Editor’s Note from May 20, 1977

Our Books section in this issue features an informative review of five books on the question of the Christian in politics. While the focus is on the United States, the questions relate to Christians in every nation.

Two essays have to do with the Church’s outreach. What Keith Phillips says about the exodus of white evangelical churches from the inner city (he does not mention, incidentally, the continuing presence of many black evangelical churches) and what Don Hillis says about overevangelized America should make you stop and think.

Our new editorial address as of June 20 will be: 465 Gundersen, Carol Stream, Illinois 60187. News-related correspondence should continue to be sent to 1014 Washington Building, Washington, D.C. 20005.

The CT archives are a rich treasure of biblical wisdom and insight from our past. Some things we would say differently today, and some stances we've changed. But overall, we're amazed at how relevant so much of this content is. We trust that you'll find it a helpful resource.
