Great Deal from Crisis Magazine

[phatcatholic]

the most recent Crisis Magazine e-letter had an offer that i wanted to share w/ everyone:[list]Finally, in last week's letter, I recommended getting your hands on
faithful Catholic reading material. It's probably no surprise that
I'd put Crisis Magazine high up on that list.

Nevertheless, I know that magazine subscriptions can be expensive,
and that people have a limited amount of time for reading. Fair
enough.

So with that in mind, I want to make you a special offer... one
we've made in the past.

Right now, we'll give you a 1-year subscription to Crisis Magazine
for $10.

Yes, just $10. That's less than the cost of lunch here in DC. It's
also less than 1/3 the price of most Catholic publications.

Of course, if you're already a Crisis reader, I'll happily extend
your subscription for a year for the same $10 (you didn't think I was
going to leave you out, did you?).

And if you want to give a gift subscription for $10, we can do that
as well. Why not get a subscription for your pastor? Or the parish
library (to counteract some of the nonsense that may be on the
shelves)? Or a friend who you think might enjoy Crisis' mix of
faithful Catholic journalism and opinion? Or maybe give a
subscription to your college-bound child or grandchild... especially
if he or she is heading to a secular or barely-Catholic school.

There are a lot of possibilities here... and it's only $10.

If you've been putting off getting or renewing a subscription to
Crisis, now is the time to act. I can only make this offer for one
week, so it ends at Noon EST, Wednesday, July 20.

But before I tell you how to take advantage of the $10 deal, let me
add one more incentive...

If you get a new subscription, give a gift subscription, or renew
your current one, I'll also send you a free copy of The Best of
Crisis Magazine, Volume 1. (With a gift subscription, we'd mail the
bonus gift to the recipient of the subscription.)

The Best of Crisis Magazine, Volume 1 contains eight of the best
articles from the past several years. In it, you'll find...

*** An investigation into the possible location of the Ark of the
Covenant. This small church in Ethiopia says they have it, and
they've got some intriguing historical evidence to back up the claim.
Our writer visited the church, and interviewed the monk charged with
protecting the artifact.

*** The real history of the Crusades. This popular and
frequently-cited article gives you the facts on this controversial
period in Church history. Were the Crusades really the bloody
land-grab the secular world claims? Or was there more to the
story...

*** A bombshell expose' of "Pro-Choice" Catholic politicians. Our
author confronts Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Barbara Mikulski and others
at the senate. You'll be shocked by how they try to squirm out of his
questions. Well... maybe not shocked.

*** A look at the claim that Pope John Paul I was murdered. There
are some questions about his death... Was the mortician called one
hour BEFORE the pope's body was discovered? And why were objects from
his bedroom missing? Our author evaluates the evidence and reaches a
verdict.

*** The hard evidence that there's a medical link between abortion
and breast cancer. Here's the article Planned Parenthood doesn't want
you to see.

*** A daring inside look at the underground Catholic Church in
China. Our writer had to sneak past Chinese police to interview a
prominent underground bishop. This piece won an award from the
Catholic Press Association for best article of the year.

You'll find all these articles -- and two more -- in the Best of
Crisis, Volume 1.

I'll send it to you for free, with your $10 subscription or renewal
order. Unfortunately, we have a limited number of copies of the Best
of Crisis, so if you want one, please put your order in immediately.
Once we run out, they're gone.

So, for $10, you'll get a year's subscription to the flagship
publication for faithful Catholics... as well as a copy of the Best
of Crisis, Volume 1.

But you'll need to act now. Click here to place your order:

P.S. By the way, please feel free to forward this email around, or
post it on your blog or website. We want to make this offer available
to anyone who might benefit from it.

overall, its a good magazine. sometimes, its more political than catholic, or even political-catholic, but if you are a convervative you probably won't mind. karl keating said in his e-letter that occasionally Crisis mag does not relate the political articles back to the Church, so it can be confusing to determine what the actual mission of the magazine is. but, it is faithful to the Church, and $10 is a good deal.

pax christi,

I love Crisis magazine! I have a bunch of back-issues sitting here on my desk. They actually had a job opening a few weeks ago for an Assistant Editor *swoon* but I'm sure someone got it.

photo...........what do u think about my assessment of crisis mag? do you think they get too political sometimes, w/o tying their political arguments back to church teaching?

it's definitely not "all Catholicism, all the time..." there are some articles that seem to be politics for the sake of politics. But I don't mind since the people who write for CRISIS are faithful Catholics.
