Global Journal 19/1 will be our “Canadian Issue,” featuring just one (but a particularly important) article by Canadian scholar Jeremy Hexham.  Your editor served three years as chairman of the history department of the then Waterloo Lutheran University, an hour west of Toronto; his debate with philosophy professor Avrum Stroll at the University of British Columbia led to the initial publication of essays that would eventuate in the editor’s widely-read book  History, Law and Christianity; an issue of the Canadian Christian Legal Journal was devoted to his apologetics contributions; and—most important—following the sad decease of his wife Lanalee last year, he has just remarried–to Carol Maughan, a retired Canadian school teacher.  Thus, the next issue of the Global Journal is justified on multiple counts!
