Greetings Rubicon community!

The start of something new

Thanks for your notes of encouragement and pledges of continued support as theRubicon editing baton is passed. I have become familiar with many of you through your posts and comments and I look forward to corresponding with more of you in the future.

The vision and commitment of Geoff and Bramwell Ryan and their editorial team in getting theRubicon to this point is nothing short of extraordinary, and I am humbled by their trust in the new team to carry on such a legacy. The great news is that Geoff will now be able to do more writing for theRubicon along with more thinking about other innovative projects of which I’m sure we will all ultimately benefit.

As many of you would know from my regular articles, I am a passionate contributor to theRubicon and a true believer in the free speech ethos of the publication. If The Salvation Army (and the Christian church in general) is to survive and thrive into the future I believe that it is important to promote such open and honest dialogue. We are called to be people of the truth after all.

First and foremost, theRubicon is for you and about you and your experience and ministry and I want to encourage your sense of ownership of the site. While we will keep the current format and style, my team are very open to anything that will make the site more accessible and stimulating. Please send your thoughts, suggestions or posts at anytime to rubiconeditor@gmail.com.

Please also encourage your friends, comrades and family members to follow the site and if they would like to contribute, we will be more than happy to nurture new writing talent (we all had to start somewhere!).

Hopefully you will notice very little change over the next few months. If there are any technical glitches please bear with us as there are many complexities going on beneath the surface of the published site.

On your behalf and mine I’d like to wish Geoff, Bramwell and any other retiring edit-team members all the very best for the future and thank them for their vision, diligence, commitment and personal sacrifice in making theRubicon the site it is today.
