Conciliar Press formed in Шаблон:Date as the publishing arm of the New Covenant Apostolic Order, a group of thousands of Evangelical Christians who were in the process of adopting a historic, liturgical approach to Christianity and eventually renamed themselves the Evangelical Orthodox Church (EOC). With the reception of the EOC into the Antiochian Archdiocese in Шаблон:Date, Conciliar Press became part of the archdiocese.Шаблон:Refn

Ancient Faith Radio began in Шаблон:Date in the home of John Maddex, a former division manager of Moody Institute's 35 radio stations, who was attending All Saints Antiochian Orthodox Church in Chicago. Its initial form was Internet streaming of Orthodox liturgical music, with podcasts being added in Шаблон:Date with recordings of homilies from Fr. Patrick Henry Reardon, pastor of All Saints Church.

In Шаблон:Date, Conciliar Press merged with Ancient Faith Radio to form Conciliar Media Ministries, becoming fully a department of the Antiochian Archdiocese. With the better brand recognition of the Ancient Faith brand, in Шаблон:Date, the merged ministry was renamed Ancient Faith Ministries and the press division renamed Ancient Faith Publishing.Шаблон:R
