Dear Reader,
 
First Things is more than a magazine. When I claim as much, I don’t just mean to say that in addition to the magazine, we have a website that reaches nearly 4 million each year (although we do), or that we host well-loved podcasts, events, and Intellectual Retreats every year—although we do that, too.
 
First Things is more than a magazine: It’s a community committed to truth.
 
Our community includes women and men dedicated to reknitting the ties that bind. As Protestants, Catholics, and Jews, we may draw from different theological wellsprings, but we are united in the belief that an ever-deeper conformity to God’s will makes us freer and more fully human.
 
Will you support the First Things community by making a gift today?
 
If you’ve already contributed to our year-end campaign, please know how grateful I am for your support. Gifts from readers like you allow us to invest in the hard work of further cultivating and strengthening a real community of readers bearing witness to the truth.

Sincerely,


R. R. Reno, Editor
First Things
