ARTICLES
Putting together each issue of a Christian magazine like T h e K in g ' s B u s in e s s is a ticklish job. And an exciting one. Take our current articles on Seventh-day Adventism. As soon as the Eternity arti cles started some six months ago we moved into high gear. We wanted to get an answer into print as soon as possible but at the same time we determined the answer should be complete and accurate. And that meant time and work. When Dr. Talbot agreed to prepare the articles he put his full-time assistant (a former managing editor of T h e K in g ' s B u s i n e s s ) to work researching every avail able source. Piles of facts were assembled and then checked and rechecked. Then after the articles were turned over to our staff they were again checked by five members o f our editorial staff. The checking even continued after the type was set which meant, among other things, that the proofs were read at least 15 times. That’s a little of the story behind just one article. We take this trouble because we want to give you the best magazine we can. Why not help increase our outreach by giving just one gift subscription now? You may use the coupon below.
