An evangelist without a plan is not an evangelist at all, to modify Nietzsche.”
Why Lewis Didn’t Write for CT – “I wish your project heartily well,” wrote C.S. Lewis to Christianity Today, “but can’t write you articles.” Carl F.H. Henry, founding editor of the magazine, had invited Lewis in 1955 to contribute to the magazine’s first issue. Lewis declined.
It is a sad thing to be Christians at a supper, heathens in our shops, and devils in our closets.
