Every week, First Things receives press releases about events that our readers might find of interest. In the past, we’ve uploaded individual posts about some of these events, but we’ve decided to consolidate this information into one post every Friday. So check back each Friday for notices about more exciting events. In the meantime, enjoy these fine offerings:

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.
