Reconsidering man as a spiritual being The third in a periodic series for serious students of theology who aren't scared to examine their most personal beliefs.
The author, a world renowned psychiatrist, will leave believers stronger in their faith and skeptics challenged and maybe even changed
reality check Why the death of pan-Arabism has sent unprecedented number of Christians to the Israeli military and the hard truth it reveals --- whether acknowledged or not
bright ideas Boycott those who would boycott Israel
tsk, tsk Ramallah Reality check
One of those marketing gurus I consulted to figure out how to get more folks to respond to our annual appeal was certain that you wouldn't read this note.
He said I should rather use as the headline something like "The end" or "It's over". Then follow-up with something like: "Not the site . . . but the appeal. Well, at least after tomorrow."
I told him that doing so was wrong. Not to mention it would leave most of my readers feeling played.
"Guidance" like that is one of the reasons I generally ignore "expert advice".
Heck, if I listened to all the know-it-alls, I'd never have launched JWR in the first place. I'd still be toiling in "mainstream media" covering mayhem and muck --- actually, being covered by it.
Sixteen years ago I decided to use my journalism skills to create a force for good.
This site has had its ups and downs, but it has survived.
It has only survived because of you.
I could go on and on about all of our features and motivating folks to be better and do good.
I don't think I need to.
You know what I do.
You are gaining from this site in so many ways.
I'm asking for your help to allow me to continue by expressing your generosity today via our secure server.
I have faith that you will come through. I just know you will.
I'd really hate to prove the marketing gurus correct and send out a letter with the subject line "It's over" ---- not as a ploy but for real.
