While every staff member shares in projection and production of the successive issues of CHRISTIANITY TODAY, a special burden falls each issue on editors with long experience and competence in special areas. This issue devoted to world evangelism reflects the helpful contribution of Associate Editor Harold Lindsell, who has spent a quarter of a century teaching and researching in missions. Dr. Lindsell has visited many of his 250 former students at their mission stations on far-flung fields of service. He is currently editing a volume to appear in the aftermath of the Congress on the Church’s Worldwide Mission just concluded at Wheaton, Illinois.
The news section carries out the theme with a broad survey of current developments on evangelistic frontiers. Two pages of illustrations include some striking work by Sam Tamashiro of World Outlook, who has generously aided our experiments in photojournalism.
This issue supplies important background perspective for the World Congress on Evangelism, which CHRISTIANITY TODAY is sponsoring in Berlin from October 26 to November 4 as a tenth-anniversary project. Participants have already been invited from ninety-two countries, and the number of nations represented may well exceed one hundred by the time the full quota of 1,250 participants is approved.
