Other religious journals may well envy CHRISTIANITY TODAY for the competence of its editorial staff (at one stage three members were Who’s Who personalities). Every other month one or another staff member is invited to join some other enterprise. We consider this a compliment to our gifted colleagues, who regard CHRISTIANITY TODAY as far and away the most strategic thrust in the religious journalism field today.
It is always a pleasure to reward good performance. Beginning in this issue, the masthead lists as assistant editors Dr. James M. Boice and Dr. Robert L. Cleath. Both are members of the United Presbyterian Church, and both combine theological competence with literary skill and critical insight. Boice holds the A.B. from Harvard, B.D. from Princeton, and D. Theol. (insigni cum laude) from Basel; Cleath holds the B.A. from Northwestern College, M.A. from University of Oregon, B.D. from San Francisco Theological Seminary, and Ph.D. from University of Washington. Boice’s doctorate was in New Testament, with a dissertation on “The Idea of Witness in the Gospel of John.” Cleath’s doctorate was in the field of speech: rhetoric and public address, and his dissertation analyzed the persuasive speaking of “Earl Browder, American Spokesman for Communism, 1930–1945.”
Listed on the masthead for the first time is Miss Janet Rohler, B.A. from Shelton College in literature, whose duties as editorial assistant include the processing of letters for “Eutychus and His Kin.” She is the second distaff representative. Miss Carol Friedley, an English major from Houghton College, has served as our able copy editor for over five years. Congratulations.
