intellectually vigorous and faithful too July 7, 2003

This magazine asks the hard questions, and understands that many contemporary issues have no easy answer, even for the most committed and faithful Christians. How does a Christian think about cloning? What should a Christian think about war---and the Iraqi War?

The Century covers books, movies and news with consistent high quality. It brings in environmental authors like BIll McKibben, essayists Thomas Lynch, poets Denise Levertov and Kathleen Norris.

5 out of 5 stars best connection between faith and the real world June 30, 2003

To those who claim the Christian faith but find no "easy answers" to connecting faith to issues like cloning, war, poverty and the even the latest movies, book and political events---this magazine asks the hard questions and inspires too.

The Christian Century is a venerable institution in ecumenically-minded American Protestantism. The Century reviews a wide variety of books, offers commentary on public affairs, and keeps the Christian aware of the wider Church.

The Christian Century is a more progressive alternative to Christianity Today and the traditionalist approach the latter publication advocates. It reassures the reader long-wearied by the sectarianism of the right with the Century's ecumenically attentive content.

Worthy reading. An ideal gift for laity wanting to keep up with the "big picture", ministers and seminarians, and any person wanting to know what Christians think about the news of the day.
