Today I offer a special thanks to our readers, writers and reviewers. After approximately 7 years as book review editor, I have resigned from this position in order to create more space in my life for new projects and adventures. As I welcome William Rodriquez as the new book review editor, I am pleased to feature his work in this issue. He provides an in-depth treatment of evangelical masculinity as analyzed by Kristin Kobes Du Mez in Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation and he brings his own scholarship to bear in an expansive discussion of the topic.
