Editor’s Note from September 12, 1975

News editor Edward E. Plowman co-authored Washington: Christians in the Corridors of Power, together with James Hefley. Believe it or not, God is at work in Washington. There are true believers in government and there is a dynamic witness in the world’s most powerful city. We need more Christians in government and more evangelism among Washington’s unconverted, plus prayer by God’s people everywhere for a nation in crisis. The publisher is Tyndale House; price $3.95.

Our lead editorial deals with the World Council’s Nairobi Assembly. My friend Donald McGavran in the July Church Growth Bulletin (can be secured at 3033 Scott Blvd., Santa Clara, CA 95050) has packed in it information about Nairobi that every Christian should read. A year’s subscription (6 issues) costs only $2.00.
