J. Trouten Memorial Scholarship was established to honor the former executive director of EPA (2002-2013). The amount varies from year to year but grants generally range from $500 to $1,000.
Candidates must be majoring or minoring in journalism or communications. Preference is given to, but not restricted to, students with an interest in the field of Christian journalism.
The deadline to apply is March 10. The awards will be presented at the annual convention.
