Well, winner of the Buckley Award , anyway. Ryan, a former assistant editor and now a member of our Advisory Council, was one of the five people awarded the Young Conservative Coalition’s award for young conservative leaders. The biography included mentions his “influence and ‘courage under fire’,” noting the way he handled himself when under attack by Piers Morgan. (If you have had a similar experience, you will know how impressive Ryan’s performance was.) The quickest way to summarize his gifts and accomplishments is just to say that we’re very, very, very glad he’s one of us.
Congratulations to Ryan.
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
