Not your father's newsweekly,
By
This review is from: World (Magazine)
As an insatiable news junky and practicing Christian reader whose work takes me to many countries each year, I recently caved to my wife's insistence and began to read the World subscription that a relative had given us.
Alongside the Economist, Fortune, Money, Christianity Today, First Things, and the the internet news, World has quickly become a staple of my reading disciplines. This thin, edgy source of news and analysis intentionally views and argues the news from a biblically-informed world and life view. Any news - to say nothing of all data we process - comes to us through some default or chosen paradigm, so to make this observation is not to set World apart in nature from other magazines of its genre, just to be explicit about the lens its editors maneuver with a rather admirable sort of cunning and a voice that has coalesced and matured over the short years of the magazine's existence. For those who are somewhat familiar with the species and strains of Christian faith, it may help to note that World's particular lens is common to 'Reformed' faith. Essential features of this kind of Christian commitment include the conviction that 'all truth is God's truth'. An outcome of this is a full engagement with culture in all or most of its printable manifestations. So you'll get movie and literature reviews as well as news and analysis. One tribute to this weekly is the comment that you won't find pious prudishness, but rather a full frontal interaction with what Christians and others are reading, watching, thinking, and talking about. For this reason, the editorial line tacks with the kind of 'cultural conservatism' often dismissed by wonks and talking heads, without the Southern-Fried Christianity that is too often considered to be its only generative motive. Peek inside the credentials of its writers and opinion-makers and you'll find Ivy League credentials, minus the kow-towing. Don't make it your only news source. But do read World.

All The News From a Christian Perspective,
By
This review is from: World (Magazine)
I really enjoy World Magazine because they do a great job at reporting all the news though they are evangelical Christians, they don't shy away from stories that make Christians look bad. I feel that they are fair and balanced in their coverage. What's more, the style of reporting is professional, in-depth, and fair. I think the quality is on par if not even better than that of Time, Newsweek, or US News. And you don't get the liberal spin on things. You get a straitforward perspective on the news. I would strongly, strongly recommend that Christians subscribe to World Magazine. It will help educated and inform you about the world in which you live. When I have children and they are old enough to read, I will have them read World. And you should too.

Refreshing Perspective!!,
By
This review is from: World (Magazine)
"World Magazine" is not a copycat of Newsweek or Time, and it delivers the news from biblical viewpoints, albeit the reporters are not themselves perfect. However, in their reporting of the news, they take into account the Sovereignty of God and try to see things from His perspective.
The writers, such as Marvin Olasky, and Gene Edward Veith, do not shy away from the moral and spiritual issues which many times are at the heart of the issues, and they also report on the cultural, art, music, theatre, and political realms, as well as focus on the letters section and editorials. This is refreshing and filled with hope reporting, and I highly recommend those who have never read this magazine to give it a try. Even better, you can read the magazine on line, if you're so inclined. Great news source, and areas the mainstream media won't even touch!!!
