Home Life Is
Name Of New
Magazine For
Christian Family
First issue of Home Life, a
magazine on Christian family liv
ing published by the Baptist Sun
day School board, has been re
ceived here, according to Dr. L. K.
Simpson, local Baptist pastor.
Designed as a popular monthly,
the colorful 32-page January num
ber will reach over 200,000 homes
in the South, according to the lo
cal
i ’’The global war has given the*
home the severest test, in the en
tire history of Christianity/’ Dr-
T. L. Holcomb, the Sunday School
Board’s executive secretary, write*,
in January Home Life. “In the'
light of these conditions we. are'
happy to preseht Home Life, A
Christian Family Magazine. We
believe that it will meet a need
and render a service to our
people that will prove very signif
icant.”
The publisher’s purpose, as-
stated by Dr. Holcomb, is “to
make Home Life one of the very
best magazines of its kind.”
Large in size and attractively
made up with an artistic use of
color on every page, the January
issue represents high quality in
magazine publishing. The cover
is a natural color family worship
scene.
Home Life is edited by Dr. Joe
W. Burton, who in the first num
ber states the magazine’s three
fold purpose to be to “set ou .
the characteristics of a Christian
home, demonstrate the values of
this manner of living and show
how a genuine Christian spir.
can be achieved in family living.”’
A native of Texas, with ten
years editorial experince with the?
Baptist Home Mission Board in
Atlanta, Dr. Burton has spent a
year in Nashville making plan.*
with Sunday School Board offici
als for the new publication.
The January cover announces
the first of a series of articles on
“The Changing Family” by Dr. T-
B. Maston, professor of sociology
Southwestern Baptist Seminary .
“Also one story, five articles, eigh -
features” are announced in the
January contents.
Inaugurating a policy of por
traying obscure homes that a.
successfully Christian, January
Home Life gives a full length
human interest sketch on ths
home of a Jackson, Tennessee,
plumber. Succeeding issues, Edi
tor Burton states, will give inti
mate pen pictures with photos of
little known Christian families.
Most prominent feature is “Al
tar Fires,” a section of daily de
votions for family worship. Th>
first issue carries questions on
home problems answered by Dr.
Jeff D. Ray of Fort Worth.
Articles include “Europe’s De
stroyed Home Life” by an UNRRA
consultant and a timely report on
the domestic housing situation by
a Baptist deacon housing exped.-
ter.
The January number includes a
guest editorial by the Southern
Baptist Convention president. Dr.
Louie D. Newton, and a page of
“Letters from Readers.”
