Letters From Our Readers
“Thanks for your excellent work with Christian Ethics Today. Foy Valentine would be proud and a lot of folks are proud. The publication is a spark of challenging light, a breath of inspiring air, a refreshing immersion in insightful thought. For folks such as I who live and strive to minister in the hinterland, CET is a connection to the minds beyond. Here is [a contribution] to help you with the bills. I would just buy fishing lures with it anyway!”

“Like always, Christian Ethics Today (Spring 2009) hit a home run! Excellent articles, good job.” Bernardo A. Moraga, CBF Church Engagement Specialist, Albuquerque, NM
“We read CET in our home. I am in the doghouse because I discarded a copy in which my wife was reading “When Death Becomes Birth.” Belinda’s dad passed away recently and this article was meaningful to her as she works through her grief. Would you send me another copy? [We did gladly]”

In our “Letters” file was also a small green card from several years ago, with this poem and a note: “I receive so much from others while my giving is so scant. I rest in the shade of trees which I do not plant. I feed from fields I do not till. I travel roads I do not build” Then this handwritten note: “Joe, I am debtor to you. H.B.” A card from Henelee Barnett that I shall always treasure. JET
