This is Suicide Prevention Week, and tomorrow is Suicide Prevention Day. Who knew? Have you seen any publicity about this important work? I sure haven’t.
That begs a question: Why has suicide prevention become almost invisible? Part of the blame goes to the corrosive impact of the assisted suicide movement. But the suicide prevention community itself must shoulder part of the blame because it has remained generally silent about the issue. I provide details over at Secondhand Smoke .
While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.
Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?
Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.
How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.
