Looking Ahead: August 30, 1968

The last three issues of Volume XII of CHRISTIANITY TODAY, of which this is one, will be unusually large. This issue serves as the Fall education number, and has an eye on Labor Day concerns as well; in addition, it contains the last bind-in booklet in the “Fundamentals of the Faith” series. The next issue, dated September 13, will be the Fall Book Issue. The September 27 issue, which concludes Volume XII, will contain the annual index.

At month-end, Dr. Carl F. H. Henry and Mrs. Henry will fly to England, for a year of theological research and writing in Cambridge. Dr. Harold Lindsell, who with Mrs. Lindsell has been leading a tour party through Bible Lands, will then take up his new duties, with full responsibility for the October 11 anniversary issue, which begins Volume XIII.
