This is our Christmas issue—our twenty-second; the 1977th year of the Saviour’s birth. Christina Rossetti wrote: “Born in a stable, / Cradled in a manger, / In the world His hands had made, / Born a stranger.” Two millennia later, he is still a stranger to the almost three billion people who have never heard of him or his salvation. Will we tell them of him?
To our loyal readers to whom Jesus is both Saviour and friend we say: a merry Christmas and a happy new year!
While we pray for peace, we need moral clarity about this war.
Church movements need magnetic leaders. But the best leaders need more than charm.
Postliterate people still need God’s Word, and online Bible ventures have found eager listeners.
