To find the answer, you’ll have to come to this year’s Merton Lecture at Columbia University on Monday, October 17, which will be delivered by our editor, R. R. Reno. Following in the vein of some of his recent writing , the lecture will likely be deeply-considered and perhaps even a bit provocative.
This event is free and open to the public. It begins at 7:30 p.m. in St. Paul’s Chapel on the Columbia campus.
We look forward to seeing many of our readers from the New York area (and any other interested parties) there.
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.
