Saltus Fidei

by S. M. Hutchens

Don't call anyone a Man of Faith because he believes God makes a practice of overruling the laws of good sense. When someone brews up a pot of stupidity, however, the Lord, being a good father, generally lets him stew in it for a while.

S. M. Hutchens is a senior editor and longtime writer for Touchstone.

"There are magazines worth reading but few worth saving . . . Touchstone is just such a magazine."
—Alice von Hildebrand

"Here we do not concede one square millimeter of territory to falsehood, folly, contemporary sentimentality, or fashion. We speak the truth, and let God be our judge. . . . Touchstone is the one committedly Christian conservative journal."
