I Depart from the Masthead of First Things

As of February 28, my position as Senior Editor at First Things will end. Such is the publishing world: the challenge of producing a well-printed book of nearly a hundred pages in a world of sound-bites and digital images compels the journal to undertake major economies. I’ve been invited to contributed free-lance in the future and plan to do so.

I’ve been on leave since Thanksgiving writing a book which, God willing, should be out this summer.

Many thanks to all the many contributors to this forum.
