Dear Reader,

The staff at First Things enjoyed a restful and blessed Christmas. Now we're back in the office. We're selecting the top articles of the year (to be published on Wednesday). We're fine-tuning our look, which you'll see beginning with our February issue. And we're getting closer to matching the commitment of $250,000 from a group of generous supporters. Donate between today and December 31 so First Things can unlock the full value of this match.

There are three days left in 2025. We are 40% of the way towards our goal. For those who make a gift of $250 or more we are offering a selection of books to choose from, including Paul Kingsnorth's Against the Machine. Your contribution allows First Things to implement our 2026 agenda in full.

A contribution before December 31 ensures First Things continues to thrive. I thank you for sustaining us with your generosity and support.
