The magazine has a new<br \/>\norientation with well-defined sections and a new color palette. <\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><i>Editor-in-Chief David Neff says, &#8220;Redesign a magazine and<br \/>\nyou could disorient some readers. But we hope that the redesigned Christianity Today will quickly give the<br \/>\nreader a better sense of orientation. We believe the magazine is easier to use<br \/>\nand more thoughtful than ever.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><i>Lead designer, Gary Gnidovic, says, &#8220;Although we&#8217;d been<br \/>\nconsidering a redesign of Christianity<br \/>\nToday for a couple of years, the beginning of 2009 felt like the right time<br \/>\nto begin the process. Sometimes a publication&#8217;s design can evolve slowly, but<br \/>\nperiodically, because of changing editorial needs, or even cultural shifts, it<br \/>\nis good to completely rethink how one is approaching the content structurally<br \/>\nand visually. In CT&#8217;s 50-year history there have been only 5 or 6 complete<br \/>\nredesigns. We hope that the reader will find this new CT to feel fresh and<br \/>\nvital, and with a greater degree of orientation to the content.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><!--EndFragment-->\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christianity Today is my favorite Christian publication &#8212; it has exceptional leadership and editors, solid articles from across the spectrum, and a real keen eye for what&#8217;s not only happening but is what to happen.
