The Whale, the Churchman & the Crisis

We're essentially finished with our electronic archive of old Touchstone issues. The latest batch to "go live" include:

Patrick Henry Reardon's The Beached Whale
H. Wayne Martindale's C. S. Lewis: Reluctant Churchman
S. M. Hutchens The Crisis of Evangelical Preaching included in CTi's 1990 book, Best in Theology, Volume 4, edited by J. I. Packer.)

It was a pity these weren't read by more people way back in 1989. Now, they can be read by many more.

Thanks for getting this material posted, Jim. Going back and looking at my Crisis of Evangelical Preaching, written in the late eighties, makes me aware of some modifications I would make if I were writing the same thing today. Maybe Pat would say the same of his famous Beached Whale--or in that case, an "I told you so" might be in order. But we've been on the road long enough now so that something on the order of Augustine's "reconsiderations" might make an interesting article.

1988? My, just substitute "homosexual" for "female" in Patrick Reardon's article, and you will see how the editors' comments remain as pertinent today as they were twenty years ago.
