In keeping with recent tradition, we’re devoting our first issue of the new year to the place of books and reading in the Christian life. Alongside the annual CT Book Awards—which commend some of the previous year’s top titles in areas like theology, discipleship, apologetics, and missions—we’ve included adapted excerpts from several finalists. Other features analyze the popularity of self-help books among Christian audiences, survey the changing landscape of Christian fiction, and mount a case for better appreciating contemporary literature. As a bonus, we’ve asked eight accomplished Christian authors to daydream about a book they would love to write—even though, realistically, they’ll never pull it off.
