Christian publisher NavPress, a division of the Colorado Springs-based U.S. Navigators, has laid off an unknown number of workers and will discontinue publishing its two magazines.

NavPress announced Friday it would no longer publish Discipleship Journal and Pray!

Michael D. Miller, NavPress president and Navigators senior vice president, said in a news release that the business has been hit hard by Internet competition and the economic downturn.

He couldn't be reached for additional comment. Dean Ridings, a communications employee, said more information would be available Monday.

It's a very sad day for many of us--both writers and readers--to hear this news. Praying for the employees. To people like Tyler who left the message "Good," Tyler, you have no idea how you have been blessed by the Christians around you or by the fact this nation was founded on Christian principles. No idea. Praying God's mercy on you.
