began to publish it. In 1990, the column got a major break. It was picked up by thein London, England, a national paper in the United Kingdom that, at the time, was privately owned by Otto Herschan who also owned thea national paper in Scotland. With that, the column now had a home in six newspapers in five countries, nationally in three of them.

, both national papers in Canada, picked up the column in 1992. To my mind, that was circulation enough. However, after the publication ofin the USA in 1999, the column’s circulation exploded. Within three years, it was being carried by more than sixty newspapers in more than ten countries. That has since grown to more than eighty papers. Since 2008, the column has also been published in both Spanish and Vietnamese and is finding a readership in Vietnam, in Mexico, and in parts of Latin America.

I owe a debt of gratitude to a lot of people but need to single out several to thank specially. First, a deep thanks to theand its then editor, Glenn Argan. It was the first newspaper and Glenn Argan was the first editor to take a chance on me, an unknown prairie boy with little in the way of sophisticated credentials or contacts.

Truth be told, when I first began writing this column, I was probably more solicitous about bringing a column to birth than about helping bring God’s kingdom to birth. Our motivation is perennially in need of purification. I hope that I have matured in this area during these forty years and my biggest thank you of all goes out to you, the reader.
