Summary
Doxa Score No concerns found

The newsletter is a roundup of personal news and excerpts from other writers: a golf match with the author's son, Pope Leo XIV's request for a mail ballot, incarcerated women graduating from Northwestern, Dictionary.com's word of the year, a profile of a death-penalty mitigation specialist, and a historian's reconsideration of Constantine. In his own voice the author mainly commends Daniel K. Williams' study of Christianity Today. That study ties the magazine's decline to the broader decline of midwestern evangelicalism rather than only to recent editorial decisions.

  • Endorses a source· Daniel K. Williams

    Daniel K. Williams' study of Christianity Today is a fine account, showing that the magazine's troubles stem less from recent editorial decisions than from the broader decline of the midwestern evangelical movement it was founded to serve.
