How to subscribe to the printed edition
With the recent re-launching of World Christian News (WCN), a former publication, the AD 2025 Global Monitor, which I edited from November 1990 to December 1998, reemerges in a new form within WCN.
To document progress of worldwide Christianity, a new global map, chart, diagram, or graph will be presented in every issue of WCN. For the most part these will have as their source our two major new 2001 publications, World Christian Encyclopedia and World Christian Trends (see sidebar).
Concepts explored in the briefings are more fully explained and documented in these two publications. Our intention is to continue monitoring the progress of Global Christianity, sometimes looking back to the past for context, and at other times, looking to the future for hope or inspiration.
