Sad news …

… John Wilson and Books & Culture – Snakes and Ladders. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

… Christianity Today International, the parent company of B&C, couldn’t make it work; nor did another buyer for the magazine come forth. This is an immensely distressing state of affairs, for anyone who cares about the state of Christian intellectual life, and I hope there will be some thoughtful post-mortems on the whole business. (Though what I really hope is for some deep-pocketed person or organization to decide that raising B&C from the dead is more important than giving money to Donald Trump or the RNC.)

 Most of the big money seems to be going in the other direction.
