Summary: A deep well for thirsty Christians
Comment: After being a Touchstone subscriber for several months, I read this book and keep coming back to these essays. For those deeply dissatisfied with modern American society, these writings are a long draught of refreshingly cold water.
Leon Podles' piece on the practicalities of homeschooling is a good read for those considering teaching their children at home. A good companion piece is Patrick Henry Reardon's look at what's wrong in America's public schools.
I was particularly drawn to David Mill's piece on the "Latcons" - those seemingly conservative folks who somehow manage to stay within their increasingly liberal mainline denominations. Having recently left the Episcopal Church, USA, and in the process of converting to Eastern Orthodoxy, it was a hearty reminder of why I had left.
The whole book is excellent. Whether you read it all in one sitting (as I first did) or in bits, Creed & Culture deserves a permanent place on your bookshelf.

Summary: Sharply relevant to the twenty-first century
Comment: Compiled and edited by James M. Kushiner (Executive Editor of "Touchstone: A Journal of Mere Christianity" and Executive Director of the Fellowship of St. James), Creed & Culture: A Touchstone Reader is an impressive collection of twenty-one essays contributed by a diverse variety of learned authors. Each individually written work originally appeared in "Touchstone" magazine, a forum for ecumenical discussion of matters pertaining to Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox Christians. From religion, atheism, and public schools, to the ecclesiastical vision of John Chrysostom, to the difficulties encountered with Latitudinarian Conservatives, and more, Creed & Culture offers non-specialist general readers with an insightful and perspicacious work which is sharply relevant to the twenty-first century. Creed & Culture is an especially recommended addition to personal Christian Studies reading lists and Religious Studies reference collections.
